    Looks pretty good for the notebook gaming community. But I must say, remember that Company Of Heroes: Opposing Fronts listed the Nvidia 6800 series as recommended, but it took a lot more to run high settings. Hopefully the game is truly as optimized as these specs portray, and I really hope Relic leaves DX10 as a menu option the way it was in COH.


    Beta news on Thursday makes me really freaking excited. I hope my new processor does me proud. :D

    7800? That would be good if true. Thanks for the heads up!

    yay! I cant wait.
    I've been drooling over the screen shots and the videos about this game.

    I cant wait for the beta. And more so the game itself.

    To bad i have to play as space marines though. I was hoping against hope that we would get more than one playable race (and it "had" to be mon-keigh) :p

    Hmm wonder if it'll run ok on my rig (Asus in sig).

    Just hope it's not like GTA IV or Crysis where even the min specs don't really amount to any kind of helpful info...

    My rig runs CoH OF in max settings, in a res of 1440x900 with a comfortably framerate, not that that's anything to go by.

    I might sign up for the Beta when I can that way at least I'll get a free demo (assuming they won't release one like most games companies these days)..

    Yes I'm very siked for this. I have every Warhammer 40k game and am growing tired of Soulstorm. Hopefully I can play this game at native rez (1920x1200) with medium settings and get good frame rate. Thanks for the heads up.
