How to Play High Quality Games on Low End PC
Games are good exercise for our minds. With time, computer games have evolved a lot. Almost all kinds of games these days run in high definition and most of them require a high configuration PC. So, if you play high-quality games but have a low-end PC, it will spoil the excitement.
A low-end PC (less RAM, outdated graphics card, etc.) is not capable of running high-end games. But that is not enough reason to lose hope. In this tutorial, we are going to explain, how you can play high-end (high-quality) games on a low-end (low configuration) PC. We will be using the 3D Analyzer utility for scaling down high-end games to be able to run them on a low-configuration PC.

What is the 3D Analyzer and How Does it Work?
Before we go any further, let’s know about 3D Analyzer. The 3D Analyzer does transform and lightning hardware emulation which helps in running TnL games on PCs without dedicated graphics cards. It can emulate most of the features of 3D games such as Pixel shader, Bump Maps, SW TnL, etc. But a normal user may not understand these technical terms so in an easy language it helps to “play high-end games on low-end PCs“.

After you have selected the .exe file of the game, all the options of 3d Analyzer will be enabled. Now select the graphic card using which you want to emulate the game.
You can see the names of some graphic cards are given. Vendor ID and Device ID are also given below their names. Write the Vendor ID and the Device ID of the Graphic Card that you want to emulate in the two boxes provided.
3D-Analyze will use the selected graphics card to run or play the selected high-end game on your low-end PC. You can also enable other options to improve the game’s performance. You can also check the “force windowed mode” box to run the game in windowed mode instead of full screen.
Step 5: Play or Run High-End Games on Low-End PC

Your game will start running without any problem.
