Can this computer play Amnesia? - TheBlastPassage - 10-19-2012

I really want to play Amnesia but none of the computers I have can run it. I am considering buying the Alienware X51. It's CPU is Intel Core 13 with 3.3GHz. It's video card is GDDR5 NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 1GB.

Well if it can run Mass Effect 3, it can also run Amnesia: the dark descent.

So I'm pretty sure that computer can play Amnesia.

That computer should be able to run the game. The card is very advanced, so Amnesia will likely work without a hitch.

It says Windows 8 x64. Keep in mind that Amnesia has not been tested with these Windows. However, with the correct drivers it should work just fine.

Thanks. I could have sworn it was running Windows 7 x64. I really don't like Windows 8 for gaming because the last time I used it, it was completely incapable of running and OpenGL games.
