It will work but that is one of the worst polls I've ever seen! Both of those are more or less the same and you didn't include it will work well. Constructive critisism.

[Guni]

Sorry, i will do better next time. (i am new)
Thanks for your answer.

Hi Guni

Lol you should add a "Yess it will work" option to the poll because it will work. ive got a 6600 GT 256mb and it runs just fine

For higher end viewing performance, last I heard from Mark, you should use a 6900 or better. I recentkly purchased a 8500 GT OC with 512 DDR2 (not 3) and got a remarkable deal on it and I get TONS of great views from the game.

I have a GeForce 6200 will I know it's higher than the minimum, but is it still good? Also my processor is quite low I think only 2.4ghz and SS06 requires 3ghz, it did slow a little. Should I be right to run 2008 well?

[mark]

At home I run the game on a 1.2 Ghz PC in combination with a 6600 GT.
It runs quite slow, but I know this is a CPU problem and not a Graphics card problem. (Also because my monitor does not support resolutions lower than 1600x1200)

AriesDW: The game runs good on any 6000 series nVidia card. The remark I gave you about the 6900 card was based on the beta versions we were running back then. The final version has much better performance (we even lowered the minimum system requirements a few weeks ago)

Captain Kool. The game will run fine on your pc, however you probably can't put every graphics setting on it's highest setting.

Cheers mark!

I don't mind if some stuff looks a little low res.

But good work with 08 it looks good!

[adamano]

ive got everything running high, and its all great no problems excellent graphics with my 6600 GT

[OliverBryant]

well i got a geforce 7300 gs and have no problems with ship sim 2008
you can puchace one at www.pcworld.co.uk
hope this cleans things up

[Master Captain]

I have a GeForece 6200SE, Ship Sim 08 runs good on my computer, but like mark was saying i can't really go to the highest setting. KM

hi i used to have a problem with my water looking like a gridmodel and the performance was generally poor. but i fixed it by buying a geforce 8600gts and it works like a dream! i also bought 2 gigs more ram but i must say that the graphics card made all the difference

Hi Folks,

I run a 256MB NVIDIA FX5500 on my machine and  it works really well.

[lx585x]

can anyone tell me what is the grid size thingy in graphics menu in the game i keep wondering what it is but can't remember i know its an offtopic question but i don't want to start a new topic just for a small question as this 

[Tom91]

hi all,i ran a fx5500 same as dogman and the game worked okay (initially wouldnt even load but then updated drivers  and was okay) however upgraded to 7600gs and dont know of any piece of hardware that can make such a difference to your game perfomance as this does.(on a side note i now need to upgrade my p.s.u at some point because it isnt powerful enough to get the most out the new graphics card!
