Do you notice that SH5 will be operating on the same engine as the SH4? This means that the developers will not used DX11+ computer graphics. This is good news, because UBI must create better playablity and allow to use SH5 on slower machines (great!)...

at about the same time or right before it


they never said anything about making any changes so this is all we have to go on as the last word about it straight from them but i'll add a note of caution to the thread.


NOTE: this info is all we have to go on as the last word about the game specs straight from the devs but there is no way to be certain they might change this without telling us.

Default i7 specs

Hello,

I have a i7 920 Do overclocked to 3.2Ghz 6 GB Ram and GTX275. I feel that this would be fine. What do others think?

Do you think that an ATI 4650 1Gb will do fine?
And what about the X1950GT 512Mb? Thats the card i have on my desktop computer.

guys, just look at the specs listed

if your hardware is equal to it or newer than whats listed then you should be fine


no one will ever know for sure exactly what you "have to have" untill the game comes out anyway

Meh, trying to get it to run in 256Mb graphics? That's 4-5 year old technology FFS!

Bite the bullet....512Mb should be stretching to play on basic settings.

As an aside: As far as I know, if you don't have a 64-bit OS, there's no point in having more than 4Gb of RAM as the OS is limited to using about 2.9Gb. Even with 64-bit, there's no performance boost in going over 6Gb in 99.99% of cases. It's a way to save money, and that money is better spent on a higher graphics card. Similarly, high-end quad cores without high-end graphics cards (by which i mean 2 in SLI or XFire, or a dual chip single card) is a waste of money....you'll get bottlenecks in the video. People wanting to look at specs and builds etc can do a lot worse than spending a few hours in www.tomshardware.com

Cheers

Hi-end graphic is not central point of game, especially in simulation game.
Take a look at the gaming market: almost all games offer advanced graphics ... but what of that, since 99% of the game is weak? After a week of playing this game is in the trash, and people have the impression that the money wasted. The center point of game is playablity and the developers forget about it.

Buy our hi-end graphical game: you need hi-end processor, hi-end OS, hi-end graphic card and your life will be better...

I knew that I had to replace my old pc when SH 5 comes out. She'll be towed out and sunk as an artificial reef. But I'm going to wait until the final game specs come out before I buy a replacement.

A 3.0 GHz processor is stretching it a bit. If that is indeed the bar-none medium. Most computers still run on 2.4 to 2.8 GHz processors; 3.0 ones are almost always the incredibly expensive ones which have been overclocked- otherwise they're just incredibly expensive quad cores lol.
