I have a desktop hooked up to a 55inch tv. But, I'm getting a secondary laptop so I can play it when I go back to stay at my parents' house for Thanksgiving. Sure, I needed a new laptop for travel, anyway. But I spent significantly more money for something that could play DAI at decent settings.

 

Upgrading the desktop will have to wait.

Well... I haven't done anything and probably won't. I have no job due to several reasons I will not disclose, I live with a family of six currently. And I'm on welfare. My computer is five years old and has never been upgraded so getting the pc version is out lol. But! There is slightly good news! I got my Xbox 360 back after 3 years (because of drama, and a dickish brother) from my older sister's house! Now I just need the game! That is only if we have enough money next month between paying bills and buying food.... *sighs* I always envy you folks who can afford these things (or can work in normal society enough to GET a job >>) So if I don't get it in November I'll get it for Christmas and if not then I'll get it on my birthday the following month :> So there's still hope for me! :'D /end rant/

So I'm starting this thread because I want to see if there are people out there that are just as crazy as I am. The demos and trailers for Inquisition have been fueling my madness for some time now.... but the tipping point was when the PC specs were revealed. When the PC system specs were revealed for DAI, I realized that I couldn't play Inquisition the way I wanted to. So, I decided to change that.

 

Not going to post exact figures on here, but if you recognize these parts you'll probably get the jist of just how much money I've sunk into a new rig worthy of Inquisition (and future titles, in my defense).

 

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.40 GHz) --Overclocked

Graphics Card: 2 of EVGA GTX980 Superclocked ACX 2.0 4GB GDDR5 256bit, DVI-I, DP x 3, HDMI in SLI --Further Overclocked

Motherboard: ASUS SABERTOOTH Z97 MARK1 ATX DDR3 2600 LGA 1150

RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) CL9 @1.5V UDIMM 240-Pin

HDD: 3 of Seagate Desktop ST4000DM000 HDD 4 TB SATA 6Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive 5900rpm

SSD: Crucial M500 960GB SATA 2.5-Inch 7mm (with 9.5mm adapter/spacer) Internal Solid State Drive  --For OS and Inquisition

Sound Card: Sound Blaster Z PCIe Gaming Sound Card with High Performance Headphone Amp and Beam Forming Microphone

CPU Cooler: Noctua 6 Dual Heatpipe with 140mm/130mm Dual SSO Bearing Fans CPU Cooler NH-D14

Case: Cooler Master HAF X - Full Tower Computer Case with High Airflow Windowed Side Panel and USB 3.0

---Grand total of 10 fans (includes GPU ACX model fans) running passive when possible

Sound System: Corsair Gaming Audio Series SP2500 High-Power 2.1 PC Speaker System

Monitor: Acer XB280HK bprz Black 28" 1ms 4K Widescreen LED Backlight G-sync LCD Monitor300 cd/m2 1000:1

 

Plus some other stuff like optical drive, power supply, mouse/keyboard, and internet card.

 

So, what crazy lengths have you guys gone to in order to play Inquisition the way you want? Include system builds, vacation times, "sick days", sending the wife and kids on a vacation, or anything else you can think of. :lol:

Uhhh, I'm pretty sure you overdid it by, like, twice. :lol: One 980 would have gotten you max, I think, and no way Inquisition and an OS take 960GB. And is that 4 TB apiece? Are you a data packrat? :P And don't overclock that CPU. You won't need to, and you'll wear it out faster. Same for GPUs. You will not get any improvement out of DA:I with that. By the time games are stressing that system, the parts will be slowing down from wear.

One 980 would have most definitely gotten me max, but 4k in max @ 60 FPS and AA is debatable. And that IS 4 TB a piece. And yes I'm very aware that 1 TB is more than enough to save an OS and Origin games on. And I AM going to overclock my CPU because it will run like a bat out of hell and so long as I can keep the voltage steady it should live for as long as I need it, not to mention I'll likely upgrade it again in the near future. I haven't done benchmarks on any of my components yet, but I've seen others and have a general idea of how I'll have this system performing.

 

And inquisition is not the only game I'll be running on this rig lol.

If this game breaks new records they will have a rehab for the game

Guy: Why am I here

Councilor: You have a issue

Guy: What you talking about { hands shaking ]

Councilor: You have not gone to work and you have not gone to bed all you do is play the game

Guy: Please I need the game fine give me water { councilor gives him water } cool can I play now

Councilor: fine lets see what this game is about ( as I begin to watch the man play I want to try it before I know it)

Hours later

Officer: Seems like another case of DAI took claim of two more people

DAI: You must not resist

Officer: I must not resist >.<

I kept my PC modifications pretty chill. I can run Battlefield 4 on Ultra at 60FPS. I'll be fine. :)

 

I did use the rest of my sick days to have Inquisition's release week empty. I have two weeks set for Inquisition because it comes out the week before Thanksgiving break. 

 

I also got the game on PS4 for when I travel and don't want to drag my PC everywhere. 

Over the next couple weeks, I'll be stocking up on Beef Jerky, Gatorade and coupons for pizza/chinese delivery.

This makes me on the fence about what to say... so I'll take the safe route and say that I hope your surgery goes well and I'm sorry to hear about that..

 

Haha thanks! I was being dramatic, it's just a hernia  :D

My PC can't play it, so I'm hoping that the PS4 version comes to Redbox so I can at least rent it.

lol ok. :lol: I still think you'd find that it would run the same on something lower sans OC, but whatever floats your boat (and sinks your wallet ;) ). Wish I had the kinda money lying around to shell out on a system like that.

EDIT: Ok, I read up a little on running at 4k, and I guess the dual 980s really are necessary. Jeez.

Why can't you buy it on PS4, if you were going to buy it for PC?

My bosses/coworkers know by now to ask me "So what game is coming out this time?" when I request a week off of work.  Did it before for ME2 & 3, and DA2.  Luckily I work for the government which is surprisingly super flexible with time off.

 

I was planning on buying an XBox One specifically for DAI, but my parents preempted that idea by getting me one for XMas.

 

Sooo......basically what I'm saying is that I am going to zero lengths at all to play this game beyond the purchase price of an Inquisitor's Edition.   :rolleyes:

Sigh. Ok.. let me defend myself for a sec here.

 

Firstly, I haven't upgraded my rig in so long there are cobwebs in the case. Secondly, I'm powering this thing on a 4K display with an end-goal of MAX everything, that includes the highest possible rendering settings across the board. Thirdly, I built this rig to power through all games for a very long time to come. Granted I will probably upgrade the CPU and maybe the GPUs once within the next year or so (the CPU is a liklier bet), but I'm building this thing to last.

 

Aaaaannnd finally, my old rig had 500 GB and I was so cramped with space it wasn't even funny, so 13 TB makes hellbiter a happy boy. Besides, where else am I gonna put all my naughty videos?

I edited my post, because I read up a little and apparently dual GPUs actually are the price of entry, which is absurd. Dear god.

If you need storage for naughty videos, consider this method: http://www.smbc-comi.../?id=3520#comic

No need to defend yourself mate, it's your money do what makes you happy so long as it doesn't harm anyone else right?  Just frankly you aren't doing anything crazy really, if you have that kinda of money to throw around on overkill for gaming it's not a sacrifice  Me on the build would be crazy sacrificing, I wouldn't have lodging or food.  ;)

i'm not going to lie that computer cost me an arm, a leg, and a few other appendages as well. But this thread is about crazy sacrifices for Inquisition and this is my dirty confession. :lol:
