Well, I've the game running on AMD Athlon 64 with a speed of 2.5GHz . Which run rather smoothly ... Of course a good video card does play an important part . I try running the game on Geforce FX5700 . Its lousy .... poor image and suffer a dip in frame rate . I upgrade my video card and increase my ram to 1GB . Everything run well and great. For sure this games is hungry for power ......

Well, I would recommend Diablo , Command & Conquer, GTA , Fable , Freelancer ,Red Alert...etc Just to name some. Current new release games mostly require and Average plus system to run. Which I think some upgrade is still necessary. I'm running with AMD3500+ 64Bit with 1GB ram and Sapphire ATI 1600XT card . Which I can say work pretty well on games like Oblivion , Spellforce , prey , Civ 4 ,Guild Wars ,Dreamfall , Battlefield etc ... on resolution 1027x768 . But games like Hitman : Blood Money it suffer a slight slow in frame rate .
