about【x4】on PS4?

Post by liy001234567 » Mon, 27. Sep 21, 10:24

Hello, I want to ask if [X4] series can log in to PS4. My computer is poor. I don't know if I can play on PS4 😂

Your only download choices are Steam or GOG for PC/laptop, sorry.

Also you were in the wrong forum, so moving this across.

If your computer is bad but you have a good internet connection, you could play it using an online service like Geforce Now.

I don't think GeForce Now makes any real difference for a CPU-bound game, but I may be wrong.

Mods: Change the subject of the OP to something more suitable for the question/content.

X4 can run on some pretty old hardware. I used to run it on a I7 920, a first generation core I processor. I do admit the play experience was far from ideal, but it still ran! Pretty much the main requirement is 3GB of video memory since below that it can be unstable and the graphics might bug out. Even something old like a GTX 760 will run X4 pretty well as long as it has more than 3GB of video memory, and I still run X4 on that even to this day.

Should run X4. Due to the weak CPU there might be performance issues during very heavy combat (hundreds of ships like drones). You might also have to pause X4 when using the map if performance becomes too bad as the map view is quite demanding on the CPU as well.

There are 2 versions of that GPU with different VRAM a 960M 2GB and 960M 4GB. If you have the 4GB VRAM version you should be OK.
On the CPU front I use a 6700HQ on the laptop which is barely 12% faster than the 6300HQ so you should be OK.

Your normal RAM might be more of an issue if you have just 4GB. :(

Well, I guess I'll just wait until I get a new pc, it feels a little strained to run this game right now... The experience is not good

Check the system settings to find out how much VRAM you have is easy :)

On Windows 10, right click on the desktop select Display Settings, then Advanced Display Settings (down the bottom), select Display Adaptor properties.
See what it says at Dedicated Video Memory.

I thought you meant you had 4 GB video memory when you said "4G". I would recommend at least 8 GB main memory to play X4 as late game it can be quite memory hungry and it gives you room for background applications like browsers. It might run with 4 GB main memory but there may be performance implications at times due to paging. You will still need at least 3 GB video memory (or the 4GB version of that mobile card) for reliable play.
