hi there guys i think that Urbwolf has the best machine for now, and if you bought it when the parts came out at the end of last year then you made the right choice but if you bought the parts now you lose big time because your rig will be outdated quickly because in the 1q of next year there will be new gen of gpu and cpu, ddr3 will become standard and ddr 2 prices will drop the allready started dropping, usb 3.0, pci express 2.0, dx10.1 not supported by nvidia8xxx series and ati 2xxx series (the will support it but not fully), great new motherboards and etc. I think we should wait another year to buy the ultimate rig because now things are going crazy its just like when the win xp came out it the hardware went through the roof, by the way you cant really feel any new game now because if you want to really fell the game and all it has to offer you need to have a rig that will come out in the next 1/2 years so you can play the game at the max
anyway to play stranglehold all you need is just more ram 2 gigs that is this are my outdated specs. of my machine and i can run crysis with no problems but everything at low
cpu amd atlon xp 2600+
gpu sapphire x1550 256ddr2 agp
mb abit nf7
memory 2 gig kingstone ddr 400
psu gembird 450

any way this is the way i think things are right now this is just my opinion feel free to comment

AWESOME GAME!!

I couldn’t play this game at first because I only had 1GB of RAM. I recently upgraded to 2GB Crucial DDR2 and it runs fine!

My hardware:

Toshiba P100-188 Laptop
Core 2 Duo @ 1.8Ghz, 1.8Ghz
2GB Crucial DDR2 PC-4200
GeForce Go 7600, 256MB

Average FPS: 24

Even at those frames, the game is perfectly playable!

(Just though i’d mention, with the memory upgrade I now am able to run DOOM 3 at Ultra High settings with everything on and no problems! Same goes for Battlefield 2. Both run at 1024*768, setting on max, 2x antialising. Bioshock runs great on medium at 800*600)

I’ve had no concerns running it at 1650×1080, settings are maxed,however I have yet to install on another rig, as far as demmanding 15 g’s of HHD that’s not unreasonable, as it was said consider the source, with each new title released the commitment for space needed grows, I supose we’re just keeping up with the Jones’s

you know i dont think the system requirements are all that much considering how far gaming has taken us in the last year. if you guys think that these rewuirements are high forget crisis and wait till assasins creed comes out. and it mentions dual core not core2 so its the first gen dual core processors that you need not the core 2 duo. AND THE 15 GB comes from all the short movies and that are played in the game. What would you expect from a game that was produced with John Woo.

Haha, I love how many kids automatically think that dual-core = Intel, especially since even a cursory glance at the site reveals that they’re flaunting the AMD/ATi branding.

I think people need to get it in their heads that dual-cored and quad cored processors have been MAINSTREAM for a few years now- I don’t know that single cores are even sold at retail anymore. If you know how to tweak (and there’s no reason you shouldn’t; it’s not hard) then the minimum spec doesn’t really mean anything, and if you don’t you’re about guaranteed to get a computer capable of running it from a processing and memory standpoint if you simply pick up the deal-of-the-day at any largish online retailer. A 7900GS is only $150 or so- no big deal for a machine that (should, unless you’re incompetent) last you a good five years at least.

You don’t need a system that good. I downloaded the demo and it played fine with only a few minor stutters (only one playing through the hole demo)

My system is

amd athlon xp 2600+
768 Mb DDR memory
x1650pro

But come on, think about it. Haven’t anyone been seing any gameplay movies? Think about the distructible environment for just a start If you get that to run on a single core you would have to remove the environment completly, the cpu would burn ffs! And here is memory also a importat thing. Okey, the 15gb free diskspace sounds a little overkill. 6-8 would be accepteble, so I hope its a gameplay time of around 50h Minimum is a little weard, but recommenden wouldn’t surprise me at all.

Those aren’t the proper requirements for Crysis. Crysis supports SM2.
