Resolved Question

Can I Run Assassins Creed Unity?

Dec 21, 2014 10:06PM PST

Hello,

I am looking to buy Assassins Creed Unity for my PC. Many websites say I can run it on low perfectly fine. What do you think? My native resolution is 1366x768 but I am fine with dropping below that. I honestly don't care either how low the settings are.

Thanks

My System:

Win 8.1
Intel i7-4770 @ 3.4 GHZ 3.7 Turbo
Intel HD 4600
12 GB DDR3 RAM
1 TB HDD

Well the ONLY way to find out is to give it a shot..it either will or it won't...by the basic hardware parameters you have shown, my guess would be it likely will.

Run or playable?

Assuming the game will load.
Even if you bring every setting to ultra low the game will still run so poorly you won't be happy.
That Hd4600 is not even close to the minimum video power needed.

If you want to game get a gpu.

But.....

But it will run...maybe not well...never said it would run well..agree with what you have said, sounds like a pretty good learning experience on what to and not to use for gaming. I had an experience last week with a guy who simply would NOT understand why his Celeron (L/T) wouldn't do a whiz bang job with the World of Warcraft game...I have a little less hair now...

There is a website called {Can You Run It} It has a listing of PC games. When you find the right game on the list the site will scan your computer and let you know if your PC has the right hardware to run the game..Good Luck..
