Re: NBA 2K15 system requirements
It's still hard to say for sure though - I could run FIFA just fine with its requirements, but if you look at something like Watch Dogs I fall short of the Recommended (which is why I got it on PS4). The requirements still really vary game to game, even in the same year.Comment

Damn. It's good that "They will all look and play beautifully", but about the PC there is a caveat - not on all configurations would be so.Comment

Re: NBA 2K15 system requirements
Alright, for you PC gamers here, I have a question and I'm not sure anymore (it's been a really long time since I built my current machine). I have a Gigabyte EX58-UD3R motherboard with a GTX 275. I am running a core i7 and have 8 GB RAM. Now I know that my graphics card falls more toward minimum requirements insofar as memory, so I was thinking about SLI with another of my graphics cards (I can pick one up for probably about 60 bucks and really save myself an overhaul). I know there's a version of my motherboard with SLI in the name, here's my question, does that mean that mine cannot SLI? Because if so, dang, 2K15 is gonna be running hot on my current machine. It seems like the bottleneck here is (could be) the graphics card, nothing else seems to really be lacking that much.
Also, to that point, do you guys recommend running SLI with two equivalent cards or getting one with a bit more juice to get the total memory up to 2GB? And assuming I can get a couple jet engines to cool this thing, is heat going to override any attempts to cool it short of water?
Again, I've been way out of the game for much too long, and I don't think I can sell my wife on a big overhaul when this one is still running pretty darn well for it's age and miles."The designated hitter rule is like letting someone else take Wilt Chamberlain's free throws."

Then yes, it can do SLI. I was going to say boards that specifically push the SLI tend to support higher bus speeds, while the others tend to throttle the PCI speed down a bit with 2 cards present, but according to the specs from that page:
2 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x16
Either way, 8x and 8x in SLI would probably be fine. And likely a decent upgrade if you can get another GTX 275 for cheap. I don't know if heat will be a huge issue - it may be quite loud, and you may have to get creative with the space in your case. Also keep in mind your PSU will need to be able to handle it (both cable wise, and amperage/power wise).
Personally I'd probably get a new card as I've never been a big fan of the multi GPU setups, but you'd obviously have to spend a bit more.Comment

Re: NBA 2K15 system requirements
Right, and that's what I'm trying to avoid. I'd love nothing more than to upgrade to a huge card, but I think I can sell my wife on getting a cheap card and going that route. I have a pretty roomy full size case, with tons of fan expansion room, so I'm not too worried about getting the airflow in there. And all this is contingent of course upon my PSU 's ability to provide power. I'm fairly certain I left some decent room in there for an upgrade down the line, but I'm going to have to check that obviously.
And yes, that is the board. I just wanted to get it from someone else that isn't me that it was even possible before I launch a full scale investigation. Thanks a lot for the input."The designated hitter rule is like letting someone else take Wilt Chamberlain's free throws."

Re: NBA 2K15 system requirements
I'm unfamiliar with the graphics card terminology. Will a Nvidia Geforce GTX 460M do the trick?Comment

Re: NBA 2K15 system requirements
Sorry man but I really doubt you will be happy with the performance on anything other than recent high end laptop card. I think the 460m is a 2010 card?
I gamed for two and a half years on a laptop with a GT555m and it ran most 360/PS3 ports just fine but as soon as I tried something newer like BF4 or Watchdogs it was pretty clear that it wasn't going to cut it. I bit the bullet and built a decent gaming PC.Comment

Re: NBA 2K15 system requirements
Yeah I have the 560m. It is a great little mobile graphics card but once BF4 came out it wasn't going to cut it. I haven't upgraded yet as I might go the PS4 route, we'll see.Comment

I really don't know much about computer graphics cards, but would anyone be able to tell me how NBA 2k15 might play on my laptop?
