@Preases
i doesnt look bad at all yeah, its actually quite low hey
but then again that guy is guessing...

@Mephisto
now that actually does look evil...or atleast GFX wise, thats a bit steep... especially considering what they ask for optimal...

but all this is before its released so we'll have to wait and see what the end result is don't we

Yeah, guessing generally isn't very accurate :p
That GFX requirement is steeper than Crysis'. you can play crysis on a 6800 on low. I'm sure blizzard wouldn't force people to at least have a GF7 series. Would be crazy :eek:

The lower the specs, the more sales they'll have...

My bro has a 7900GTX and a 3500+ AMD64 with 2GB DDR400 and plays Crysis at 1024x768 on medium if I'm not mistaken :)
 
we'll other than the gfx card i have a piece of crap at the moment, im waiting on my friend to let me know whats up...
then i'll get a Core2Duo E6420, and 2GB DDR 800, case, and 500watt PSU.
at the moment i have 1GB DDR800, Celeron D 2.66GHZ crap, 400watt PSU, Intel D945GTP board, nVidia 7800GTX
 
SC2 requirement rumors are false

Blizzard Denies Rumored StarCraft 2 System Specs
Leaked PC requirements are speculation.
by Jimmy Thang

May 22, 2008 - Spanish gaming magazine Micromania recently posted system specs for Blizzard's highly anticipated real-time strategy game, StarCraft 2. Even though the publication recently visited Blizzard's offices in Irvine, CA, Blizzard has denied the leak of the following PC requirements, which are now floating around the internets:

Minumum Requirements
Graphics: GeForce 7/8 Series or Radeon 1000/2000 with 256 MB RAM
CPU: Pentium 4
RAM: 1 GB
Internet: ADSL 1 Mbit

Recommended Requirements
Graphics: GeForce 8000 or Radeon 2000 series with 512 MB RAM
CPU: Core 2 Duo or Athlon X2.
RAM: 2 GB
Internet: ADSL 3 Mbit

Optimal Requirements
Graphics: Geforce 9000er or Radeon 3000er Series
CPU: Core 2 Duo 3 GHz or Athlon X2
RAM: 2GB with DualChannel mode

A Blizzard representative told IGN, "Blizzard has not released final, official system requirements for StarCraft II. The numbers you're seeing are a result of independent speculation from a Spanish game magazine."

For those who aren't up to date with hardware specs, these are fairly beefy hardware requirements as far as Blizzard games go, which usually cater towards a wide range of PCs.

For more information on StarCraft 2, check out the game's main page.

Damn I'm glad those SC2 specs where false, my computer just made the minimum under those standards :(.
 
Haha i read this thread from the begging! Official or not! ITS RATED WITH 5 *STARS* haha

I just cant wait till the new Stalker comes out, i finished the first one, i finished crises on all levels of difficulty, and i finished COD4, FEAR all three, and so much more, i want a more exciting game! Assasigns creed isnt bad though!
 
lol that was me... i think im the only one who voted hahaha

i haven't played the first STALKER yet :(
neither CRYSIS:(
me 2! on Hardened. awesome game, bit too short but still awesome:)
finished FEAR, Extraction Point:)(AWESOME game, just have too stop playing after a hour or so, or when it starts to get dark, coz that thing kills my nerves, i start to get paranoid lol, start shooting shadows, etc), must get Perseus Mendate still, oh and you'd be glad(if you liked FEAR) to know that there's a new one coming out entitled PROJECT ORIGIN:)
haven't playing ASSASINS CREED aslo :(
the new POP:) is designed on AC's Engine
 
Yeah well buddy, if u wanna play crises, which is FLIPPING awesome, go to musica or something, they selling for R300 and it comes with a crises shirt, its awesome, also a bonus disk and music disk in it, its not long though, got a short story line, but is awesome! I LOVED IT!
 
/me hasn't played any FEAR yet :o ........... but now I can and they will probably be on budget by now eh :D I just want the new STALKER big time though.
 
Good News Pc fans ! Capcom has announced that street Fighter IV will also launch alongside its ps3 and xbox counterparts ! seems like capcom has finally started to support pc gaming fully, 1st Devil may cry 4, Lost planet and now this lets hope Resident evil 5 will also come to pc.

and now we bring you back this thread....
to just say that im busy upgrading my pc finally!
got my e6420, 320gb hdd, and a new case yesterday. did the transplant...
and realised that my crap intel desktop D945GTP doen't support core2. today im gonna buy a Biostar GF7050V-M7 and when i get home i'll have to perform another transplant and then see if alls well. next week im looking to sell my 7800GTX for R800 and buy a Radeon(sorry nVidia didn't mean it) HD2900XT for R1600, then i'll probably have to buy a new psu since i have a 400w. think i'll buy the black power 550w psu. add one more ram and im done.

followed a few months later will be a new monitor, keyboard, DVD RW...

How does the 2900XT compare to the 3850?
The 256MB version is available for R1787 at take2. Isn't it maybe a better buy? Try to find some benchies :)
 
Well the HD2900XT is benched just below the 8800GT. and i believe it retails for about 3000 something

some time later:
Well goodie me, i just saw a crysis high detail demo, between a HD2900XT and a 8800GTX and the 2900 is tops the whole time
