Your graphics card is low-end and similar performance-wise to an Intel HD 3000. You will be able to play the game at low settings. Everything else is fine.

My PC is outdated as hell (6 years actually, maybe less, idk really) because I don't use it for gaming.

Athlon 64 X2 4800+
4GB RAM
Geforce 9600GSO 768mb
Windows 7 x86

However I was able to run The Dark Descent at high settings without any problem, no slowdowns or anything, it was running very smoothly. No clue for AMFP though.

Your graphics card supports OpenGL 2.1 so make sure you have the latest Nvidia drivers installed. The game should run then with no problems at lower settings. The rest are fine probably (the cpu is below requirements but should be ok).

Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs now available on Can You Run It? - AMD!

If you want to test your system and learn that can you run the game, you can visit the site made by AMD.

Here is the link to AMD's official Can You Run It?:

It it not always true, but you can give it a shot.

Last I checked, that's why this topic is here. Because those sites aren't reliable. Systemrequirementslab tells me I am below minimum for Smite, yet I play it. BTW, I also "fail" on my CPU and GPU for Outlast but I can play that on low settings and on 1280x720 very smoothly.

So yeah, bad sites are bad.

Edit: It should also be noted that none of those sites, not even Steam, have updated the minimum and recommended specs that were updated here days ago.

Any site that scans your hardware and tells you if you can run games or not are generally not going to be reliable, both because they're usually not very precise and often scan wrong, and because games are usually playable to some extent even if you don't technically meet the requirements, especially since the requirements for this game are higher than most other companies usually put their requirements at.

Don't check it on Systemrequirementslab, check AMD's Can You Run It?.
But when I had my old computer, I was wanting to play a game incredibly, this site said you can't. I was angry, I bought the game but I couldn't play.

But yeah, you are right, you can't trust everytime.

The game will work really good on medium. Good games.

You are right, you can read my post which I replied to Geoff.

Dude, AMD's "Can You Run It" IS Systemrequirementslab.

And considering I play Smite constantly and the site says I fall below minimum requirements, I don't trust it anymore.
