Rust:can i play it?

[JaGGed]

ok so i bought the game and my setup is this amd 6 core fx 6300,geforce 9800 2gb and 8 gb ram,its it going to work if i down load it or will i have wasted the broadband data

As long as you're on a 64-bit OS I think it'll run... but that 9800 whew talk about old tech.

that graphic card is just too old even if it was fast for it's time.

cpu might be okay but I'm not sure.

On the lowest settings yes, but it'll be poor performance with an immense loading time to the main menu, let alone in a game and you're prone to crashing when using less than 16GBs of RAM. The game uses up to 11GBs of RAM on top of the OS's consumption of up to 3.5GBs-4.5GBs of RAM.

16GBs allows you to load all the assets into memory, instead of reading & writing to the HDD on top of reading the data from the game which if it's your OS drive; will absolutely break something sooner or later.

That game should only be played on 16GBs of RAM with RUST installed onto an SSD. That minimizes the loading times and issues you'll have otherwise.

to a point yes, but it will load extremely long. but i will rather suggest upgrade your system a bit if you don't want long loading times and decent graphics

[JaGGed]

ok thanks ,i dont care much about the load times as long as the game is playable for the most part ,i can turn graphics all the way down

According to the requirments Rust won't boot with a Geforce 9800 gt , that graphic card doesn't have DX11 hardware support.

I don't know if it's still has DX 10 support you might want to ask from peoples in the game forum so you can know for sure if the game still support DX 10 rendering pipelines.

[JacquesPatat]

he's got similar hardware system to me. I do know it will work but like i said extremely long load time. to get to game menu no problem, but to get in game to play looking at 10 to 20 minute load time. and graphics on the lowest.

thanks guys
