News on system requirements?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

This is really one for Steve,

Will CMX2 be coded to take advantage of dual-core processors? I believe threaded is the right jargon for such coding.

My intension is to struggle through with my current machine for the next year, using minimum graphics settings in CMX2, and then buy a new rig when Longhorn/Vista is out.

The big question for me is whether a 64MB graphics card will hit the minimum spec for CMX2… it may not, in which case I will have to upgrade in the next few months.

I have a laptop, a very good one that I am happy with, but the lack of an ability to upgrade the graphics card may drive me to a desktop next time.

All the best,

Kip.

[QB] I'm hoping my current rig will be sufficient to run CMx2 with all of its bells and whistles.

Nvidia GeForce Ti4600 128mb 4XAGP (I'm already setting aside cash to get a GeForce 6800 Ultra 256mb 8XAGP

With a 2 ghz+ cpu, 1 gig of memory and a 6800 GT card I'd say you would be able to run several current generation fps games very well. Don't bother with the Ultra, its too expensive compared to the miniscule extra oomph it gives you. You could also see what ATI has up its sleeves coming next month. Or just wait for 2006 when CMx2 has shipped smile.gif </font>

Bump

Well it has been about a year since this thread was bumped or talked about. It is weird that a year ago we were talking about CM:SF system requirements like it was right around the corner. However now that some tests have actually been run and small games played I am wondering if there is anything more specific on what the requirements are going to be?

I suppose with all the mac and microsoft OS changes going on these days they're perhaps playing it safe - waiting til the game's close to finished before announcing compatibilities/requirements.

Still, I'm going to need to work up some nerve to start purchasing computer upgrades. The sooner they have hard info for us the better!
