Well, should just about work on my system... just. I'm pretty much minimum on everything (although I hate the way it says 256MB graphics... my 9550 had 256MB!).

Mines ready, but I doubt I'll get it.
Like ARTT I tend to like strat sims. SupCom FTW !!
GalCiv II is fun too.

I will probably get Hellgate: London though.

I wonder if single player is going to be fun because multiplayer is not that big of a deal.

If the biggest single player PC game awaited to be launched this year does not have good single player gameplay....call me a fool. ;) Of course the single player will be fun.

i love the mp i thinks its way better than any other fps just because of all the options you have as far as how you want to play and the tatics you have to chose from are endless not to mention the mp beta is only 1 map of 1 game mode which im sure there will be more of both,

the only problem i have system wise is the draw distance seems to kill my card if im in indoor area or an area where i don't have full view of the map i get like 70 fps but when i am in an area with a really long draw distance it drops to like 30 which should be fixed by the time the game is released cause there still working allot on the shaders

My setup runs flawlessly in the MP beta at 1280*1024 with medium settings. I can even afford to add some AA.

I see myself almost maxing the graphics with my 8800gts @ 1680x1050..

I may put this card up for sale soon though just for a change.. Im not fond of the green pbc and I got the card for a good price anyway, so I wont be losing out on much money if any.

Im upgrading, will see how my cpu does on water and a new mobo, its not very big on overclocking atm.. stock volts give me almost 3.3Ghz and 60-61c on load lol... so I may be getting a quad-core :D

yeah I'lll be ready for Crysis when its released.
