Hardware - Games - Fraps

[alienpredatover]

I dunno if is there any thread with this goal but most of us upgrade our PC in order to play ''that'' game at that ''resolution''.

It would be interesting if we could set a database with our PC specs, the games we run and the fraps we get (or at least a description). It would be nice to have info about laptops also, that way, we can have an idea of what we need to run ''that'' game. We dont need a full description of the machine, just the CPU, GFX and RAM, others components arent so decisive in obtaining fraps.

-Laptop Toshiba L650-107 (ATI5470; 2GB; P6100 2Ghz)
.Football Manager 2011 - full res, fast speed
.Call of Duty Black Ops - 1280*1024 medium details
.F1 2010 - 1024*768 medium\high detail no AA

-Laptop HP530 (945G; 2GB; Centrino Duo 1,66Ghz)
.Age of Empires 3 - 1024*768 medium detail
.Football Manager 2011 - full res, acceptable\slow speed

-Desktop (Pentium D 820; 1,5Gb DDR2, ATI3450)
.Street Fighter IV - 800*600 medium detail
.Star Wars the Force Unleashed - Unplayable
.Prototype - 1024*768 low detail
.Assassins Creed - 1024*768 low detail acceptable\slow
.Football Manager 2011 - full res, acceptable speed
.Resident Evil 5 - Unplayable
.Batman Arkham Asylum - Unplayable
.F1 2010 - 640*480 low/medium detail

I'll add more games as I remember as well as the Fraps I am getting with my new rig!

I think this might be unnecessary considering tons of review sites test a lot of these games and you can easily extrapolate based on your hardware's relative performance to the tested hardware.

Also something similar has been done with 3dmark. Yes it is not lots of games, but it gives people a relative idea based on their hardware.

Sorry to rain on your parade...
