JBLoudG20 Posted December 21, 2006 Report Posted December 21, 2006 I'm using (I admit, VERY dated hardware) an Athlon 2600 mobile @2.6Ghz, 1 GB Ram, 9800XT (specs I feel is still better than an average (not new) computer user) And I would NOT run vista on here. When I had it for about 24 hours, it was so slow it was pathetic. 100% CPU usafe to open the start menu. My father's machine is a 1Ghz P3 with a gig of ram. There is no way in hell it would be able to run Vista. Sorry I don't buy M$ spec sheet for it. The hotdog stand cracked me up. I'm not trying to rock the boat, I'm just saying that Vista is not worth the money I will have to pay for it. Quote
philodox Posted December 21, 2006 Report Posted December 21, 2006 You would almost definitely have a performance loss. But you wouldn't have to use windows, so its worth itAny performance loss in Oblivion is unacceptable! BTW. If anyone has a decent dual core A64 [socket 939] for sale, send me a PM. I just found out that Oblivion takes advantage of dual core processors... and me, using a 3000+ still. Quote
