you can just uninstall it.

Yeah, you should be.  I have the same Graphics Card, but the CPU might bottleneck your performance.


Yeah, you should be able to run it, but like Frozen said the CPU might bottle-neck the GPU a bit

System Requirements Lab sucks. Use http://yougamers.com/ instead. It's more accurate.

The recommended CPU spec for SR3 is "any quad core, Core i5/AMD Phenom II or dual core 3.0 GHz".  I think he'll be fine, maybe a notch below highest settings.

The recommended CPU spec for SR3 doesn't count for stuff if the CPU is bringing his GPU down way below what it should be running at

i have a card with less than 512mb ram and 1gb system ram and it says i cant run most of the games on there but ive been playing them at a normal fps with no frame drops

You should be fine, you might get a few frame drops every now and again, but otherwise you should be fine.

Reminds me of the time I somehow made a 100 dollar gaming rig.

Considering you can't run the binding of isaac, no.

What do you mean doesn't count for stuff?  The CPU is fine.  What the forget are you guys smoking?
