Best Settings
Hey guys I was wondering if someone could tell me the best settings for my PC. I have everything on ultra low, which makes it playable, but Its VERY hard to read anything. I was wondering if anyone could let me know an optimal setting, to not only be playable but also readable. Please let me know if you neede any other information!


*Note my PC is an All in One, and its not at all very good for gaming, but its all I can afford atm.*

ultra low is only option for integrated graphic...if you cant read anything you probably didn't set game to monitor native resolution

The resolution is the lowest I can put it, Ive tried to go higher but it gets SUPER laggy. Even on Ultra low :c

your computer isn't meant for gaming, it doesn't have an actual video card. You're also gonna want to have at least 8GB of RAM these days.

it's because of your lack of a video card
Amerusi Mar 14, 2016 @ 3:59pm

Imagine your computer is a piss poor university student ordering a coffee in a shop and its deciding which size to get: small, medium or large. Ordering a smaller coffee is cheaper and will be quicker for the barrista to make where as a large coffee are more (visually) satisfying since its bigger but is expensive as hell and takes longer to fill the cup. Basically higher resolutions strain your pc because theres X amount more to load. For example a small 640x420 resolution will be alot quicker to process all the information onto your screen. Whereas a BIG resolution like 1920x1080 is over double the amount of information being processed onto the screen.. Hence its means its slower for your pc takes alot longer process and display each frame with the thousands of pixels of visual information than a 'rich kid' with a super gaming pc which we all wish we had
