Sys Req.

[SealDude]

I was looking on the PS web site and cant find any hint of the Requirments to play. Will this game work on a medicore system or will you have to have a uber gaming machine? Thanks a lot.

[diluted]

mediocre will work just fine i'm sure.

last i heard (def changed by now)

1 ghz
512 ram
at least geforce2 card(dunno mbs probably 64)
and THREE GIGS of hd room i dont think so but i heard it somewhere

[Fire_Monkey]

They're under the PSU FAQ. Not the official one so I wouldn't blame you.

[WNxUndeadFenix]

yes they have lowered the ram req for sure. not sure bout any others tho. but im positive the ram was lowered to 256.

[glsauron]

1 Ghz PIII
256MB RAM
GeForce 2 (32MB<=)
3.2GB HDD
Net Connection

Think thats basically it.

[Sputty]

56K specifically but if ytou're running under 28.8 you might as well kill yourself

[Saint]

Haha they lowered the RAM req? Since when? I have only been gone a month. Oh well I have 1024MB of RAM now. :D RAM is yummy and cheap.

[mr_luc]

I really wish they would have kept the old high-res models in there for people with the ability to run them . . . maybe for the expansion pack. *sigh*

[SpacemanSpiff]

Yeah, a graphics expansion would be great.... among other things.

[SealDude]

Hmmm 1ghz. Um anyone know how to overclock an AMD?

[Tricky]

If you want OC advice I suggest the forums on hardocp.com

[2coasts]

sealdude, you probably wont need to overclock it, as long as its close, i have a 900mhz AMD, but I should be fine because i have a ton more ram and a much better video card than are required...

[SealDude]

I got a 850 AMD DURON and 512 mb of ram so we will see.

[Agent]

Seal if you have some money you could get like a 1.7 gig CPU for not a lot (A lot less than a Radeon 9800), that is if your MB supports it.

[SealDude]

Ill shop around. Thanks.

[colinisinhere]

i have an AMD 2gig but only a geforce 2 32mb... i ahve my card, i cant run most games, Americas Army doesnt even ruin that well, *sigh

Dude check this out from Newegg.com (have to isntall yourself, but it'll kick that Durons A$$ to the S Pole...)

AMD Athlon 2100B - $88
Asus A7N8X Delux (GOOD sound, network onboard) - $143
Crucial PC2700 256MB (2 sticks) - $82
Sapphire Radeon 9500NP - 155

$468 + Tax (IF CA- total $501.06)

Thats a system you can take names with (OC to 2075Mhz and you have a proc that would be rated 2700-2800+ easy). That system will be able to run almsot anything for the next year (not Doom III at 16X12 but 8X6 with most setting probably)

Or if thats too much, save a couple of pennies and get the above, worth it.

to upgrade my processor i would have to replace my motherboard.. too much hassle when the game might run as is...

[TheGreatCarbini]

I just picked up this baby last week:

Athlon 2700+
Readon 9700 Pro
Gig O RAM

Bring on the planetside baby! I got a nice home for ya!

Which also brings me to a question: Any of the beta testers in here have readons? And are they working well with Planetside? I know more games are moving to ATI now, I was smiling when I picked up Raven Shield this week and found an ATI ad inside.:)

[PalpatineTDO]

I'm praying my comp will run PS. If it does'nt, I might as well go and buy another PC. I've already got 2, so I REALLY hope it'll work on one of them.

[Sputty]

Hamma has a 9700 pro
