Full detail -slim to none
Med Detail -much better
Low Detail -bet it runs fine
If you require the best eye candy then that system needs to be replaced. But if you are fine playing a great game with low detail settings it should run fine. |

System Specs:
1GHz AMD
256MB RAM
GeForce 2 MX400
WinXP Pro
Defragged source drive, all other programs off, disabled non-essential network services (as recommended by: http://www.overclockersclub.com/windowsxpservices.shtml )
Running Morrowind at 1024x768 with shadows off, AI distance at 25%, view distance at about 40%, sound quality to low. Oddly enough, at the lowest resolution (600x800?) the game is a slide-show, but bumping it up to 1024x768 it is smooth (remember having read something on www.tomshardware.com to explain the phenomenon for quake 3 way back, but can't rember what it was). Game only slows down when arriving via silt-strider to a new area that has significantly different graphics but then after a few sec, is smooth again. Dunno how to get my framerate values, but I'd guess it is around 30fps? Other than turning down the view distance to ~40% and the shadows off (and the sound to low), i've had to make no significant compromises and find the game to be consistently gorgeous and look forward to being able to turn the gfx all the way up one day soon |
