What's Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.40GHz (2 CPUs),~3.4GHz Mean?

[Bewaffa]

can play Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.40GHz (2 CPUs),~3.4GHz assasin's creed?

 

[VirtualLarry]

Probably not. Pentium 4 has been obsolete for 5-6 years now.

 

[jhu]

It can. But you'll more than likely be disappointed at its performance.

 

[lyssword]

no, and not only because of [the lousy] cpu, but it is more than likely that any video card (if not onboard lol) paired with that is [lousy] as well.

No profanity in the tech forums, please

Hey, what if he meant the original Assassin's Creed (2008). He's above the minimum requirements by a reasonable margin.

Minimum System Requirements:
CPU: Dual core processor 2.6 GHz Intel® Pentium® D or AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 3800+

except that he's a core short.

And that he probably didn't mean the original Assassin's Creed. (otherwise the original Prince of Persia would be a fine alternative )

He is probably referring to the 3,4 Prescott and not the Pentium D 3,4 which has double the power.

Netburst Powah!
is junk.
If your board is 775,see what kind of Core 2 chips it will run.

If you try, it'll properly end in a slide-show.

The Pentium4 family is basically obsolete. It doesn't have the performance to run modern games whatever frequency its running at.

In more ways then one... :biggrin:

The pentium 4 netburst is worthless today. It can barly play youtube videos.

 

[AstroGuardian]

Of course it cant, as well as the Athlon x64.

 

[lamedude]

Was sorta playable on my 2GHZ A64x2 anything slower would be masochism.

That cpu is strong enough to at least get you good framerates on low if not medium settings. I'd be more worried about your GPU.
