Lets get a topic going about the system requirements, So what do you think?

What are the requirements and will you need to have Windows Vista in order to play

**Terin** · 14-11-2006, 09:52 PM

you wont need vista and requiremts havnt been announced yet.

Id say youd probably want the following to get you by fairly ok.

3.0ghz cpu
256mb gpu
1gb ram

I would say you would need at least maybe a high end 7 series if not an 8 series nvidia or well I am not too Familair with ATI so whatever is equivelent to that. as for processor I am thinking that the high end fx or core 2 duo's or the new quadro could handle it fine w/o being 3.0 ghz. But I really have no idea :P 256 mb is too broad I have a video card 7300gs that gets 512mb of mem but doesn't push much out. I would say at least 2 gigs would be good!

BUt I don't know what do you other guys think?

I personally would love to see a 2gb gpu but the highest I have seen is 1Gb. I feel that most 7 or 8 series Nvidia or 1800 or higher series ATI should handle the game without difficulties. I feel that they would be strangling themselves if they did not configure the game to be able to run on high end AGP cards as well. System memory will prolly need to be at least 1Gb along with a min P4 3Gb cpu or equivalent.

One thing you will very probably need is a new motherboard. No matter the CPU and graphics card you pick up if you're mainboard can't handle the BUS load those high end pieces of hardware won't help you with you hit your bottleneck. So check your bus, if you've got an older motherboard and otherwise new hardware, snag a new motherboard. I imagine this game is all going to be about transfer rates.

LOL Sorry I forgot to put a period I was saying that! I meant the Video Memory Does not matter as much as the power of the GPU . THe 2 gigs I meant was for system memory LOL Sorry!

Most people are moving from 1Gb to 2Gb of system memory this year and the rest is probably going to do that in 2007. By most people I'm of course talking about the gamers.

So Terin's guess is quite good, except for the lack of 1Gb system mem.

Hey I am sure that if you upgraded with ALL top notch stuff it will still be good and usable . But if you just upgraded with Mainstream stuff it probalby will be WAY cheaper in 6 months.
