will my pc run this game

[taylortrucking23]

HP Pavilion 550-153wb Desktop PC with Intel Core i3-4170 Dual-Core Processor, 6GB Memory, 23" Monitor, 1TB Hard Drive and Windows 10 Home

To be honest, I doubt it will run well unfortunately. You can try the demo for it though.

Maybe if you run the game on a low resolution it will be playable.

No GPU? On integrated it will look pretty bad, no doubt. Try the demo, it's free.

I looked up the model number, it indeed uses an integrated hd4400 gpu.

Sorry, but neither i3 nor integrated GPU are meant for gaming. They game will probably run, but using lowest settings only so it might not look pleasant

[BigT57]

I think the I3 will do ok for ATS but as already mentioned the integrated graphis will not. If you put a decent GPU card in that desktop it should run ok.

This would appear to be the machine that you are using:

You are limited by the HP power supply, that is rated for 180W. Your case dimensions will also rule out some larger sized cards. We need to look at advising on lower power consumption card options for you.

You HP computer will work fine for watching You Tube videos, writing e-mails, some simple home photo/video work. To get this updated for playing some games, add a suitable graphics card - this provides improved graphics power acceleration to handle complex maths tasks that are displayed as the 'graphics' on your screen.

As an 'entry level' option you should be able to pick up a used GT750Ti - a long standing favourite for low power consumption and compact size. Although not always available as a new option there are links in the following video discription for buying from abroad.

Don't want a used card from abroad? Then consider a GT1030, with 'GDDR5' memory - warning nvidia created a 'GDDR4' version which should be named a GT1020 as the performance is poor in comparison. To understgand the difference watch the following video:

I am not sure that the standard HP 180 Watt power supply would really be happy with a GTX1060 card installed. The processor (Intel i3-4170) will also start to become an issue in some games as they will prefer a i5 model.

[Silamon]

Ehm... I would be surprised if even a 1050 could run on a 180w power supply. 1030 is likely the best you could do in that case.
If the op really wants to look into upgrading that pc, he would need to try and find a psu small enough to fit the case. Only then could he get a 750ti or better card.

Most GTX1050 cards will run from the PCIe lane (just like a GT750Ti) and do not have an additional 75 watt socket. The few select models that do (Gigabyte mainly do not use anywhere near an additional 75 watts of power even under a full overclock.

Geforce website lists the graphics card power as 75 watts for the GTX 1050 2GB and 3GB models as well as the GTX 1050Ti:

Going by your own link, the recommended psu is 240 watts for his pc + 750ti/1050ti. Even if the max wattage is lower than what the psu can provide, that would mean running it at maximum power the whole time he is running a game, and thats not even counting loss of watts from quality/age.

The HP power supplies do handle this small load.

The 240W figure already takes into account cheap power suppies with low current output and low wattage that don't meet the wattage figure on the case. This is why some older AMD and nvidia cards often reccommended much bigger PSU models than was required.

I agree that fitting something much bigger than required is best practice. It keeps noise levels down and you will have extra headroom.

go buy 500w psu or something its the machine go buy 1050ti or 1060 if money left over you will be good to go. Dont need I7-8700k running on coolant to play it and enjoy. Remember lots play ATS on potato pc still. The CPU is fine for ATS and ETS2 can always swap parts to upgrade.
