Will one of these computers run the game?
I'm getting ready to purchase a computer and am looking at these threecomputers. Would one of these run the game well?

- 16GB SDRAM DDR3

- AMD R7 250 2GB

Lenovo X315 Gaming Desktop
- AMD A8-7600 Processor 3.1 GHz( cache) (quad)
- 8 GB DDR3 RAM
- 1 TB 7200 rpm Hard Drive, 8 GB Solid State Drive
- AMD ATI Radeon R9 255 2GB Graphics
- Windows 8.1
All three CPUs, ram, and HDs are fine. My only real concern is the Graphics cards in all three. They will probably run, but not as well as you may want, would prefer to see a R9270 card or even better a R9 290 in a "gaming" computer. The 250s are decent but DAI is a resource hog and a half. I was running a AMD Radeon hd 6950 for the game, it allowed me to run on almost all med graphics and two high textures for getting rid of the plastic hair.
AMD-Radeon-R7-250-vs-AMD-Radeon-HD-6950 comparison of the R7's to give you an idea that they are below that capability and even worse yet for those computers...
GeForce-GT-8800-Mac-vs-AMD-Radeon-R7-250 comparison to the min requirements to be in specs to play the game. You will notice that the R7s don't even beat the min spec card in all catagories.
Personally I would look for something with a bit more power for gaming in the vid card area if you are buying straight out. For a new computer for Gaming, you should look for an R9 270 or greater card, and if you can afford it, R9 290X...
AT least make sure the systems are able to be upgraded in the future by changing out the graphics card, meaning make sure they have the open slots, and power supply to support it.
If I was building a gaming rig and didn't want to totally break the bank....
AMD 8 core processor as fast I can affort, probably 3.5-4.0 ghz
12 gigs or ram
2x 1 TB hds with room to expand with SSD(SSD if I can afford it, but probably couldn't with the size I would want and my bank)
Win7.....not sold completely on 8.1 yet, but many love it.
AMD R9 290x
high quality 1000w psu
This would be probalby available in my budget and would make a good system for several years of gaming.
