Can my PC run Battle for Neighborville? (DxDiag Included)

Whenever I try to launch, the game crashes. Is it my PC hardware or the game?

    Hey, Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I'm not all that savvy when it comes to computer hardware so it's difficult for me to compare the minimum requirements with my own specs.

    Do you think an AMD Phenom II X4 965 Processor (4 CPUs) and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Graphics Card be capable of running Battle for Neighborville? If so do you have any ideas on why the game is not launching?

    Hey @Motonimus

    Thanks for providing your system specs, much appreciated.

    It looks like your CPU might be out of date, which can cause some issues with Battle for Neighborville.

    You can check out the Benchmarks here: https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-Phenom-II-X4-965-vs-AMD-FX-4350/606vs2880

    The minimum CPU you would need is the AMD FX 4350, your GPU would run the game just fine.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks 🙂

    @Motonimus I would much rather own that PhenomII cpu than any FX series for gaming alone. It may be older and have less cores but it's still capable of running the game at its stock 3.4ghz speeds. I would skip the entire FX series all together and go with a Ryzen for your next build and re-purpose that gtx 1660 ti as it's still very capable for 1080p 60+ fps. For $80 you can get a Ryzen cpu that's far better than both FX and the PhenomII, but then you'd need a new $80-120 motherboard and DDR4 RAM

    As for your crashing problem try setting the game in DirectX 11 mode. It crashes for me instantly in DX12
