Eurogamer.net has reported that Gabe Newell, head honcho at Valve has finally released the specs for the highly anticipated HL2.
The minimum spec would be a 1.2GHz powered PC with 256MB RAM, Win 98/ME/2000/XP and a DirectX 7 compatible graphics card.
But for those who want to see the game running in all its glory, be prepared to spec up to around a 2.4 GHz machine, with 512MB RAM, Windows 2000/XP and a DirectX 9 capable graphics card.
Looks like it's time for many of us to save for an upgrade.

at the end of the day most games are playable at 30-50fps, granted 100fps may give an advatage in cs:s but for HL2 its not worth worrying over. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

If you can't get decent fps with those GFX cards and a average cpu; either blame the developers or you're a complete nobend who can't configure his pc. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
