patboy Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Hey I just noticed that at Wargamer site System Specs Reviewer's Specs CPU: Pentium D 3.0GHz Operating System: Windows XP Professional RAM: 2.0 GB Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7600 Sound Card: Not sure to be honest…but it works like a charm Internet: DSL Monitor: 1280 x 1024 max res Hard Drive Space: 350 GB HD : 350 GB free space :eek: Pat 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 That's the reviewer's system, not required specifications. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patboy Posted May 26, 2007 Author Share Posted May 26, 2007 Ooops ! Thanks to have pointed that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew H. Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Those are kind of lame specs for a wargame reviewer, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyepilot Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I asked for specs a long time ago but nobody answered. Looking at the reviewers specs I think there is a chance I maybe might be OK. (maybe) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_tom_w Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 If I was to guess about this I might suggest: something like: System Specs CPU: Pentium 2.0GHz (or better) Operating System: Windows XP Professional RAM: 1.0 GB (512 megs bare Minimum, 2 gigs or more likely for faster playability in RealTime ) Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7600 (?) bigger and faster is always better (More RAM means better frame rate right?) Sound Card: You need one Internet: DSL Monitor: 1280 x 1024 max res Hard Drive Space: 350 GB HD : 350 GB free space :eek: BUT that would just be a guess [ May 29, 2007, 08:10 AM: Message edited by: aka_tom_w ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allenj7 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Can you run the TOW demo? If so, you're probably fine. It's hard to tell since there is all of this bug logging stuff running in the background in the beta version that probably won't be present in the release version. I have a AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400, GeForce 8800 GTS, 2 GB of RAM, and running at 1280x1024 it was decent on high settings (20-30 FPS). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steiner14 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Wow, with that CPU and a 8800GTS only around 20-30fps? So at highest settings a state of the art system with an extremely fast GPU seems to be quite adequate, isn't it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allenj7 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 That's typical for a beta version. The same thing happened with the beta of Europa Universalis III. It ran decent in beta, but it got smooth when the final version was released. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 "Can you run the TOW demo? If so, you're probably fine." TOW's supposedly got problems with older dual-core pc chip, and it plays upside-down on a Bootcamp-partitioned mac (with very simple solutions, to be sure). CMSF will probably run more reliably than TOW. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pad152 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Will the game run on Windows Vista or is this an issue due to Open-GL vs. DX10 vs. DX9 crap? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 It runs on Vista, but the Nvidia drivers leave a little to be desired. Ever try Google earth with opengl on Vista? it shows how bad the Vista drivers are for opengl. I continue to test with the latest drivers, I currently run the 160.03s, have seen if there is newer yet, been to busy making things.
