The info on the specs was useful, time to get the ball rolling on my upgrades.

CCIP · 01-19-07, 02:24 PM

Are you kidding? I only have less than two months to get myself ready?

TDK1044 · 01-19-07, 02:39 PM

The date looks right. 03/13 in the US and 03/16 in the UK has been out there for some time. Very strange regarding the specs though. Mimimum 512MB of RAM? It was a minimum of 1GIG a few weeks ago. I guess the DEVS have been doing some optomizing over the last few weeks. we'll see.

Well, I'm good at 1.5 gigs of ram, but my poor little 2.0 processor is right on the line. Video I'm ok on. So some things I'm very good on, others are borderline.

Only if it´s a Pentium 4, a 2GHz AMD CPU or Intel Core 2 Duo is much more powerful than a P4 at the same clock speed.

Just in time for my birthday, just like SHIII. Happy birthday to me . . . .

Thanks for the heads-up!

Game devs should also start looking into us poor Core 2 DUO users. I play games that require more the my 1.86Ghz my procesor has to offer.

Otherwise I'm good to go! I guess that RAM shall again be the determining factor in how well the game will work.

I know, I'll ask my parents to give it to me for my birthday!

I think the speed of your video card is as important if not more important than how much RAM you have, as long as you meet the RAM minimum requirement. This game will require a decent video card in order to run well.

I would also urge caution regarding the stated RAM requirement on the Ubisoft website. With SH3, Ubisoft stated that the required RAM was 256MB and recommended was 512MB. Then about three weeks prior to the release, it changed to required RAM 512MB and recommended RAM 1GIG.

Sooner than I tought. Anyway, I'm eager to play it (and I'll be able to get it just before my birthday

).

There´s no such thing as a "poor Core 2 Duo user"!

Your 1.86GHz Core 2 Duo is faster than a 3.4 GHz Pentium D, which is based on a Pentium 4. When Ubi says that a 2GHz CPU is required they mean a Pentium 4 with 2GHz.

Awesome news. Sooner than I thought...........
