Will this game ruin my computer???

I used to play dragon age origins a few computers ago, the computer was dual core and all that, the game always made the fans turn on, and spin really loud and hard. I recently read that this is comm...

Yes, grimmpickering, the game will ruin your specific machine. In fact, unlike the way it works for over a million other players, the Developers managed to get your specific machine's serial number and coded a graphics-card race condition just to destroy yours. 😕mileytongue:

Try to argue after you build your hundred and first computer, kiddo! I built my first in 1986. I programmed my first IBM 360 in 1972, and taught college in the Computer Information Systems department for a dozen years. You bought junk instead of a decent video card. That's a fact, period.

So your saying that a 7450 is worse than a 3850 and that dragon age has better graphics that are harder on a system than skyrim with an ENB?

I think not. I havnt ever built a computer. but I do know that skyrim is harder on a system, and that many people all over have the same problem with this game, it has something to do with a memory leak and im here to find a way to fix it, not be insulted by someone who thinks a lower standard game should require higher specs than a top of the line graphical master-piece.

From the facts, it makes me either think you have no expierence in what you say you do, or you just simply didnt read the minimum requirements for the game and just assumed my card couldnt handle it, or maybe you just have no idea that the game has this memory leak problem that bioware (or EA whoever does the crap) hasnt fixed in any patches.

In which case... If you dont really know anything about graphics cards (saying mine doesnt meet minimum requirements when it surpases the recommended requirements by far), or you dont know the minimum requirements for the game, or you have no idea about the problems the game has, you have no business answering questions about it.

Please from here out, only serious people that understand how the game works (with the problem and how to fix it) reply to this...

So, instead of acknowledging the thousands of people with AMD graphics having a memory leak problem with the game, and fixing it, you blame the computer and change the topic name?
On every other forum I've visited it has been identified as a memory leak that no one has an answer for. I come to the EA site to find a fix, and am treated like this. I have read everywhere that EA has one of the worst bases for a straight answer, and refuse to admit they messed up.
This forum will go as far as to say a graphics card way better than the recommended requirements calls for, is not good enough for the game.

    Here's a real laugh to share:

    AMD claims that they never made any such item, no matter that HP is selling one for $135 ( kinda steep when a much better HD 6570 is available for $40 ! )
