Why does Mass Effect 1 run so slow on my machine if I have an XFX NVidia 9400GT video card? [closed]
- by Papuccino1
I so sick and tired of having my components pass the minimum requirements of a game and then I get 15 FPS on the game on everything low.
Should't PC developers say 'use at least this video card for a smooth 30 FPS'?
Here are my specs:
Windows 7
2GB DDR2 RAM
XFX Nvidia 9400gt
Intel Pentium D Dual Core 2.8ghz
I should be at LEAST getting 30 FPS on everything low right?
Please tell me what I can do to make games run as they should, or is my video card not good for these games?
Here are the recommended requirements from the official site:

My videocard is 9400GT, how is that worse than a 7900GTX? :S
Edit 2:
I should note, that I get poor frames when running the game in absolute BOTTOM specs. lowest resolution, no particles, etc. etc. Absolute ZERO and getting poor framerates.
