Nice just about to post this. Recommended is a quad core, going to use all cores then?

you'd hope it would be multi threaded

So Core 2 Duo MEANS Core 2 Duo and nothing else?? I have not problem with this myself, but most of my gaming group consists of gamers who're still stuck with teh old PENTIUM D! What if they're PENTIUM D's were 2ghz? would it still matter?

Good lord this game is CPU and RAM hungry.

Heck yeah.....I'd be surprise if you run that game above 10fps if you have an old CPU like that(At low settings).

Pentium Ds are no where close to a Core 2 Duo @2ghz. Pentium Ds are like the * children a P4 and a C2D

Core 2 Duo: 2Ghz?? Is that 2 GHZ in total or 2 GHZ per duo processor.

people kept telling me how i wont need a quad for this game *Rubs in face*

I dont know * about computers but im trying toup grade my pc so it can run games better. Is a Pentium 4 Processor 640 with HT @ 3.2Ghz any good? thats what i have now. Btw i also have 4gb ram and an ATI something with 512mb. Im getting it on Xbox but i want to play the beta

*... Pentium 4 only has one core i guess thats bad

So that's why I bought a quadcore 3 years ago

.........BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Sure kid, try the beta out and see if your Pentium 4 survives.

Wow i wish i would of researched that before i asked. I just fell like an * now.

hot damn

meet the new crysis

anyways i hope my 4850 can run it at decent settings probably mediuum or high at a stable framerate

plus my quadcores should hlep out

what about a Nvidia Geforce 8600? is that any good for gpu - im fine on ram and processing speed just wondering

well your definately over the minimum requirements so you should be fine. For the record, Batman Arkham asylum had for recommended specs, a GTX260 + a 9800gtx( for dedicated physx) and it got 53 frame average with all settings maxed at 1680*1050 with physx set to high, that's with no AA, but all ingame settings maxed including physx and still getting near a 60 frame average. I just hope this game runs as well
