AMD X2 4200+ Dual Core 2gb DDR800 ram GeForce 7600 GT OC'd edition Windows Vista Home Premium SATA 250gb HDD
I run on high settings (a step below the top) and everything cranked between 80 and 100% @ 1152x864 The game looks amazing, best looking world I've seen in 10 years of playing mmorpgs. I do chop a little bit in major cities (IE Martok) though. Burt that goes away after a few moments :) Aside from that it's smooth sailing :)

AMD 64 3200 1GB Low Latency Corsair Ram XFX 6800GT 256MB MSI K8T Everything is default no overclocking Settings in game are default balanced and resolution at 1680x1050 Get around average of 27fps which looks smooth to me, but will chunk the first time I get to a city and after that it runs smooth. Will get a random hitch here or there but not all the time or half the time.
edited, because forgot to put resolution |

Runs on Max settings (Highest Quality w/ x16) in the wilds with this (I turn it to High Quality and sometimes Balanced in crowded cities):

Don't be fooled by higher stats because the cards quality depends on a lot of things. I paid 2 thousand for this rig 16 months ago from Alienware, but I'm pretty sure you could put this exact system together for between $700.00 and $1,000.

We'll eventually want to ditch our Audigy SE's and jump to something else NOT Creative - and we've been impressed with other razer products' attention to detail (granted their firmware flashing instructions BLOW). |

AMD Athlon XP 3100+
2 GIGs of cheap RAM Geforce 7600GT 256MB ASUS A8N-SLI mobo Running 1280x1024 at settings on High Quality with Volumetric Clouds OFF and all Shading settings toned down. Average 25 to 35 FPS in and out of towns and battle. Feels fluid. Note that I do need to type /flush about every 30 minutes to keep Vanguard continuesly running smoothly. "I am a biotic god! I think things... and they happen!"

Originally posted by voodoun It sounds great IMO. I havnt read all too much bad about it either (see newegg.com customer reviews). I have always been a Creative buyer but my current rig has the Asus motherboard and at the time I was shopping for cards, the X-Fi's were know to have issues with those boards. The sound positioning is very good. I had been playing BF2142 at the time of the sound upgrade (from a 2ZS) and immediately noticed the rear channels having better seperation. The explosions (if you have played, specifically the Titan going boom) were much clearer and refined. Music and Video playback is fantastic, the Dolby features do their job well. This is probably what I notice the most. I have gone out and bought a new CD and tried it in the computer and gave it a listen. Then brought it into my car the next day (which has a pretty beefy 9 speaker system) and thought it sounded flat compared to off the computer. Never once thought that before with the old card, the car always sounded better. Hardware support I have only had one issue with it and that was Quake 4 because of the OpenAL. It works...you can hear things...but the hardware support is not there. There are OpenAL Beta drivers for Vista (I believe XP also but not positive) but I havnt tried them yet as it works perfect with what I do play. I have played...lets see: WoW, BF2142, FEAR, NFS: Carbon, VG:SoH, Neverwinter Nights 2 all with full hardware support and sounding very good. |

Dell XPS System P4 2.8 Ghz (w/800 Mhz FSB) 1.5 GB DDR RAM 80 GB HD 128 MB ATI Radeon 9800 Pro AGP Audigy 2 Soundcard Windows Vista OS Honest thoughts on how this game will run with this system appreciated! Many thanks folks. -G

AMD 64 3000
2 GB 400Mhz DDR RAM WD Raptor SATA HD ATI X1950 Pro PCI-E Audigy 2 Win XP w/ SP2 At 1280x1024 and high quality settings, 30-40 fps most of the time. It will dip down to 22-24 in really busy city areas. All in all, not bad, though. |

First, please don't buy Dell (I live 10 minutes away...) Go here for computer needs :) http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/ Have two of these for the game and will pass on FPS soon once the patching is done. Right now it is just too early to really determine what will be needed. I agree with a couple up above me, that at LEAST 2MB of ram is needed here if not 4!. anything less will cause heartache.
