Weaker than Geforce 8600 I think, in other words not very good.

Thanks DoomLordis,

I will be interested to hear how it runs as I too have a borderline system: 1.8 Gig Core2Duo Processor, Nvidia 8500GT Card and 2 Gig DDR2 ram. SH4 runs about 28FPS with Environment and Post-processing filters. Forget about volumetric fog though.

Bad news , THE SEA IS MISSING! the game runs smooth but there are no textures for the sea or land, all ships and dock / buildings are there and the sub inside is intact just no sea!

Have you got the latest Nvidia driver? One came out very recently. If you have, maybe try installing the old driver.

Latest ATI drivers installed, am trying a reinstall of game to the x86 program files location as it stuck the game in the root!

SH4 works perfectly?

Sorry for your troubles. I'm sure you'll resolve it by the end of the day.Try rolling back the card drivers. Sometimes the newer ones don't work as good. SH5 shares alot of build with SH3.

What video card do you have ? (GPU & Video ram).
Check it versus the minimum required specs ( + the list of supported video cards).
