Starcraft 2 System Requirements

I know I will. I mean my current one will probably do but I want to be able to turn all the effects on max so i can enjoy it properly. But blizzard games have always ran well on slower machines.

How many of you need an upgrade to play, or will you just keep your current one and pray it runs faster than 10fps ?

 

My computer is pretty good already. It's a core 2 duo 3ghz with 2 gig ram and 8800gts so it will run the game fine! I upgraded recently but now I have seriously now money left man arrghhhh! :'(

 

I´ll definitively need a new rig; still running a P4 HT 3.0Mhz w/ 2GIgs on 800Mhz and a 7800 GT gfx; plays Comand & conquer tiberium wars no prob but I don't think it will be enough to play StarCraft 2 at max.; and if it ain't at max, it's just not worth it.

 

I think, if you got a chunky processor, then all you have to think about is the RAM and Video Card. as for me,
I got 1.5 G RAm, do you guys think that is enough? , My video card is as old as hell, I think I bought at year 2002, man I gotta upgrade.

It does perform C&C generals ZH very well.

 

Your ram sounds plenty. 1.5gig is enough! But yeah, the 2002 and graphics card probably needs to get upgraded. and if you upgrade into pcie card, then you need a new mobo, and you might as well then get anew cpu and ... whole new rig ;D

That's computers for ya! Cpu's are really cheap. I bought the e4300 not too long ago and overclocked it to 3.2ghz. it's running beautifully! Peter I have 8800gts too now ;D

 

No way I'm gonna need a new computer, I just got this baby a few months ago. It runs like a charm.

 

I absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, know I will need a new one.

Dell laptop, 2005
512Mb of RAM
18 gig hard drive >_<
I don't even know the other stuff, but it's crappy.

I can play SC1 and BW just fine, and I have a good net connection....But that 512 RAM just makes me hurt inside.

 

I'm wishing that SC2 won't be picky on computer OS. And I think my pc can handle SC2, if I buy a decent video card and additional RAM.
Is there any info on SC2 hardware/software requirements yet?

 

Do you think SC2 Will take up alot like WoW, or like 2 times as much as warcraft III?

 

Do you mean CPU? I don't know what cmp is.

But blizzard always make their games not too high requirements. They want as many people to play it as possible.

But judging from the graphics, it looks like it would be pretty intensive

 

Yeh, i meant CPU, i said CMP for COMP or Computer.

 

I hope I won't we only got this laptop back in October!

 

I dont need a new computer.

 

Who needs graghics when you got game play? If it werent for graghics, everyone would play all kiinds of games. But good graghics is alsome though, and my computer can handle big games, so i will not complain!

 

I just recently bought an HP pretty high-end desktop when I moved here, so I really don't think that a new computer will be necessary.

How many of you wish that Blizz will include DX10 features in Sc2? I don't mean included as the standard, but things that can be scaled down for use with DX9.

 

I dont think so all I needz is fer my new graphics card to work properly

 

I have Windows Vista,
will that be enough? ???

 

Windows Vista will probably have it work even slower than a slow comp with XP . Kidding, they'll improve Vista's performance by the time Sc2 will be released.

 

I have DirectX 9 on my computer, and I still use the Windows XP operating system. I am sure Blizzard would not make SC 2 just for Vista, because they would have a loss in profits. Microsoft made Halo 2 PC for Vista only to get you to buy Vista, because they are the company which owns Vista, but Blizzard, since they do not own Vista, would have it to where those with XP and Vista will be able to play.

 

Don't forget about Macs, Blixxard always remember the PC's worthy adversary. I think that any game released for Macs as well undoubtedly works well on Xp.

PS - I have Xp too, you know...
