tks, appreciate the information, if your ever in the se4 forum, stop in the bar and grill for a brewski or sasperella, don't worry about the bill, we'll just put in on Annette's or Tim's Tab http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

hmm, just thought, Gandolf hasn't paid a round in awhile, maybe his tab is empty http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif

Does anyone know if a RADEON Mobility 7500 (32 Mb) will cut the mustard? I'm thinking of pre-ordering tomorrow, but might wait until this gets answered - got bit with this by Civ4.

Speaking of pre-ordering, "backordered" merely means not released yet, right? It doesn't mean "all the other gamers preordered before you and we didn't make enough for the first shipment," does it?

Re: Dom3 comp requirements
 

I ordered the day preorders were announced and got the same message. I have no idea if you'll be in the first shipment, but I do know that the message itself doesn't indicate one way or another.

Once the demo is out, I'd just try that, and if there are performance issues, tweak the settings.

Some random examples: I am quite happy with the performance on my Athlon 1.4 GHz w. GeForce 4 Ti 4200 video card on Win98SE. I think the video card may be more important than the CPU at least for the graphics - I think my ~3 GHz Pentium with a not-as-good ATI video card on Win2K Pro has slower video in Dom 3. But it's still quite good as long as the background rendering distance isn't set too high and it's trying to show huge mountain landscapes and do huge spell effects at the same time.

They're smart enough not to spend 900++ EUR on comps?
