Running this game on a mini-ITX

[Tairetsu]

Not sure if this is the right sub-forum for this,but it cannot be completely wrong,so anyway:Do you think it will be possible to build a mini-ITX computer able to run this game?,and if so,how would you do it?,c'mon,get creative people. (?

 

Edit:talking about Star Citizen.

What game we talking about here mate?

 

A Mini-ITX System should be able to run any games. Depending on setup.2

[AlexStriz]

What game?

 

And the form factor of the mobo doesnt really have anything to do with how well it plays games, it's more the components you put on it

[MaDoHo]

Ugh, buy the best graphics card you can afford, remember to have a good amount of VRAM,get a decent CPU and some decent ram.

In the Star Citizen sub-forum. 

 

OP: Grab a 4690(K) or better a mini-ITX Z or H 97 board and a 980 or 970.

I feel... Not stupid. Not that obvious....

 

Anyways, Yeah, quad core CPU, and a 970 or 980

I've noticed this happens a lot when someone posts in this sub-forum. So now I always check whenever they don't specify.

Damn... thanks for making me feel like a retard...

It's because I just clicked the link from the "Most Recent" posts on the right. Doesn't show subforum

 

I assume this is what @XTankSlayerX did too

Me too, I mean whenever they don't specify the game I check the sub-forum.

Welp,now that the confusion is cleared up,sure,a single 980 may be able to run the game,but,you know,the idea was to spark some imagination and debate so...how well do you think the game could run on that?,would you need to overclock it?,even more so when the full comes out I imagine. 

[Xaring]

my 970 tops it out at 1080p, anything else you buy will beat my Mobo and CPU... So yeah, you definitelly can, get on of the small form factor 970's (no the Gigabyte G1 for example) and you should be fit to go.

My 980 is running the game peachy on stock. i run it on Medium settings because its in Alpha but i have 60 fps  average.

Im sure a 980 will be a solid choice on release as well. however its hard to say right now. 

 

a released game should have better optimization so maybe even a 970 (that aint broken) will handle it no prob. 

Max setting or not, hard to say considering we cant tinker with all the Settings right now.

[Napper198]

Single 970 is fine for 1080p. Mine is broken and handles even at heavy load with min 30 fps and since AC 1.0.1 and driver 347.25 VRAM usage stays below 3,4 GB.

 

But this is just as it is now. There is probably a lot of debug code to be run in background, a lot of stuff is not properly optimized and there is a lot that gets added in the later game, so as of now we can't say much.

 

So an ITX build should be fine, but everything depends on CIGs optimization and your desired Mpix/s

Check out my main rig. It's an mITX based build running SC splendidly. It's totally doable! It just depends on what components you put into that small form factor.

 

Edit: Also, I've not seen you around here before! Nice to meet you! Welcome to the fleet (If no one's welcomed you yet)

Oh! Well I usually log on here on and off so I might've missed your posts. What ship(s) are you running (or planning to run)?
