no

you may be asking why

reason being the GT630 dont have the muscle to play this game at acceptable level, even with every graphics setting is set at the lowest your framerate is still around 10fps

mind you even some users on GTX660 or HD7870 might suffer from framerate drop when the actions get hot

GTX 470, GTX 580, GTX 690, Each number in its name is relevant, !st digit, is series(each series gets better power usage unloaded and loaded), 2nd digit is performance category, (higher better) the *90 series always have dual GPUs, and are beast.

ok so what ones would be needed for playing MWO with alright framerate?

Any GTX series would do it they are multimedia and gaming,(best to go with GTX650(Ti) or better they are more efficient than say a GTX 480 or 570) ........ A GT 430 series will play blu rays and high def multimedia station well, but has not got the memory speed to play barely any games 1GB @128bits would run a mean minesweeper......but not much else

Depends on the ingame settings u use. With almost all on max u wil need atleast a 560ti.
On medium or low things dont change much but u could probably get a 460 or 650ti / amd 5870 / 6870 / 7790.

I'm using a GTX560 (not Ti) factory overclocked (DS) and I get around 40 ~ 60 FPS with everything Very High (Of course, Blur, Post Processing and Antialiasing are off/low). I recommend a GTX660 Ti or better.

correction the GT640 barely scrapes thur

dont waste money on anything in the GT range

you should be aiming for GTX series or HD7750 range

a HD5870 matched with a 2600k will do high settings at 1200p and get between 45-50 fps. I replaced a pair of 5870 cards with my current 7970, which gets 50 fps at 1600p.The 5870 was equal to the 6950, not the 6870.

All you have to do is look up these two cards memory bandwidth and bus width. that's all there is to it. no more no less. GTX 650Ti will run it. GT 640 will run it, poorly.....

For what its worth, I've seen an HD4000 run this game on 15-30fps(Every setting at minimum).

[Alymbic]

I used to run MWO on my laptop with a 525m, used to get 25-30fps in windowed (38 average in the mechlab) with environmental and shadows on low and most other things on medium. If you have to, its doable, but its not exactly easy on the eyes. You sacrifice a lot of the nicer stuff when you turn down environmental.

[Monsoon]

Last year, I was running this game on a GT220, it was serviceable on lower settings, but I would certainly not recommend it. Now, my GTX550 seems to handle it pretty well on High graphics.

ok ty for the info i will be playing the game for the game not the graphics cause ik that the graphics even on low are really good and i have played earlier mechwarrior games and i want to see if this is anything like them

[Dragoon20005]

dont follow his advise

you need to use at least the GTX or HD 7750 MINIMUM!!! if you want good gameplay

this game does give your PC a workout
