System requirements (real ones) for SH3

Asem · 05-10-06, 03:33 AM

Hi all,

Forgive the total n00b question, but I'm keen as mustard to have a go at Silent Hunter III, and I need to know if my work laptop (yes, laptop -- I know it's nuts) will run it.

Fact is I can't justify building a machine for one game (well, I might but she who holds the bank accounts won't!) so I'd have to play it on my work computer. This is the first game I've seen in a l-o-o-n-g time that I'm desperate to play, so I thought who better to ask than the good folks at subsim?

Sure, IGN etc give the system requirements but we all know that what's printed on the box often won't cut it, so I need to know the real deal.

I've posted two links to screenshots of what I think is the relevant info. In your esteemed opinions, will my laptop run this beasty?

Many thanks all -- I hope I'm not contravening any forum rules posting this in here (I looked in the FAQ and it seemed ok).

Cheers, Asem.
