Not a problem Leon. I agree is a good tool to use, I just ran the Far Cry 2 test and passed it above recommended.

Great tool from what I can see so far.  Am on my work laptop right now so I didn't let it complete but it's bookmarked now.

Thanks!!!

Glad you like it Freezrburn. And your welcome

Good catch Tracer.   

Thanks well hope this will help cut down on some posts as well. You know the ones that think that they can run Crysis on a 486DX, LOL.

LOL

That was the first game I looked at on there.   According to it, my current system is supposed to be able to run it.

What it didn't tell me was that I had to run it at 1024x768 and with all settings at minimum. 

LOL but it plays better at 640X480X8bit . true it will not tell you the resolution on it but at least it will check the OS and the hardware to see if it can be ran.

lol well i found it odd it said my graphics card barely passed minimum recommendation but was almost maxed when i switched it to recommended O_o i have a 9800 GTX btw

and i find it to baised also on the game alone in the dark the game only lists recomnded havein intel doenst even list the amd equivlent and i fail for not haveing intel basically in  recomended it does have amd in minimum and it barely passed me even tho its minimum amd was a 3800 and i have a 4600 which stomps a 3800 and then the recomeded it instanly failed me because it only recomnded useing intel pentium core 2

 I also just ran it and have a 9800GTX as well but with a 5200+, you might want to upgrade the CPU from a 4600 to 5000 or more.

GameSpot used the same service for a brief moment of time, except it was integrated into their site. 

Thanks for the link, now I can run my computer against all the games and see it say "Fail, Fail, Fail, Fail, Almost Fail, Fail...."  (yay for mobile version of Pentium III and 512 mb of 167 mhz RAM!)

*resumes not upgrading computer....

Ah, I remember this site. Can be quite useful.

1. Noted,thanks!

This is a neat tool but it made some errors with my system...for example it says that I have Windows XP when in fact I have Windows Vista....it also said that I have 3.2 GB of RAM when I have 4 GB (this may be caused by Windows 32 Bit only being able to utilize ~3.5 GB) but here are my results for Crysis....it would be nice if it told you resolution, settings, etc.., but otherwise an excellent tool..thanks for bringing this up Tracer

Well it did not bring up a error on the Windows or RAM based on your system. When it checks 32 Bit can not see 4GB only 3.0 - 3.5GB is all  how ever it sees what is allocated to the video card that is not seen in Windows as well. Both Windows XP and Vista are seen as NTFS 5 that is why it did pick it up as XP so really its not a true error.

Not a problem at all everyone gets confused with that part of it. Now if they can put the new Need for Speed undercover on there as well.

it is a nice tool and very interesting. Tracer well-done.

a little bit late to know it :-)
