CPU speed not fast enough?

Well, I got 1.8 GHZ cpu speed and the minimum said it needs to be 2.0 GHZ?? I got a ultra epic graphics card with an exrta GB of ram so I have 2gb now? will this make up for it? :S

thanks

In my experience the Gamebryo engine is more CPU-limited than GPU. That being said, I'm sure you'll be able to play, just with some options turned down.

Depends on what processor. If you're using a Pentium 4 chip at 1.8 GHz, there's no point in trying to run the game. If it's a Core 2 Duo at 1.8GHz, you should be fine. Some settings may need to be turned down. The point is frequency of CPUs is not comparable if the architecture of the CPUs isn't the same. It's the same thing on AMD's side of things and trying to compare AMD to Intel chips

What i really question is this "ultra epic graphics card"....if it's some intel integrated graphic chipset, then it's more like ultra epic graphic garbage. You will not be able to run the game.


Please post a dxdiag so we can see your PC specs:
Start - Run (if Vista, the search box acts like Run) - type dxdiag - hit Enter - "save all info" button - open txt file and copy/paste EVERYTHING here
