    Ati Radeon HD 5450 1gb good for this???


    my system specs:
    Intel Pentium G620 (dual core)
    4gb DDR3 1333mhz ram
    ASROCK H61M-VS

    do you think these games will run fine on hd 5450 (about 20-30fps)
    GTA 4
    dirt 3
    nfs the run
    the upcoming most wanted 2012

    Gta iv will lag like crazy with the 5450,use to use the card and most i could get out of it was 17-24fps at 1024x768 all low with average fps at 21,others idk, probably on low-mid from 1024x768-1280x720 at those fps.They will all run,ran bfbc2 on that card on medium at 1024x768 and a couple older titles like mass effect 2 on high at 1280x720. Though don't expect it to be beastly,you could probably run better using a 6670 instead. A 6670 will out perform the 5450 by a margin and stuggle a bit less and proably get you at least 30fps at medium with some high settings at 1336x768 for gta iv. 5450 is not really a gaming card even though it supports dx11 which seems pointless imo since it lags so much and I don't recommend to be honest. Try to save a few bucks and get a 6670 since your on wanting low budget card.. The duo core though is fine and most games don't yet utilize effectively more then 2 cores so duo core is fine as long as you have at least 2.0Ghz or more and you got a good amount of ram.

    I have 2 6450 cards (same as 5450 with bois tweaks for blu ray) in home theatre PC's used for running HDTV's playing back Netflix streaming and DVD'd up scaled up to 720p and 1080p. They are great for that but really useless for any kind of gaming except maybe solitaire. It is that horses for courses. I have a 6770 and it runs Dirt 3 well. Don't know the frame rates as I am not a gamer. It came with the card, I installed it on Steam and tried it out but everyone went flying past me with comments like "You do realize you are in a race". That was the end of that.
