Title: Would my computer work with SS08?
Post by: 9x19sig on July 09, 2007, 05:05:32
Hello all, just trying to find out if my computer will work with SS08, and also I am trying to find out where I can purchase this game in the United States.

AMD x2 4400+
2 gig RAM
ATI 1300pro video card

This is a brand new computer so it should work but I am just trying to make sure, thanks.

Yes your Computer Spec is more than fine to work with SS08 :)

I appreciate the quick response, I wasn't sure how great my video card is. Would the game actually look decent or am I more towards the lower end of the spectrum for system requirements?

Oh, where do I buy this game? I've been waiting to buy this game for a while now and I'm not sure if people in the United States can buy it yet.

Not sure about the ATI card (I use nVidia), but the rest is fine ;)

Hi.

I too am wondering if my computer's hardware will work with this. I get confused by the system requirements thing, so I'm just looking for a more direct answer. Now, at the moment, my computer is downgraded until I get some new replacement parts. But this is most likely what it will be when it's fixed...

ATHLON64 3800+ AM2 2.4 Ghz processor

ATI Radeon x1600 pro - 512mb video card

1gb RAM

get a mac, you won't have to worry about specifications for at least 5 years. seriously.....

you can always install windows on it if you desperately need windows like for SS (thats what i did, i have vista on my mac)

Should be fine if you are running Windows XP, if you are running Vista, you will need to upgrade the RAM to 2gb :)

I agree. 2Gb would be nice, but it's not necessary.
