That's a good question, because i'm looking at buying a new computer here in the next month. What will the system requirments be?

[Kevman]

I'll post my specs, just so it's out there;

AMD Athlon 2600+
1024 mB of ram
Ge force 8600 Over-clocked video card
120 Gb hard drive

Id definatly go with the Core 2 Duo. I have both intel and amd gaming machines, and love my core 2. AMD makes a good product, dont get me wrong, but from the small specs you gave the intel is what Id choose.

However, I personally stay away from laptops. Desktops you can upgrade for a long long time, parts are easy and cheaper to find and will always put the smack down on a laptop.

The AMD system is the better system in this case. If they are going with the older engine, then obviously it is the better choice since the 6150 > 945G.

The only way the AMD system would be slower in this case would be if the game turns out to be CPU bound.

If either of those laptops are able to play the game, then the one with the 6150 will be able to play it better.

You have to realize there is no beta, so unless they tell you the projected specs, any suggestions for system specs at this time are just speculation.

Most low-end laptops make poor gaming machines because of their cheap integrated graphics cards, not to mention low quality sound. Although the first two computers listed could probably run the game, each one has a weak area, and neither could perform great with the graphics settings turned up. The third computer is quite outdated and it certainly would not even run the game. I replace my computers more often than most people do, but I usually like to be able to max out whatever game I am playing. It really depends on how important quality is to your gaming experience.

Right now I'm using the laptop I bought in 2006:

amd turion 2.2ghz
2gb ram
geforce go7900 256mb x2
hitachi travelstar 7k200 x2

Been a good gaming rig up until now, but newer games are starting to make it sweat, will probably have to replace it later this year.

well im thinking of buying a new desktop machine anyways so if my laptop dont play the game i deffinitly am buying a new computer lol

[Mark112887]

Building my quad core system was actually very cheap, cost about $368. That was for the motherboard processor and memory I just reused my other stuff

[Nismo240]

My desktop
Pentium 4 3Ghz
1gb ram
GeForce 128mb graphics card
70gb hard drive

It's like 4 years old so it was really nice when i got it. I'm thinking of getting another gig of ram will that make much of a difference?

Specs:
Intel Dual-core E6550 2.33ghz
A-data 2x1gig dual channel
Nvidia 8600gts Pci-16x
Gigabyte n650-sli-ds4 motherboard

Anything around these specs should play it fine.

not like this is gonna be heavy like crysis lol

[Allegedman]

Im sure once some internal testing gets done they can post some approximate specs for this game then do open beta.

[Biohazard]

these are my specs:
P4 3.0Ghz on an ECS Elitegroup PA1 MVP extreme Mobo, crossfire ready
1 gig DDR2 ram, gonna get more
1 Radeon x1800xt 256mb vid card
1 TB HDD space
500w Ultra PSU
