Resident Evil 4 Requirements

RE4.Noob · December 8th, 2006, 12:20

Hi, I'm new to these forums and PCSX2, and I want to know the requirements for Resident Evil 4 (on PCSX2.net - News it showed it will work). I have 1700 Mhz, 1024 MB of DDRAM, AtiRadeon 9250 graphics card (128 MB). Will it work on my PC?

It's an Athlon, right? Use the non VM version

emwearz · December 8th, 2006, 12:22

RE4, requires a really modern machine with a strong GPU to play it at enjoyable speeds. Sadly your machine would not be up to the task. You should be able to play it using the TLB version, however your speeds will be very slow.

Nope, not Athlon

**RPGW1ZaRD** · December 8th, 2006, 13:21

I'd say sth like this to get enjoyable speeds:

- Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 or highend / overclocked AMD dual core CPU
- Nvidia 7900GS

You can check here and compare how it runs on my system for example:

or

On your current system you'd get like 5 FPS...

Can someone tell me then some games that works decently on my PC?

GreenSoda · December 8th, 2006, 13:59

With 1700 MHz ? ...probably none -you might try 2d games à la Disgaea...but even those will probably be rather slow on your rig.

RE4.Noob · December 8th, 2006, 14:12

So.... Mhz is all the problem? If I upgrade my PC to 3000 Mhz will Resident Evil 4 work fine?

MHz isn't all, but CPU type matters and this game needs a dual core CPU. You know even a Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86GHz performs about same as a Pentium D 960 3.6GHz despite it's got almost twice as low clock speed.

Core 2 Duo "Conroe" CPUs 2.1GHz~2.4GHz or highend AMD X2 / Opteron ~2.5GHz+ cpus or better are the only CPUs capable of providing good speeds in this game currently. It's among the more demanding games. Then there's some distant fog and demanding fire effects for example that requires great gfx card as well. Not sure about the current release, as ZeroGS isn't far as gpu dependant anymore as it was in v0.95.2

I have a 3400+ sempron64 with 1.5gb ram and a X1600XT PCI-E and it runs with about 20-24 fps so don`t expect more

What's the problem RE4.Noob, can't you just play it on your PS2 if your computer isn't fast enough? You know PCSX2 isn't a replacement for the actual console and to legally use PCSX2 you need to dump PS2 bios from your console...

Myself have both choises now thx to the fast computer and of course PCSX2 team.

I enjoy making movie clips of it mostly when playing on PC.

I know, but, how to tell it... how do you like it most? From your PS2 or your PC? (and you have the possibility of making clips, pics, ...)

And tkSteveFOX, the minimum pixel shader required is 2.0 and I have 1.4.

Well yea I can agree with that, it's more fun playing on the comp now I must admit. I've taken like above 100 screenshots and recorded like 11 video clips of it now lol.

Yea it's like that in all FMVs in RE4 even if FPS is full speed or above like in my case 80~85 FPS.

Yeah, this game required something more than my ATI Radeon X1600Pro... I only get 19 fps with an overclocked E6300 @ 2.45GHz... only thing is fast is the cut-scene, map (press triangle) and the inventory.
