Considering your system specs that you posted in your last thread, you're really pushing it. Chances are you'll run it, but it wont run well.


If what you are asking is what should you upgrade in order to be able to decently run the game, post your budget. We'll be happy to help ;)

Those are the recommended but I wouldn't bother with anything less than an E7200, 4Gigs of DDR2, and an 8800GT at the lowest.


Alot of people online that are sitting right on recommended complain about FPS lag, even on the lowest settings.

I'm not upgrading, but thanks :D


I was just wondering what you would recommend, because this game is horribly optimized, like, worse than Crysis.

Game runs crappy no matter what system.

Crysis was godlike optimized compared to this

Is it really that poorly optimized?

It isnt optimized, just made "compatible" to run on pc.. lolol

Well thats my thought of it,.

It runs decently on my system the only thing is I cannot change my Res at all...

When I do it just goes back to automatic 1366 x 768...


It might have to do with me running a 9800gt though... old card is old.

The game is also CPU intensive but my i7 handles it with out flaw I just need a better GPU.

Yes, this game is VERY CPU intensive.

I get mediocre frames without overclocking my CPU to at least 3.2GHZ.


i7 here I come

i7 @ 4ghz, fps spikes all the fucking time. top that.

If the developers had spent more than 10 minutes porting it to pc, it shouldnt be intensive on ANY of the components. the cod 4 engine is almost lighter than source engine..
