Spec Requirements for COH?


Call Me Awesome

I may buy a new laptop today and Im wondering if some could either point me to the spec requirements, or cut & paste them here....to run the game in ultra mode.

Thanks!

Well, any modern laptop should be fine on CPU & RAM. The sticking point is the video card... COH is extremely demanding on graphics and Ultra Mode is even more so. You'll need a dedicated graphics card, either ATI or Nvidia, and the better the card the better performance you'll see. Here's the graphics equivalence chart from Tom's Hardware, anything on par with or better than the Nvidia 280 M should be ok. If your laptop has a high resolution screen then you'll move the requirements up a notch and of course the better the card the better the framerate.

For non-ultra mode or limited ultra mode you can drop down to the 7950 GTX moble card and still have good performance... I have an older laptop with that card that plays fine at 1600x900.

If your laptop has "Intel integrated graphics" of any flavor forget it... you might get COH running at low settings but it's not going to be pretty.


COH has just been murdered by NCSoft. http://www.change.org/petitions/ncso...city-of-heroes
