Can your computer run Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific?

Minimum requirements passed, recommended requirements failed. No surprise there.

Even Min failed on my PC, mainly due to the video card. But I have contacted home port for some $$$$$ so help will be on the way soon !

Yes, mine can most definately run SH4. Runs everything else too.

AMD X2 6000+
Asus M2N32 SLi N590
4GB PC6400 (DDR2 800)
Dual 8800GTXs in SLi
Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty
150GB 10K Raptor w/500GB Backup
Antec TX1050B Case w/850W Coolmax PSU
Windows Vista 32/64 Dual Boot

Yeah, but it is a drop dead gorgeous and uberfast system!!!

One of the fastest around.

Though I don't see any need to upgrade my X2 4200+ 4GB DDR2 6400
2 x WD Raptor 10K 36GB
ASUS M2N32SLI-Deluxe
ASUS GeForcce 7900GT TOP
2 x 250GB Seagate
Windows XP SP1 (no SP2 to me

!!)

So basically the same only yours is a lot more advanced.

Funny fact BTW, a friend of mine has:

AMD Athlon XP 3000+
2GB DDR 400 PC 3200
Ordinairy 120GB IDE 7200RPM
Leadtek GeForce FX5900 Ultra 256Mb

In other words, old system. But it runs like a charm.
Even passes reccomended test.

I guess I can pretty much be called poster boy for minimum specs.

AMD Athlon 2400+ (2 gig) at 266 FSB.
1 Gig of Corsair Value select PC 2100 DDR Ram at 266 FSB.
ATI Radeon 9600XT with 256 MB video ram. DX 9 compatable.
M7VIG Pro Motherboard with VIA onboard sound chip. AC 97 codec.

Windows XP SP2. No apps running in background with 17 processes running reserving 128 mb of Ram. I have virtual memory on a separate disk blocked at 3000 min & max. My box has enough fans to be used as a hovercraft. My power supply is an Antec true power 380 watt.

The game runs on 1027 x 768 at 75 hz. I have an old Viewsonic 17 inch p 70f.

In game, I use the default low setting adjusted a bit. I check 2 graphics boxes pertaining to ships and I have the ship damage turned up all the way.

Particle density is set one off the lowest.

At these settings, the game is playable. Looking thru the scope I get high teens to low 20s at max zoom. Zoomed out high 20s. The game jerks below 10 FPS during big explosions. I get the slow mouse when I am at the scope and it is on max zoom. It may be corrected by adding more memory. The event camera also hits the game hard. Have the event camera on while at the scope and it will go below 10. The sound works fine with hardware sound set to basic in dx diag.

One thing I noticed after I installed the game is the empty partition I installed it on became fragged big time. It might be because my partitions are fat 32 and not NTFS or maybe just the game installed funky.

Anyways: That’s my story and I am sticking to it!
