I hate mentioning these. I might sound boastful etc. I just want to clarify some things.

I've been installing games on PCs since 2011.
I supply PC games all over Nigeria.
My thread on Nairaland is over 2 years old with no complaints from any customer.

I'm the best guy in Nigeria to meet for your PC gaming needs and your 1080p movies with subtitles.

My full catalogue is available here: http://bi t. ly/GARNE TLIST

My nairaland thread is: https://www.nairaland.com/1035742/garnet-pc-games-sale-cheapest

Moonraker and kimco, you both play on high end PCs, Info on other PCs you guys get are majorly gotten online.

I handle a lot of PCs daily and everything I tell you guys are from first hand experience. I always ask for system specs before selling games to peeps and no one has ever had any complaint.

So yes Battlefield 4 and Watchdogs plays well on some core i5 and i7 gen with an Intel HD 4600
Crysis 1 works on 3rd and 4th gen core i3 systems without graphics card.


Kindly prove me wrong. You can try Google, CYRI lab, notebookcheck.net and other sites..

we dont need to do dat...we can simply provide lots of benchmarks from the internet....but try and provide some of ur "hands on" benchmark experiences with us, i'd appreciate it a lot.

nb: are we talking about 720p....i seem to always think of 1080p screens. sorry.

let me post a link to a benchmark of battlefield.

Thats the difference between me and you. You get your info from where ever but i get my info from

hands on experience. You cannot play crysis titles on full res with an intel igp without the it down.

Its just not done... Far cry? yes. Battlefield? maybe.

A 4th gen core i5 or i7 with a 2 Gb Nvidia graphics card is better than an AMD a10.

A 4th gen core i7 4700MQ with Intel HD 4600 without a graphics card is better than an AMD a10

AMD a10 is better than a core i7 4200u without a graphics card.

the amd a10 (latest version) is faster than the i7 4700mq without gpu ( in gaming). only thing u got wrong. intel hasnt reached amd's level of graphics outting yet.

nb: i stand corrected...the intel iris pro trades blows with the latest a10
Re: What Pc Do You Game On Nairaland? by dazekid(m): 7:00am On Mar 10, 2015
Just ran Batman Arkham asylum on max with the intel HD 4600 GPU and although it was playable, it wasn't what I'd consider smooth. That game has amazing graphics for its time though.

Currently unpacking Far Cry 4, let's see how it goes.

Yeah you are very right. I just checked the benchmarks for the latest AMD A10 7850k with the AMD Radeon R7 GPU. It's pretty cool and run the latest games very well in 1366 by 768 resolution.

Any particular reason?
No particular reasons tho but i saw on some forums that the 850M can be tweaked to out-perform the 770M by overclocking it and some other stuff like dat.

Bro haba, the 770M is a better GPU than the 850M na, I do a lot of laptop comparisons and I have compared several HP envy PCs with the 850M installed with my Toshiba Qosmio and trust me, the 770M is much better. Don't let the model numbers and release dates confuse you bro.
Of course....i know dat na undecided smiley

Hmmmn. Nice 1 tho. Not bad. Checked out ur thread and saw dat there re lots of Nigerians who actually game on PCs. But majority of them dont actually know what it takes to actually game on a PC. They think u can just get any kind of PC and play any game on it. Loool saw one guy who said he had like intel pentium 4 and 1gig RAM and actually wanted to play games grin which proves what Kimco, Kenomobola & I were saying few weeks back dat majority of Nigerians know nothing about PC gaming which is why the market is so stagnant and PC hardwares are so rare in these parts. Anyway saw from in ur list of games dat u ve TW: Fall of the Samurai. Been trying to get the game for a while now. Hwfar help a bro out na smiley

True over reliance on internet benchmarks isn't really the way to go especially notebookcheck benchmarks but it's safe to say they can be used as a guide in knowing which GPUs suit ur needs

I have to say I have fed into the whole exo suite, Kevin Spacey, Lagos e.t.c hype that comes with advanced warfare and I just have to feed my curiosity, I have to agree with you that the COD franchise was a lot better in the days of Captain Price with the whole story(without an actual story) type gameplay that came with those titles. Let me try to get the game first, started the 45GB download but it keeps having errors(reached 43% and had the download roll back to 18% on IDM) so if I can get it elsewhere, I'd be cool with that.

Yea, swift has an unlimited plan that let's you download with no limits at night so you can browse and do light downloading during the day and then switch it up to the heavy stuff at night.

I use swift and they have two offerings that let you download unlimited at night while using the regular data package during the day. You can also use MTN BIS on android though as that is unlimited as well.

When it comes to cpu benchmarking I try to see things for myself. Like when I had my core 2 duo, gamespot forum members told me it won't be smooth enuff. Turns out they were somehow wrong (ofcos they were using 1440p monitors with everything on ultra so in dat sense they were ryt). My gpu ate it for breakfast, lunch and dinner at the same damn time.
cos in most games, the gpu is king.

However with the gpus, they are almost spot on. before I bought my new gpu, after selliing my old gpu I gamed on my igp intel hd 4000. I did that for one day and vowed never to do that again. I saw the absolute difference, esp on my 1080p samsung sync master. Even on low my gpu had a better look than the igp. And u have not seen smooth until u actually game using a gpu. This is why I ask those who claim to run their next gen games on "smooth" on their intel igp to post benchmarks using the "fraps" software. Can't be too hard.

Also most laptop monitor have horrible colors, contrast, gamma (watever) and viewing angle....running at less than half the resolution of a 1080p monitor. This is why I mostly advice against laptops. Unless it's an expensive gaming one.

I can't really as I don't have experience with a lot of Samsung devices. Also the BIS trick I was talking about happens to have been stopped the day after I mentioned it.

Forget! As far as PC games is concerned Nigeria isn't gettin on any map. The whole Africa sef isn't going anywhere. Africa represented by SA were not allowed to compete in the recent COD: AW world tournament for reasons best known to Activision & square Enix. They dont even have dedicated servers for online multiplayer in Africa. My point is Africa not just Nigeria ll always be at the bottom of the gaming ladder.
