im P4 3.4 ghz, 2gb ram, and nvidia 8500GT, windows xp. How would it run on medium/ high settings? please reply

@ savanta your CPU is brilliant but you might have to upgrade your video card as your video card isn't a good card as my old pc used to have that... upgrade it to another cheaper better card and you'll have better performance... hope this helps

WOW!!
I got:
IntelCore duo 2.66Ghz
Nvidia geforce8500GT 256mbit
2GIGABIT RAM
Vista 32 home premium

My framerate is very bad on high settings altough i have way pased the "recommended system requirements" I have all new drivers up to June 2008 and overclocked my computer.
My framerate is stil bad!!!!!
Can anybody hellp ME PLEASE???????!!!!!!??????!!!!!!

i do hope gamespot start to put the nvidia 9000 series and radeon 3000 series in these tests i'm getting quite annoyed trying to figure our were my 9800gtx is fitting (and yes i am aware most of the tests were made before they came out but would like to see it in the future)

what about my cpu:
intel celerion 3.0ghz
ati radeon x300 256 mb
memory 800mb

Just get a core 2 duo , 8800Gt gfx and 4gb ram. evrything will look fine.

Hey subz3ro what type of cpu u got there cuz i got a PENTIUM DUAL-CORE e2180 1.8GHZ
which is overclocked to 3.1GHZ Crazy!!!! 680i board 2GB ram 80GB and a lame 7300LE > and i manage too play it at 800x600 At med stings and no lag. yay

This game runs great on recent computers. Unreal Engine 3 is well made for good computers, which is what it is aimed towards.

Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 + 2x1GB Kingston DDR2 PC6400 + Forsa GeForce 8600GT (256 Mb)
Windows XP + UT3 1024x768 High Quality ~100 fps
I love optimization of Unreal Engine. Don't tell my that Crysis has better graphics - if UE had such terrible system requirements, we could see much better graphics that Crysis. Also, don't forget about crossplatform feature of UE. It was used even on PSP.

("how will dual 8500 gt's with 1 gb each handle it though? ") beast, sorry bud, but there's no such videocard. a GT suffix card doesn't have a gig of ram. 2 together doesn't even have a gig! a GT has 256 mb. i'm currently running duel 8600 GT's in SLI mode on an ASUS mobo. if you have 2 GTX's then you have a gig of video ram combined. but, no, sorry. GT's don't. hehehe

"Man Unreal's game engine never seizes to amaze me..........They optimized it so even a normal computer can play this game fast with really good settings...All the other games you need beefy requirements to get good graphics and good performance.... Companies should really take after unreal.........."

I highly agree with you on that d-DanGerous, even with my modest setup and a self over-clocked AMD X2 3800+ and XFX 7600GT I currently am able to play UT2004 at max visuals. This is because also I built my rig from the ground up and didn't wimp out and buy a "ready-out-the-box" system. This game was also meant for the PC as all the previous Unreal titles were made for... you will only rob clarity if you play it on any console.

Shees, i got a 7600GT and UT3 keeps on freezing!!! cheap dual cre 1.86ghz

how will dual 8500 gt's with 1 gb each handle it though?

AMD X2 6000+ , 2048mb DDR800 , XFX GeForce 8800GTX , Win XP SP2

All details on highest with resolution on 1280x1024 runs VERY smoothly.

I just ordered a new computer from ibuypower.com ande i'm wondering how well it will run this game. i've got an amd 642x 6000+ 3.0 ghz processor and 2 gb RAM with two GeForce 8500+ 1GB video cards. i doubt i can play on high settings but can i do ok with medium?

u.t.3. requires a fast and great video card.

Jocarl you should be able 2 run on max .. but it depends on your resulution..
zyox a 4600+ is alright to play ut3

Check out www.systemrequirements.com

this site will analyze your system and tell you whether or not you can run stuff.

Can the game run at maximum settings at this specs
Pentium Dual-Core E2140@1.60GHz GeForce 8600GT 1.5GB of RAM

I have an AMD Athlon 64 4600+ X2 (4.6GHz). Is it enough to play UT3?

I'm with an Intel Pentium 4 3.06 GHz 2 CPUs - GeForce 8600 GTS 512 Mb RAM - 2G RAM - Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2

I'm probably gonna purchase a new CPU but i want to know how much fps i could get on 1280x1024 resolution with my actual settings with High/Very High settings.

wow im pleased to see it will run well on my new laptop. This is very usefull information . Now im definatly going to get this game.

I played UT3 on a AMD 3500+ @2.42Ghz - 1Ghz Corsair VS Memory - MSI Geforce 7800GTX not overclocked - Max detail @ 1152 x 720 = 40ish steady FPS for anyone whos looking to play the game with a similar spec.

