It's more than a match for my laptop.

Runns really choppy, even after dumming it down.

My CPU 2.1

; required 2.4

I tried a campaign. Once I got up there with the other planes, the sound started to lag really bad

.

Just curious.

Why buy it if you knew by the game specs you don't have the rig that can play it ?

Money would have been better spent upgradeing computer imho.

Didn't really notice that part.

My other high spec games run just fine on my laptop, so I didn't even think to look.

It just gives me an excuss to up grade my desk top.

I can get a free i7 chip, but I need to buy a new motherboard and RAM.

MB >$250 , RAM around $150.

or

I could get an AMD chip that would work with my am2 MB and a new graphics card.

Stoopid upgrades

. My laptop has done great until RoF.

I've just bought RoF too. And I can't use the sodding thing!!

. I went through the lengthy install process, including the download of a huge patch. Then the registration process

. Thought that I would get an activation link via email by way of an auto-response. Nope. I've now been waiting all morning and no sign. Can't even get onto the RoF forums as it will not let me in. Mightily pissed right now
