Graphics card requirement question to players and all
Does the game realy have to have at least a gt 970 or RX 470 or 550 to run? cause thats 300.00 bucks. I got a high-end solo gt 730 4GB. Does it have to be the DDR5 type memory or will DDR3 work? Would a 1030 with DDR5 work?

According to userbenchmark.com a gtx 970 is about 900% faster than a 730.

Even if a 970 isn't really necessary, I doubt you'll get far with a 730.

The lowest end card I've had any success with running FH4 (not FH5, but it should give you some idea) was the GT 1030. That could barely manage 1080p 30 FPS after some careful messing around. I don't think you'll have much luck with a 730 on FH5.

Don't use userbenchmark for benchmarks, it's not credible.

This was brought up a bit back, apparently does run despite not having dx12 support.

Up to you if you really want to play it like that.

Credible enough to quickly determine that a 730 is severely underpowered at the very least.

Well im glad somone tested a 730 looks like it at least runs just not good. I was wondring if it would even launch. Well if i want it to run right and look good a RX 550 then perhaps. So DDR5 memory not requirered just faster better. Oh is 2GB enuff if it;s DDR5 im looking at a MSI Radeon RX 550 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express x16 (Uses x8) Low Profile Video Card Radeon RX 550 2GT LP OC Whats that 2GT LP OC mean? And how much better/faster than a 730? Oh did i mention it's 128 bit.

x16 to x8 is a bandwidth difference, not terribly sure it matters at low resses. Bit funny they have 4k marketing for it, since you pretty much can't do 4k with it cept maybe video. DDR5/3 difference again is just speed, idk if it terribly matters. Would probably be a bit more concerned with the 2GB vram, though at 1080p it might be passable.

way too many youtubers these days, feels like there's a video for every single card.

You're better off playing with your CPU integrated graphics than a gt 730. That card was bottom tier even when it launched. It's more of a display port than a gaming card.

what do you mean CPU intergrated? would a 1030 work? A 1050ti low profile should be good. I have to have low profile for my small form case I foud a GTX 750TI im gonna try gotta be beter I hear the TI versions is much better why its costs a bit more.
