System Requirements (prediction)?

[boogie123]

does anyone know the system requirements yet? or can someone tell the possible system requirements? thanks!

[Andrew]

I don't recall them being mentioned as yet, but I'd imagine they'll be about the same as last year.

Here ya go. It can also predict whether ur PC can run the game if you enter ur PC basics in the options below the ratings

[Andrew]

I don't know about those being the minimum requirements, the processor in particular is way above last year's minimum specs (which you can see here). If they're the recommended requirements then I'd agree it's likely in the ballpark.

[boogie123]

thanks guys!

[RR]

Fellas, I need your opinion. With these spec's which settings could I run, without AA?

AMD Quad-Core 1.81 GHz
ATI Radeon HD 5770
4,00 GB RAM

thanks in advance and glad to be back.

[bowdown]

Yeah dude definitely. I have a HD 5670 Video card and I get 80-90 FPS with everything max and 2x AA.

Yours is one step higher level Card than mine.

As for the CPU...I would guesss yeah.

What specifically is your CPU name? Athlon x4? or Phenom x4?

but still with either of those u get max performance

[Andrew]

I wouldn't imagine you'd run into any issues with that rig.

[RR]

Sorry, the CPU model is a AMD Phenom X4 9150e

thanks a lot guys, much appreciated rescue!

[bowdown]

yeah you should get way more than enough FPS to max everything out with extra AA to go along with it.

Please, I need an advice too
I am gonna update my CPU just to play 2011/12 sports game (NBA 2K12, FIFA 12). Is it better buy a Quad Core with low GHz (like the "RR"'s Phenom, 1.8 GHz) or a Dual Core with 2.93 GHz/higher?

[Andrew]

I'd opt for Quad Core.

I think it depends of both.... I am not sure, but for example Core 2 Duo E7500 is better than that Phenom

@Douge_e: Wait for November. Bulldozer processor is coming next time. Just wait for the prize to be stabilized. Then buy what you like.

Buy:
an Mobo AM3+ (In case you want to upgrade next year. Bulldozer is 4,6,8 cores!)
4GB G.skill ram
AMD Phenom II (Choose. X2 is the cheapest and unlockable. But I'd suggest get a X4 955BE.)

if you'll be playing on 1280x720 resolution and not 1920x1080(?)

then get AMD 6790. a cheap one. Or 6850 for awesome vid card.

[RR]

hey fellas, just to say THANK YOU to all of you that help me choose the right computer specs.

2K12 configs at maximum, without any issues!

thanks again!

[Andrew]

Good to hear.
