Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 3

In my humble opinion, you're making problems that do not exist, since AAMFP is pretty similar to TDD and it will run well on almost all computers.

AND, if this can help calming you, I tried to play Amnesia even in a 2006 Mac Mini with an Intel chipset from 2005 and 64 MB of VRAM shared, and it works really well with medium settings. So.. don't you worry.

Do you have a minimum spec and recommended spec for people with AMD CPUs? There are a lot of us out there ..... not everybody has i5 and i7 Intels.

I figure they have tested it on processors with low IPC (per core performance per clock)
Again since the title is not directx based offloading to the graphics card will be all it does only things that require complicated calculations will be done on the cpu.

I have an AMD Athlon II X4 635 2.90 GHz, is it good enough to play AAMFP?

Athlon II is a relative of the Phenom II the difference is in the number of pci-e lanes(irrelevant) and the cache configuration.
They are good budget procs no need to worry for you.
It depends on gpu a lot more.

GT650M is relatively new and one thing the Kepler line up is good at is games.
It will do very well for sure.

._. Did you just say that? Well at least it made me feel a bit better now.
Still, the requirements threw me off my chair...

That's good, i run TDD with High settings and no lag. I think i'll get the same result with Pigs.

Yes, that's my major concern, currently I only have integrated graphics (Radeon HD 4200) and I play Amnesia on medium settings.
Hopefully if boyfriend buys new GPU card, he'll give me his current one (Radeon HD 6xxx series). But that's probably not gonna happen in the near future, so I guess I'll just play AAMFP on his PC. Big Grin

Spoiler below!

Can I run AAMFP with these specs?

A bit off-topic, but why is Googol banned?

Seems fair enough to me. Are there any other recent games you can play on your set-up?

Generally speaking integrated GFX are not designed for playing games...
