Re: NBA 2K10 PC thread

I'm running an 8800gts 320 mb, 4 gigs of ram and a pentium d @ 3.2ghz on vista, and 2k9 ran choppy on every setting for me last year.

What resolution? What about the crowd? Benches?

My native resolution is 1680x1050, but I would run the game on lower settings and still witness choppyness.

That's weird. Did you try to uninstall and then reinstall? Did you try to edit the settings file or something like that?

By the way, Shanah Tovah!

Re: NBA 2K10 PC thread

Hey, these posts are probably pretty annoying, but my computer is actually fairly old and I can't afford the $60 price tag to get this bad boy for my PS3. How will my PC do?

Windows XP
AMD Athlon 64 Processor 4000+ 2.41 GHz
2 GB RAM
Radeon X1900 512 MB

And...I like to play on 2k cam or similar Think it will be worth it for me to get the game or should I just skip this year?

I have the same setup except for the CPU (I've got a Core2Duo 4300 with 2x1,8ghz) and 2k9 runs perfectly fine without jersey physics with everything else on the highest settings @ 1680*1050.

Anyone got a clue when we'll get a demo for the PC? I'm really looking forward to 2k10 but I wanna make sure it runs okay (I still kinda hope they implement the physics in a better way so I can enjoy them).


I really like that we get full online functionality this year though. I was kinda disappointed when I bought it last year only to find out that I won't get current rosters etc. But this year.. and for 20$.. awesome

I would love to get draft combine though

I'd probably upgrade your video card , find a used 8800gt or something for less than a 100 bucks (CDN). or heck a 4850 you can find for around that used now. you probably wouldn't be able to run ultra high, but max on everything else.

did you tried to unplug your mouse and keyboard and play only with the controller pluged in ? i had to do it everytime , else i got like 30 fps or so.

and your cpu is way to old for vista, you would have much better peformence on win xp !

for all other with questions to pc specs.

GPUs like ATI X19xx/ nV 86xx should run the game solid to very good, this is still a sports game and not an egoshooter on dx10

2GB ram are today a minimum and should be enough for nba2k

cpu is a thread for itself. i dont know if this game is depended more on cpu or gpu, every game is in this topic diffrent.

CPUs like a P4 are really old and could be a backbreaker even when u have a 8800GT which is fine for this game (CPU and GPU are always related to each other in performence for games, weak cpu drags down a topnotch gpu e.g.)

like mentioned before, dont use old hardware with windows vista.
this is a system that requires high perfomence hardware for gaming.
when xp needs 2gb ram vista mostly recommends 4gb ram.
a P4 on vista is a selfshot in your foot. 2gb ram on vista are way to less.

i hope i could help some ppl do get some kind of understanding in this case. partly its hard to explain and my text would go way to long if i would go deep into details.

Re: NBA 2K10 PC thread

I just hope 2k10 has been optimized (especially the handling of the physics) as simballer has said.

I pushed my cpu up to 3.10 ghz (the AMD 64X2 5000 black edition is such a great oc'er) and its still not that smooth on ultra high. I know its not the latest and greatest cpu, but you'd think it'd be enough.

Does that keyboard/mouse unplugging really work? im gonna give it a shot.

Re: NBA 2K10 PC thread

unplugging is only way i can play without lags. the ultra high setting with moving jerseys was initially not available for pc though. so it wasnt really programmed, even it works on intel quads and gtx cards (still these are the most expansive and highend hardware devices u can get nowadays for pc)

NBA 2k10 PC Requirements (kinda)
P.S.: Rumor has it that 2k10 is optimized and has the same specs as 2k9!

Good find, thanks. By the way, I don't think it's a rumor, SimBaller said it himself. So I'll take it as official.

Re: NBA 2K10 PC thread

Thanks for the links, dom. Looks good. If Very High model settings run like they should this year, I will be more than happy with the visuals.

is it possible to plug in the ps3 charge cable from the ps3 controller to the computer and play nba 2k10 that way?

not sure bro, but i think it's possible. btw, ps2 controller has a converter (to usb). not sure what it's called like
