"uuhuh uuh ermmm"

"Well shit, it won't even install" xP
 
Dx11 this makes me happy, quad core... makes me sad, soon be upgrade time. A boys gotta game.
 
Wouldn't say so Wraithguard.... Wait till the game gets released, it might run on the G3258. It's not Ubisoft...
It probably will, but with the minimum CPU spec quoted being the 2500K, it'll run like crap. Unacceptable. This game is really going to need those extra cores.
 
You should keep an eye out then for bargains on the "older" haswell architecture i5s, because i7s are toooooooooo damn expensive.
 
The Witcher 2 is even a bit laggy on my laptop (even on low), so I had already lost all hope. It seems I was right :lol:
 
the minimum for this is the recommended for ALOT of games. Bit confusing about the GPUs in recommended though. A 290 is quite a bit faster than a 780 (usually) so surely it should be a 280X or does this mean AMD guys will be screwed over?
 
Damn.. 3570k and 7950 are still powerful.. yet i barely passed the minimum! 290 as recommended? Wonder if that is because it will use a lot of vram?

Also did anyone else notice they only mention AMD GPUs? Wonder if that means it'll be AMD sponsored with Mantle or something?

They want to show that the AMD card performs worse than it actually does, it may push some people to buy the nvidia card instead

its an nvidia optimized game, so whatever the 290 is slightly faster, is going to perform much much worse...

The whicher 3 also supports nvidia physx, new FX...smoke, fire, etc.

Too sad to see the physX beeing an NVIDIA exclusive. Whoever wants to run physX would have to either have a cpu with a LOT of cores to handle the load. (or have that AGEIA physX calculator pci card :P)
