honeybadger Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Are you using a laptop? If so, you are SoL, just turn down settings as best you can. It also helps to post specs when asking for performance advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.C.Santos Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I'm not fully understanding what you are saying. You have an Integrated graphics card and a dedicated one (Nvidia)? If yes, then play with your Nvidia card and not the integrated one. Integrated cards should not be used to play video games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, the more detail you give, the more detail you get; the clearer questions you ask, the clearer answers you receive. Learn this lesson early.

honeybadger Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 (edited) edited Please find your specs. Your edited OP added literally nothing to your post except ruling out that you are using a laptop. Its even less clear because you dont mention your video card AT ALL in OP. Please expand upon the integrated/Nvidia graphics card you have. That's all we care about. There isn't even a question in your post. Try again, I'll give you one more chance.

Tetshio Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Windows 8, hmm. Go to the start menu (one with the boxes type icons), type "dxdiag" without quotes, it should show you an app called dxdiag. Run it and you can see all of your PC specs including the video card under the display tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athros Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 -edited- is this enough info? It'll be better if you can give the model / type of your desktop (usually printed on the case/monitor, or even displayed on your System Properties), it might helps a lot.

RawGritz Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Intel's HD 5000 Integrated Graphics on the newer Haswell processors is more than enough to play Warframe at 1080p. But don't expect constant 50+ fps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saenol Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 it's got a plexiglass side that i can look through and i can see one empty slot that looks like a really long ram slot with an extra little bit on the end, i think its for another ..er... thing. video card i hope. This certainly sounds like a PCI-E 16x slot. Chances are you can add a new video card, but you should probably bush up on your hardware knowledge before you do so. ruddy hell... well can anyone post a link to a cheap one that can run it pretty well and not cost a buttflux ton of money? something inside an unemployed 16 year olds price range.. like at most 100 There are plenty of video cards that would be an improvement over any onboard you are likely to have, even for 100 dollars. You'll want to double check the brand, model, and capacity of your power supply before committing to anything that requires more power than the slot itself can deliver, however. Something like a Radeon 7750 GDDR5 is likely the best option in your budget.
