how sure is systemreqlab?

i went to systemsrequirementlab and checked to see if my laptop could handle warhammer online it said i could and it had it to about 80% passing, and i was wondering how sure that site is, i have athlon 64x2 1.9ghz processor, ati x1250, 3g ram, and 250hd. any input would be nice, oh also running vista 32bit w/aero

 

my personal opinion is that it's useful as a guide but it is not always perfect

 

It's useless.

All it does is compare your system to a box's idea of what can run it.

 

What it does is only compare your system specification with the official specification requirement of the game. Thus, even when it pass it does not necessary reflect playability in real world.

 

agreed, it's useless.

 

seconded

 

third that, you can have a 8500gt with 1GB of video ram, and it will tell u you can run crysis better than a 8800gt with 512mb of vram

 

I don't think you'll be able to run warhammer onliner with even the lowest settings sorry. Here's a good place to ask about whether games will run or not

 

Hi.

I can run battlefiled2 on a 64mb card, but the manufactures min spec is 128mb and systemreqlab uses these values.

well i hope it works cause i'm about to go get the game lol

 

Just wanted anyone who cared to know that Warhammer Online runs perfectly with no lag whatsoever i took some screen shots but i don't know how to display the fps.

 

Hi.

Download Fraps from the link below, it will show your FPS as you play the game.

I didn't change any setting i just left it the way it was, i check fraps and mine were at around an average of 16fps i dunno if thats good or bad, i haven't had any problems that i know of and i've done a public quest and RvR thing and didn't experience any lag. oh well its all good. i think i like my dwarf a little better than my drk elf. lol XD.

 

16 fps is really good for your card, people generally need 30+(shooting games) but hey if your happy with that kind of performance then go for it

Just out of curiosity how many fps do you get on the lowest settings?

 

Glad to hear that it turns out fine, enjoy the game!

 

ok so apparently i was mistaken about a couple things, first my system automatically set the settings to the lowest settings, when i showed that picture where everything was set to highest it was because the little custom 1 button was clicked, so i took pictures showing the menus for the different settings picked, also a couple with fraps showing some fps and yeah, i turned the game on high settings but it didn't change anything as far as i could see except it added shadows. I know i said before that my fps were an average of 16fps but when i do something in the game they go down to i dunno 5 or 6 or something, i know this sounds bad lol but its not really, i would post a video but i don't know how to record one. Also i noticed a little thing that says gpu texture i don't know what it is also it will not let me change it so w/e.
