The RAM and video card are good but you are a little lacking in CPU power. It will run, but will it be playable? I think so. Then again, CPU power doesn't make much of a difference. I have 1,800 GhZ, GF3, cable, and 256 RAM. It ran like crap, especially when they got close. A 512 stick fixed everything. It runs MUCH better now. Seeing as though you have more than 256, it will probably play well.
And BTW, don't bump :nono:.

You should be able to run it, just not at super high detail...
Also, there's nothing wrong with bumping as long as it's not overdone. :)

hmmm...my friend had beta and he ran it at a playable level with a 550 Pentium 3 (not sure other sepcs, know it has a decent vid card and ram tho) and has played many other games that require much higher specs successfully. It is essentially a miracle PC.
P.S.: this computer is apparently on sale for $10,000. I declined the offer, but that doesn't mean you need to;)

PS is really not the CPU intensive. I've seen quite a few ppl with decked out AMD 1ghz systems play PS at extremely good frames but at med to low detail. If you could bump the ram up to 768 to 1024 you would be in pretty decent shape.

well i have a 850 p3, its not a bad computer, im getting win xp in the next week,
problem is im not sure what amount of ram my mobo will hold,
i would imagine i can get at lesat 512, but i am hopping to get 2 stick s of 512, then i will prob be able to run it, i also have a so so card, its a 64mb mx series gf4 :S
lol think it wil run? i was gonna do a full upgrade of CPU but if its not cpu oriented, then probably no need, till end of summer at lesat

I do not think so. I have a P3 996 Mhz processor. It's in 90% of the game tied up all the time.
