Mike7077 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 My laptop doesn't quite fit the bill, although it's closer than I expected. It doesn't matter, though, because I'm buying a new one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

feedthegoat Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Mine will run it, but will have to authenticate over the phone, as my gaming PC is not connected to the internet, still as long as the person I'm speaking to on the other end isn't a plank then that's all well and good.

Sy13 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 This is seriously annoying. I spent quite a bit of money in the Summer buying a new laptop (Dell Inspiron 1525) which has 1.83GHz dual core processor, 2GB Ram etc etc. I even upped it to 4GB Ram recently. BUT.... now the minimum specs have been released it seems my shiny new laptop won't run FM09 because it requires 2.00GHz processor. I am SO not happy!

craigy18181 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 i can run it no bother apart from the processor for vista, i have 1.8Ghz and 3 gig of ram, but i think it will still run no bother.

Wee Aja Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 My processor is 1.87GHz, and I have 1Gb RAM, although my integrated graphics are just dandy. That's a bit less than the minimum requirements but I'm not in the slightest bit worried. I was able to play FM07 on a PC that fell WELL below the M.S.R so I'm happy enough.... *and I just about meet the M.S.R for FM08, yet I run 7 or 8 countries with a large database.

craigy18181 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Yes but I have Vista, not XP i would be amazed if your pc refused to play it put it that way. I am pretty confident it would work fine and you will have no issues. If it runs on 1.4Ghz XP then it will run 1.83 GHz on vista, may be a tad slower but nothing you will really noticed I don't think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daley Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I'm sorry but I'm not that literate when it comes to specs. What is the difference between Intel P4 2GHz and Dual Core 1.83GHz? The Intel P4 2Ghz has a single processing core running at 2Ghz where as the Core 2 Duo 1.83 has two 'cores' running on a single processor at 1.83Ghz each, this means that if you are running multiple applications then they will each be using bits of each cores processing power. However if you are running just one application you should still see an increase in speed (as far as I am aware but I'm not 100% so don't shoot me!) as the processor can use both cores to do the processing.

Daley Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Thank you Daley for your help, much appreciated pal! No problem mate, I think that the issue is that SI (quite rightly unfortunately) can only say that they will support certain graphics cards (I would imagine that they have tested the game on systems with these cards in) otherwise if they set a min spec and for some reason a card that has that spec doesn't run the 3D engine properly then they could get in a bit of trouble from a legal position. I really think that any retail pc (be aware that business pc's won't necessarily have the same graphics capabilities as an equivalent retail pc!) bought in the last 3-4 years will be fine.

After doing some research, I think I definitely will be playing in 2D with this card. It does not support hardware T&L (Transform & Lightning) calculations (which is required for some games). The GMA 950 can not be described as a graphics card that is sufficient for gamers. Some old 3D games and especially 2D games should run without problems. Sounds ominous!

An Nvidia 6200 card will be fine to run the game.
