Well I'd say the standard is an Athlon 64 3000+ with 1 Gig of RAM and a GeForce 6800GT 256Mb :D

Why does it say ATI 9700 and GF3? A 9700 is WAY better than a GF3.

I guess I gotta replace my 9600XT. :(

If the game starts with "The way it's meant to be played" you'll know why. I've got a 9600XT as well and wondered the same thing. I can only assume it'll be driver *cough*developer*cough* support.

How does mine measure up?

Post by chiQ »

I've got a GeForce Go 6800. I'm so out of touch with hardware I have no idea how that measures up to desktop cards. It runs HL2 okay... :shrug:

Ehh, that's minimum?
Guess the old Radeon 9800 won't really cut it anymore. I guess my AthlonXP 2800+ is enough and I have 1 gb of memory, but the videocard.... hmm...

where did you get those specs? I can't really believe they would put a Radeon 9700 as minimum together with a Geforce3... a 9700 is much faster. Are you sure it shoudn't be a Radeon 9200?

Those are. That list actually comes from the quake4game.com site (under game info, at the bottom of the entire text). The odd thing is that in the list of supported videocards they indeed do list the Radeon 9700 and GeForce 3 as slowest cards from ATI and nVidia respectively.

which is why I believe it to be a typo, because a Geforce3 is not even in the same league as a Radeon 9700.

Doesn't it seem strange that an X300 makes the list and not a 9600? How can you even compare a GF3 and a 9600?

If I'm pissed off at anything it's how you can even spell you're.
