    as a secondary and backup computer, i put together 2 to see how they would run the game.

    PC1 - built into a mini itx silverstone case:
    i72600 - free
    case- free
    8gbs ddr3 - £10
    corsair vs550 - £30
    r9380 4gb - £30
    120gb ssd - free
    500gb hdd - free

    yes I paid £70 for it, but if you dig around you can find mighty good deals on places like facebook market place and ebay.
    the i7, and ram were from the same pc. i paid £50 for a hp pavilion hpe with the i7, the machine without the parts is worth £70 so I basically got a free i7

    it gets a solid 60fps on gridmap at max settings and around 50 - 60 on other maps again max settings


    PC2 - based on a dell precision t3500
    case, motherboard, psu - £35
    24gbs ddr3 - £24
    xeon x5670 - £10
    gtx 650ti boost - £10
    120gb ssd -free

    this pc I also got for cheap

    also runs the game at a solid 40fps on max settings


    it goes to show that budget should not be a priority. for under £100 you can have a decent pc that will run the game.

    btw the free ssds i got from dead pcs at work, they are run into the ground these ssds hence free

    ... I mean.. it is a crashing simulator.. :rolleyes:.. buuuuut, what exactly happens when it crashes? And what error does it give?



    Coming from a person who uses:
    Toshiba Satellite c850
    Intel i3 3110m
    1GB AMD Radeon 7610m (outdated drivers and slightly overclocked using msi afterburner)
    4gb ram at 1600mhz single channel.
    Blah blah blah.

    I had an A10, radeon intergrated graphics, 8gb of ram at unknown speed. Also, make sure you can put more ram in. Thats what made me take an msi over lenovo.
