    It will work. I think you are reading the recommended processors and not the minimum. I can run it with the C2D 2.0 GHz.

    Dude, I think you did not see my post.
    I can play 1920x1200 ALL LOW at over 30 fps. NO PROBLEMS.
    And 1024x768 all high 18 fps average. Or 800x600 with 20 + fps average.
    The game looks awesome in all high :D
