Will your desktop/laptop run PS2? V2 ***Ask here***


Wondering if your computer will run PS2? Well this thread is here to help you figure this out.

Current Minimum System Requirements
OS: Windows XP
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 or higher / AMD Phenom II X2 or higher
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Hard Drive: 15 GB free
Video Memory: 256 MB RAM
Video Card: nVidia GeForce 8600 series or higher / AMD or ATI 4850 series or higher
Sound Card: DirectX compatible

Current Recommended System
OS: Windows 7
Processor: Intel i5 processor or higher / AMD Phenom II X6 or higher
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Hard Drive: 15 GB free
Video Memory: 1,024 MB RAM
Video Card: nVidia GeForce 500 series or higher / AMD HD 6870 or higher
Sound Card: DirectX compatible
Above is the current minimum and recommended system requirements. This is open to change bare in mind come launch. If you still are not sure feel free to ask in this thread.

Two core processors are not enjoyable playing this game currently. People can play the game, but its on the lower settings with low FPS. Don't have a expectation that despite having a more recent video card will save you from bad FPS. This game is highly CPU bound, so even having a GTX 680 on your old C2D won't help you at all. Even some C2Q and Phenom II X4s are having issues with this game.

In my opinion the best route to get the proper performance in this game is to get a cheap i5 quad core. Like the i5 2300 to i5 34X0 series. Anything above a 7770 or GTX 460 GPU with one of those CPUs will give you a great playing experience. RAM is cheap right now and the game can be a memory hog, so you may run into issues running 4GB. If you have a DDR3 mobo grab 8GB of ram for $30 and that should help relieve some potential issues.
