I now actually NEED a new graphics card.

Yay I can run this without a upgrade!

Muhahahaha! Finally. Here's to hoping for 1920x1200 with at least 2aa and 8af!

Radeon 9000? hahaaaa
That thing barely processed Morrowind. Nice.

Definitely glad my laptop suffices though.

If this thing's representative then I'm gonna be needing a new PC soon if I want to keep up with PC gaming. Damn. That's just expensive.

Talk about your partial lists. Radeon 9000, but not the X300? *snorts*

Agreed Radeon 9000? Hah! That thing chugs with Morrowind!

However I'm above and beyond the recommend requirments. All is well.

I think I might just get in on the Minimum System Requirements. But if I dont I will need an new graphics card.

Well, with my 200 a week savings plan starting soon, it won't be long until my upgrading begins in earnest.

There goes my bank account...

Bah, my Athlon64 3000+, 2gb ram & a 6600gt w/ 256mb onboard ram isnt going to cut it for the high end.

I was planning on upgrading for Supreme Commander and Oblivion, since the CPU is getting a little old.

Hopefully the game isn't hideously unoptimized like Morrowind was. If it isn't, then it looks like I'll be able to run this at 1600x1050 with AA.

I'll be able to run it, but I want to get a new video card and at least 512 MB more RAM anyway.

I'm at the basic Reccomended edge, I need another 6800GT.

Netko · Post by **Netko** » 2006-02-02 12:47pm

I'm just slightly above minimum. Oh well, as expected. Good thing I still have a CRT screen, 800*600 here I come.

The Grim Squeaker · Post by **The Grim Squeaker** » 2006-02-02 01:39pm

Allright, just above the reccomended, no shadows but 1280x1024 with 4AA for me

. (3.2Ghz, X800XT plat, 2 Gig's of ram)

Wonder if this game will be optimized to use dual cores?
Even so, processor (3800+) should be more than enough (could even try a bit of overclocking if things are not to my liking), 7800gt should be a pretty reasonable leg up from the 6800, and as is my saying 1 gig enough, 2 gigs overdoing it, we'll see if that holds true! I suspect I'll run at native resolution (1280x1024), which is what I perfer, and some level of anti-aliasing, simple shadows, high or mostly texture, distance and similar settings, if such are available.

Yes, its dual core using.
