EVE General Discussion

I'm sorry ... is that it?
I don't get this. Is it a reference or something?

Nono, I'm sorry, I miss actual content you are speaking of. All you posted about what some irrelevant drivel that has nothing to do with the title of the thread. Unless I'm just not seeing it.


You see me confused.

The fact that most things will run Eve and that in the MMO world its actually one of the lowest requirements in terms of hardware out there this thread will be going places imo.

Ive ran Eve on 10 year old systems in the past all the way up to brand new stuff. I run 4 computers and 6 monitors so I just upgrade each as I need to to maintain a decent overall system. Cuz theres no need to make a high end system. Sure I can do the same thing with one computer for the same overall money but I love having dedicated systems, nevermind that the girlfriend can use a computer when she comes over and we dont have to share.... gamer gfs... the bane of ALL men *snicker*.

Well not so much anymore with updated shaders. a 8 year old laptop will have problems with it (though a 8 year old laptop had problems with it in the first place if the videocard wasn't up to snuff).

Running 3 clients simultaneously, no issues.

Had to disable Windows Aero to get it running without buffer or spikes in framerate (if you have that issue, disable aero OR disable Desktop Composition).

A Q6600 is still awesome on this game.

Well. As far as keyboards go

this

is about all you need.

I think this system will also Run EVE (with the proper Video card or the required video card that is):

Perhaps of use would be to include a list of hardware categories levels and types related to specific devices.

Such as, for:

1.
- The Memory (RAM, Random Access Memory, for the CPU) has different types like DDR-3 and others...
Those specification relate to the type of RAM and , in some case, have related RAM speed for data processing...
Those RAM chip type may not be compatible with RAM connectors on certain motherboard.
Prior instances of Ram compatibility used to relate to parity and non-parity type for which I even forgot the related properties of each type.
(I would have to verify that.)

2.
- The Motherboards with speed in GHz (Giga-Hertz, related to rate at which data cycles through the system before repeating itself) as well as other parameters such as:
Dual Core, Quad Core which refers to the numbers of microprocessors (CPU) in the motherboard.
(I would have to verify but it might be it.)
* Other factors related are:
The bus speed which related to the ratios in time or other factors for data transfer and processing from the CPU to the on-board devices (on-board = on the motherboard).

3.
Hard disks requirements in Giga-bytes, in relation to storage capacity.
This is a minimum requirement for loading the program in storage to run on the CPU.
The Hard-disk also needs free space to load the program virtual memory.
There are other factors involved, including the data speed for retrieval (read) and write speed.
SSD hard-disk (or SATA?) offers more accurate data processing with reduced risk of errors compared to previous other hard-disk type.
(I would have to verify which is best, but it might be close to it.)

The above info are not only theoretical but practical reference to system compatibility and, requirements, as well.


Some more hardware systems to check for me are:
A.
$140 (this week only) Dell D630 Laptop
Core 2 DUO, 1.8 GHz, 2 GB Ram, 80 GB HD, DVD, Wifi, Win 7 COA
Brand new battery, Reg. $170

B.
Lenovo B50 laptop
AMD E1600, 4GB Ram, 320 GB HD, Windows 7 & Windows 8
$300, Reg. $350

C.
HP 6005 Tower
AMD 3.0 Ghz, 4 GB Ram, 250 GB HD, Win 7 COA
$140, Regular price $170

(There was LCD monitor for around $45 to $55.)

Those offers won't be available next week when I get enough resources to buy them, so would cost me more.


My current tablet only has 512 MB RAM and is not half as good as I'd need to run programs requiring 1 GB RAM.
However, I ran programs requiring amounts of RAM higher than was actually loaded on the system being run.
I am not certain if the system compatibility for more RAM affected the program to run with less than required hardware.
However, the program ran with less than desirable results, although that it did ran technically speaking.
One may need to be technically adapt enough to run the program under conditions with less hardware than the suggested required specifications.
(btw, RAM offered price do not relate to Ram offering as in referred you know where...)

Furthermore,
some program are literally designed to refuse to even install if not enough hardware is found or detected.
I used to have to make "trapping" program which detected installed hardware return code for processing.
This code (machine language) is in turn integrated into programs to react and inform accordingly.

(For instance, you can't load certain version MS-DOS on hard-disk over 1 GB or so...)

It would generate artificially intelligent system to have operating system monitor all programs and keep functional buffer (like Task Manager), but even more integrated into protecting against overload.
Many programs already keep track of memory usage during processing, however, it may only take one that doesn't to crash the system.

There's also more phone offers but I'll pass for now...
Those offers will be good for future reference to verify what was available at what price and to compare with current systems.
[I heard Windows 10 will unroll to 1 billion machine creating an internet (electronic network system, including wireless) problem.]

(Now, let's see if this will save without crashing and too many typos...)

NVidia Kepler (760-Titan/Titan Black) has issues with tearing if you have desktop compositing disabled, Windows (Aero) or Linux (modern desktop environment of choice).

My tablet's screen was broken but I found a 1.8 GHz desktop that would work for $89.

I am not sure that it would run EVE Online though as it requires 2.0 GHz minimum.


There is around 2 GB to 4 GB of RAM on that system (I could verify, but 2 GB of RAM would be enough).


Question:
Does EVE Online work on 1.8 GHz?
