I bought my dual core with the intention of slapping a quad in it down the road, so this might be the time.

I hope my GTX 275 and 2.4 GHz quad won't fail me . So far I've played all games on max settings (with no AA). I plan on playing it on 1920x1200. By the way, who plays games at 1280*1024?!

By the way, since this is a game spec thread I'd like to ask something. In SH3 and SH4 all of the 2D graphics were tailored for a 1024x768 resolution. This made some items look bad when stretched to 1920x1200 (such as the periscope backgrounds) and I guess it even forced the devs to disable scaling for most of the items, thus making them very small at high rez. Will the minimum texture resolution in SH5 be for 1280x1024? Or will the textures and 2d graphics have multiple resolutions? And if so, will they give us a simple tool to make modding the interface simpler (I mean the graphics files)?

I can't imagine life without a 24 inch screen. The next screen I'll buy will be a 30 inch Led TV. Great image, superb contrast and smoothed image even at low fps... My folks have one but don't want to share

You should try 1280 x 960 just once... makes a big difference on the plotting table to me. (I was originally at 1024 x 768)
