I actually tried running it on an FX5200,heh.(Well...when I ordered it they were still claiming the game would work with the FX series...so I took a chance).

Funny thing was that I could sort of play the missions...took patience though,but When starting a campaign I never made it out of the dock...framerate was like 1/3 FPS...hahaha.

I'm not disappointed though. I knew my rig probably wouldn't be able to handle the game. I have no plans on upgrading this pc though...no PCIX slots...a 250w power supply...and nearly 4 years old. What amazes me is how well it runs games like MT2W and WoW...so far I've only had trouble with NWN2 and SH4. (Funny how those two both use securrom).

I do intend on buying a new pc this summer...probably dual-core with 2 gigs of RAM and with at least an Nividia 7100 card. IF my financial situation stabilizes...blah.
