  1. C-Man Says

    No, it looks like your computer currently doesn’t meet the minimum requirements for Skyrim.
    Your CPU (FX-4100), RAM and other specs are fine. But there’s no graphics card listed, which probably means the computer doesn’t have one. It only has integrated graphics, which is fine for everyday work but not gaming. Approximately 70% of your overall performance in games depends upon the graphics card, it’s THE single most important component for a gaming computer.
    You’d need to add a real graphics card to play Skyrim. Something inexpensive like a Radeon HD 6570 would allow you to play on medium settings.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as…
    But for high settings you’d want at least a $100ish card like a Radeon HD 6770. Even better a Radeon HD 6850 or 6870 (which can play on max settings). However, upgrading to a 6770 or higher card would require replacing your computer’s power supply.
    So you’d need something like this:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as…
