Will H2V run on my PC? Is it worth the money?

[Amit]

It will run but VERY slowly.

You have probably never come in contact with this card before or even seen benchmarks of it. I have this card running on my other vista computer. My current settings for H2V on that PC is 1280x1024 resolution, high detail, and 2x AA. It has a decent framerate of 31 FPS. That PC has basically the same specs as the one I'm using currently.

The extra gig of ram you plan on buying will help immensely with this resource hog, escpecially at the beginning of campaing levels.

if u want to know if the game is worth it read the thousands and thousnds of bugs/ problems/ WTF THIS IS BS threads.

Alright, Thanks to all of you who weren't sarcastic. I think Ill go a ahead and get it, hell if it doesn't work it'll just give me a reason to buy a new PC.
thanks.

Uh, Dennis, he already posted the minimum requirements.
That PC should run it decently at a decent framerate.

I don't have a gig of RAM i have 446 MB ram. It works fine on my pc even though i have 446 MB RAM huh. lol ITS TRUE!!!!

EDIT: It slows down at most piont and sometimes freezes but it work pretty good for my pc. Its true 446 mb of RAM. my ram chip is 512 mb but the Windows Vista reads it as 446.

For your first question, it will run.
For your second question, no it is not worth the money unless you absolutely must have it.
I got it and shadowrun both for 20 dollars each. The ports are soo bad I find both unplayable. Halo 2 Vista has control problems that make me unable to accurately move around and Shadowrun is alright, but my mouse and keyboard cut on and off randomly leaving me unable to move.

360 controller forceware.

the reason why windows reads it as 446 is because your video card is integrated and shares its memory with system RAM. It is actually 64 MB of video memory - not sure why it shows 446 instead of 448 but you should be able to find out where that extra 2 MB went to.

If I disable my Geforce 7600 GT and enable the integrated Radeon X200, then 128 MB of RAM will be stolen from my 1 GB.
