Can i even run Serious Sam 3?
Hey i know a few sales are upon us so i thought i would ask this question before i went and baught this game even though im a big serious sam fan, i was wondering if i could run this game or any of the other serious sam games (i was thinking about maybe getting the HD remakes as well but idk if i can run them at all)? So here are my specs:

Dell Inspiron 1545
Pentium dual core CPU @ 2.30GHz with
4 GB of ram.
64 bit system type
Dell Family Chipset 4 graphics card

Thanks again for the help everyone, oh and your thoughts on Serious Sam 3 as a whole?

Well, your specs are good enough to run it, the only one thing to worry it's your graphics card. Perhaps, you could try to download Serious Sam HD's demo (TFE) and check are there any graphical artifacts or something another. If not, so feel free to purchase the game(s).

SS 3 should not upset you as Serious Sam fan :)

I just had a look at the specs of it. If I have got the right chip specifications then honestly you could struggle terribly with SS3:BFE. (I tracked your graphics down as being Intel GMA 4500MHD: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Graphics-Media-Accelerator-4500MHD-GMA-X4500MHD.9883.0.html)

It is wise advice you have been given to try The First Encounter (HD) demo. If you are sufficiently happy with test that then go ahead and buy TFE and TSE. As a guide I would say maximum settings on TSE will get you medium and a half on BFE.

SS3 rocks so don't worry, it will always be there, and you will play it one day.

Unfortunately, your GPU is not supported. :(
That doesn't mean Sam3 wouldn't work, but we can't guarantee anything.
Sorry.

Ah ok sounds like a no go then from the looks of it, thank you.
