Obviously some upgrading required but my problem.... where do I start?
New GPU, CPU or RAM?

P.S I can run Tribes Ascend, Mass Effect 3 and Arma II OA fine on medium... not sure how though.

I suggest just start saving up for a new computer. I don't really see your system as being worthwhile upgrading right now. If C2D start to perform better come launch maybe a new GPU will help otherwise you are just wasting your money imo.

I thought so but I wasn't sure how bad it was. Thanks

Yay I'm going to start building my first computer now X). Well I'm going to start saving anyway.

Put the rendering quality to .85 and see if that makes any difference. Set the sound quality lower as that frees up CPU power. There seems to be some issues with Phenom II CPUs at the moment. Make sure your virus scanner is disabled as well.

Depends on your budget. I would not go below a 560 Ti for this game however.

Not going to run. CPU is too weak, GPU same issue.

I have a pentium dual-core E6700 @ 3.2GHz with a GeForce 460 GTX 768MB, I can play the beta pretty decently on medium. Gets a little janky in big fights. I played at 1280x1024.

I just put in an order at newegg for an i3 2120 sandy bridge and a 1GB GeForce GTX 560 TI... do you think that will bump me into the "High" settings at 1280x1024?

The textures in this game look like absolute dogshit on medium and below.

I can run everything on max, and have yet to really experience any sort of lag or frame-rate drop (running a steady 60-70, sometimes an occasional drop to high 50s in large battles); this doesn't really make sense considering there are people on this thread with better builds but still struggling, I don't really understand these optimization issues.

i5 3750 @ 3.4ghz
Asus P8 Z77 v Pro
Corsair 8gb 1600
128gb Sandisk SSD
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
AMD HD Radeon 6950 2gb

I'd guess a mix of med/high. Just kind of depends.

(Just to make sure: You do know that i3 won't fit in your current motherboard, right?)

Haha, yeah. New RAM too. I just didn't want to bore you with superfluous details

Hi there,
just wondering if my (rather oldish) PC can run it with, well, playable framerate.

Intel Core2 Duo E8200 2,66GHz
GeForce 250GTS
Kingston DDR2 2x 1GB 800MHz
Abit IP35-E
Be-quiet Straight Power BQT E5-450W

If not then what upgrades would you recommend?

Decent settings. I just haven't seen many using the 650M.

Maybe playable on the lowest settings. Your call if that is what you want to experience.
