Welshace Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Anyone got any advice on my specs a few posts up? the processor will run that amount of leagues fine im sure... the ram may become an issue after a few seasons, but it all depends on how your pc runs really, if you can upgrade, do so, its cheap as chips these days . My specs:Intel Core i3 2,13GHz 4GB RAM DDR3 ATI Radeon HD 5650 1GB VRAM similar to justino... 10-15 leagues will push a little i3 after a few seasons, but it all depends on how fast you want the game to play Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

arnies Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 The thing is, any processor can run any amount of leagues. It will just take long to process. If you start with 20 leagues then sure it might run well for a few seasons. But if you get 10 years in it will start to slow. I wouldn't run anything like that without an i5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee_Simpson Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 @ Welshace - Do you reckon that Acer we've been talking about in the other thread (the one you originally linked) would run 25 leagues or more? Thanks. Edit - Oh, and any reason why you think Windows 8 is poor? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshace Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 yes, it will certainly run 25 leagues + mate... easily i'd say... windows 8 is optimised for tablets and touch screen technology.. it's basically two contradicting OS's in one and they both fail horribly. if you look back over 20 years of microsoft release history you find a simple pattern... firstly a release, secondly a 'consumer release' which is basically a bug ridden, mess of an update to the previous windows full of crazy ideas that never..ever...ever work... eg: Windows 3 = superb... sold millions and millions... became the top OS around. windows 95 = was great in idea, basically the framework for what windows is now, but was buggy and huge driver issues etc windows 98 = basically windows 95 .. but done right.. brilliant. windows me - biggest fail so far windows xp = best OS so far brilliant vista = ... do i really need to go into why it was crap? windows 7 = polished and good windows 8 = .... just ,truly , awful.

MartsMac1982 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I have a pretty fast system: Core I7 960 (hexacore) Radeon 5970 both of which are liquid cooled. 24GB RAM (even though FM 13 wont use any more than 4 GB of it due to it being a 32-bit App) I tried just for fun to max out the games database with 251,000 players and 18 playable leagues selected, I then went to custom and chose to load ALL players from the continents of Europe and South-america , needless to say I am not expecting playable performance with this size of database, i just did it for fun, (its STILL loading the game after well over 20 mins) haha EDIT: thats 18 NATIONS selected not LEAGUES some nations have multiple leagues selected so the game told me it was in excess of 48 leagues HAHAHAHA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know i3-i5s around 2.4ghz and 4-6gb RAM is fine. I only play 6-8 leagues. My concern is the graphics card. Most I am looking at do not have dedicated graphics cards.

cafe_latte Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Hi, new to this site, but not to Football Manager. After a hiatus of 3 years I am back but have noticed that the specifications of FM have changed dramatically since I last owned a copy of Football Manager. I was just wondering if my laptop (which isn't that old) could run FM 2013. Here are the specs: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit Intel Pentium P6200 @ 2.13 GHz 2 Gb RAM Because this laptop isn't built for video gaming in the slightest of respects it does contain a graphic chip, albeit a rather crap one from Intel. It's basically a bog standard Intel Graphics Chip. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
