Sure. It's actually not a great gaming rig par se. Not my choice as my wife bought it when I was over in England. Still it's not so bad I guess.
I'm not real happy with the processor but it seems to get the job done. Our other computer at home is actually better but that's not a game computer unfortunately, just one we use for my wife's photography business. I would love to see it run on that machine!
Pentium D 2.80GHz (Two processors)
1022MB Ram
250GB hard drive
I will probably double the ram soon too.
The dual core is interesting but as far as I understand it nothing really takes advantage of that capability yet. I would have preferred a much faster processor but the salesman convinced my wife that this would be good for photography use. (Sure, but what about gaming????)
After posting last night I did suffer a little slowdown on the game, especially with lot's going on on screen, and had to reduce the sliders slightly and tried knocking the resolution down a little too. The graphics still look fantastic however.
To be honest I've even played this game on my laptop at 800 by 600 with low settings and is still a treat to play. It's just such a good game.
