    those are suprisingly low requirements. Even bioshock ran superbly on my Vostro 1700 with near full graphics (both games use Unreal Engine). Props to the coders behind this engine i guess :)

    Intel's new x3100 will run this game at infinite fps with settings turned all the way up.

    Those are amazingly low system requirements... 512MB of system RAM sounds kind of fishy - you could hardly even run Vista on that...

    And as everyone else says, those ATI ones are messed up. 7800 GTX = x1800xt, not an x1300... :confused:

    but that's like minimum of all minimums, which would mean something like 640*480, all minimum, etc. so it's fairly possible to predict that u'll be able to run it on those setting with 512mb of ram. but all we are doing right now is called speculation :)
