Go to solution Solved by ThatAngryGnome,

so is an i5 4460 with 6 Mb cache and 3.20 Ghz with a 750Ti enough to run it?

What do you mean by running it? With a 750TI and a 4460, you'd be happy to be hitting 30fps on low to mid on 1080p. My laptop with an 860m (slightly more powerful than a 750ti) and a 4700 HQ (better than a 4460) can hit 40-50fps at medium at 1080p. As someone else said, consider NCIX PC's too.

Hey guys,

 

I am getting a computer ( PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DONT ASK ME TO BUILD ONE, THERE IS A LONG STORY ON WHY I CANT, I WOULD LOVE TO BUILD ONE BUT MY MOM SAYS NO) and i was wondering if a NVIDIA 750 is enough to run watchdogs, or do i need the 750 Ti? ( name what is the max i can go up to with each pls!)

 

thanks,

babadoctor

(you guys are really helpful :D)

OFF TOPIC: I suggest every poll from now on to have "**CK EA" option instead of "Other"

@babadoctor why not prebuild it on NCIX? I think they got a service like that. That would be much cheaper. :) Why do you want to run Watchdogs anyway? You can run it but it will look like crap.

My Current PC Codename: Scrapper

Spoiler

Intel i5-3570 | Some LGA 1155 MOBO | Some Generic DDR3 8GB 1600Mhz | PowerColor RX 560 2GB | Recycled HP Case | Crucial MX100 128GB | 1TB WD Blue 7200RPM | Some Generic 500w PSU | Intel Stock Cooler

Watch_Dogs is more CPU demanding then GPU demanding, but will still run horribly on 750Ti

so is an i5 4460 with 6 Mb cache and 3.20 Ghz with a 750Ti enough to run it?

A quick google search shows that it will max out at around 35-45 FPS @ 1080p ultra settings. Will it RUN? Yes. But it will run terribly and feel choppy/sluggish. I think a better option in the same price range would be a Pentium G3258 and an R9 280x or GTX760.

At first glance, yes. The thing with the G3258 is its overclocking headroom and its really cheap.
