    Hey guys,
    I'm a bit of a PC noob but I've been in love with Fallout 3 and will soon be buying Fallout: New Vegas. I had bought Fallout 3 on a 360 that my bro took with him to University so I am left with no console to game on. I have got a steam account and was thinking of getting Fallout: New Vegas on PC and was wondering if this would run it. I'm not too bothered about how it looks so long as it will run smoothly.

    Dell Studio 1558
    Windows 7 Premium 64-bit
    BIOS: ver 1.00 BIOS AO6 PARTTBLr
    Processor: Intel (R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M450 @ 2.4 GHz (4CPUs) - 2.4 GHz
    Memory: 4096MB ram (not sure what that is in GB but I think its 4???)
    DirectX 11
    Video Card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470

    I think that's all the info I need to give.... if you need any more just ask

    Thanks very much :)

    It will run fine on default settings. (Medium) You might even be able to raise some settings to high depending on your res.

    yeah it'll run.

    depending on your resolution and how well the 5470 does it could get to medium.

    i5 450m is plenty strong enough, processor wise
