Default Re: STALKER CLEARSKY issue.....

Two potential problems are onboard video and people say the game (soc and clear sky) only run off 1 cpu. So a 1.8 ghz quad core cpu might be slow. Onboard video never really works well for games. If you are buying a card or thinking about it make sure your mainboard has a pci express slot or you might need to buy a new mainboard to put in a graphics card. You can try the quad core fix. It might help a bit.



Affinity Fix Quad Core, Stalker Downloads, Stalker Utilities

It looks like it has a pci express slot in pictures but you will have to open it up and look.

It's a bit late for a reply to this question, given that it was asked three weeks ago, but whoknows, maybe someone else will find some of this info helpful.

Here's a couple of links to articles comparing video cards in terms of power draw (wattage) , price and performance.
Such cards do exist and are even becoming more common as people realize that besides saving electricity, lower heat output usually means a quieter fan (or sometimes passive cooling is sufficient) and a quieter PC without the need for a 500Watt power supply (Yes, you can buy or build a nice gaming PC with a 300-400W power supply!) But make sure you get a good quality PS- not all power supplies are created equal, and wattage ratings tells you very little about a PS (a good 300W PS can outperform a low quality 450W unit, plus be more reliable, quieter, cleaner, etc.)
You should be able to get a good video card that will work with your 300 W Power Supply. There are some that only draw 60 watts!.

Hope that helps. Sorry, but it wasn't meant to be all-inclusive, but it's a start.
