I have a C2D E6600, 2gb RAM, 8800 GTX, I'll tell you if the game is "poorly optimized", or whether you guys just need better specs when I get it on the 31st.

Well, if you read the hired gun blogs they specifically talked about removing engine optimization features like LODs and mipmaps, so yes I imagine it is poorly optimized...

I hope i get atleast 30 fps. 20 fps..ehhh

In the case the x1300 really sucks that bad, I will probably get at least 50 to 70 fps then.

yeah..replace your video card

from what i've been told, AMD Athalon reads the GHz differently then intel. So 1.9ghz is actually above 2.5GHz

I thought ghz was similarly universal.

it reads ghz the same it just does more work per clock cycle, so a amd athlon at 1.9 ghz would be the equivalent to a p4 at 3.3-3.4, but a core2duo would at 1.5ghz would be the equivalent of a athlon at 1.9

I have an X1300 (upgrading to dual GTXs this summer). It runs like absolute sh*t. I'll get 20 fps if I'm lucky. I ran on high settings; the menus had artifacts!