AMD 1.8ghz, ATI Radeon Pro 9250, 512mb RAM, Windows XP SP2
Im guessing the system performance will definately be negative XD
This is why im getting the XBox360 version instead.

will my M1530 XPS laptop 4Gb ram, T7500 2.2ghz, Geforce 8600M GT 256mb run this game all maxed out 1600 1200 smoothly?

great

Oh man!! This looks embarrasingly primitive in comparison to Crysis!! Look at the framerates, just look at them!!!!!

Man this makes me mad I'm A Xbox 360 fan and when I hear that ps3 has a game made by the makers of Gears of War that makes me mad. (opionion)

lol the only thing my 6 year old computer meets is the minimum 512MB RAM requirement. hahahaha I got owned. :'(

this is so cool !

I have a Intel core2 x6800 2gb corsair ram running at 800mhz Nvidia 8600gt and i still have alot lag on my computer at 1280x1024 that my monitor max resolution

I had a bfg geforce 6200 pci card in my old rig before I upgraded. Its pointless to try to run it on medium settings (2 i take it?), even so it didnt matter since theres no way the card could render the full pixel size. But it DOES run, even says so on the box under minimum system requirements.

On a happier note, Im Pentium D 3.0ghz, 2 gigs of ram (ddr2 667) and xfx geforce 8500gt, game runs max settings, 1360 x 768 at approx 20-40fps

"I play this game with a Nvidia 6200 and I can run it at medium graphics but my computer freezes up during the intro vid of the campaign. Can someone possibly help me??!!"
It's because your VGA card is too weak. The game required at least geforce 6800 with 256Mb
You should upgrade your system to play this game. I'm using P4 3.2Ghz, 2x1Gb ram, and the sapphire x1950pro 512Mb DDR3 AGP8x to play this game at high settings. It's amazing.

this game is amazing

crazy.. the newest nvidia drivers are forceware 163.92 or something but there is a different beta driver that specific to ut3 and the versions number is 169.28 and you can get it at nzone .com .. or just type forceware beta driver 169.28 in your browser to find it elsewhere.

@Sammojo, I tried the new drivers but it seems to have made little impact. Think it may be Vista slowing the system down ?

@crazyfullhouse, read what eric7233 said, do you have the newest NVidia drivers?

I am having a hard time getting the game to run smooth on my laptop, T7300@2.0Ghz Duo, 2GB ram and 8600GT video card, any ideas how to speed it up please ?????

Hey I am wondering if there was something wrong with the demo. It completely crashed my PC. I have a pentium 4 2.4ghz, 1GB DDR1 Ram, and a 7600GS and when I tried to play the demo my screen went black and the computer stopped working. Does the demo version do this, and if so would it happen in the full game?

I am curious,with the ps3 version of this game,what level from 1 to 5 would the graphics be set at on the Image Comparison page,surely it wouldn't be on the lowest detail 1,I am thinking it might be level 3 or 4.

Wow.. my problems have just been solved.. I downloaded the forceware beta driver 169.28 and i tripled my resolution and upped all the settigns and get no more crashes.. any who are having crashes or forced to use low settings i highly recommend downloading that driver.. its an absolute miracle . i was just about to throw in the towel on this game cus my computer sucks but that driver made the game very playable.

I have a AGP system ( I know it's old ) ^_^ :
-VGA sapphire x1950pro AGP 512 Mb
-CPU intel P4 3.2Ghz
-Ram 2gb (2*1gb kingmax)
Can I play this game at high setting??

copkill your specs dont make anyone jealous, as apart from the sli'd gtx's theres nothing too special there. in fact you should be jealous of everyone else, as the dont need to post that kind of thing to get theis kicks in life. .
now grow up.

i have a e6600 and a 8800gt proverclocked and i run it at 1200 by 1600 with everything maxed out completely, no lag what so ever, i also get unbelivibly good load times, like 3secs for the loading...

Coorection:
My videoC is: The Sapphire Radeon X1600 XT 256MB

I have a question:
I have a Core 2 Duo 2,66GHz E6600, 1Gb RAM, A x1650 series 252 Mb. It will work?
How it will work? 30FPS in hight at 800x600? please help me...

another agp user is just here! i have a P4 3,06 HT with 512 mb ram. Video card is Ati HD2600pro agp.. and this game works "playable" with "low texture" and "medium world detail and post processing" settings..

To eric7233, I really hate to say this bud, but those specs are horrible !! PCI buses have been outdated for about the last 3 years. I'm actually surprised you can run it at all. If it was an AGP card, i would still be hesitant to try it out. You should really upgrade your system to at leat a p4, with a PCI-E bus.
