My rig isn't over the top to be playable!
ASUS M2V mobo £50
AMD2 6000+ £97
2 gigs geil ram £28
Hiper 580w PSU £50
ATI x1950pro £80
We're talking about a pc, not a games console here. It does more, far more than a console so is going to cost a bit more. But when the guts of mine (upgrade from older pc) cost about the same as a PS3 and makes PR playable then "high end rig to play it" becomes a point where people must be thinking that they cannot afford what the majority think is standard surely? You don't NEED quad core, 4gigs ram, 8800gt for PR, that's needed for some newer games.

I'd say you can run PR quite happily on any GeForce -600 level GPU from 7-series and above (I ran it on medium-to-high on a 6600GT quite happily too), with 2 gigs of RAM and any C2D of 2+ Ghz or a P4 of about 2.8+

Every thing on highest settings. My resolution is 1280x1024(my monitor isn't that big). Average of 58fps, high@72fps, lowest41fps.
Every thing i purchased is from EBay VvVvV
CPU:E3110 £100P&P(a E8400 in disguise, and it's cheaper =D)
Mobo:Intel P35 £100P&P
Ram:GEIL 2x2gb @ 800mhz £45P&P
GPU:9800GTX (£190P&P...A bargain)
And some Antec 550w PSU that is nearly 3 years old.
Next purchase in a summer will be a nice monitor.

resolution forced, with szx szy parameters, to 1440x900@60
My config:
Intel Centrino 1.7GHz
1 GB RAM
GeF 6600go 128MB
My laptop has celeron M 1.86ghz, 1gig ram and onboard graphics and plays the game at 15fps and lower on 800x600 everything Low, 75% view distance.
So, basically for someone with a desktop my laptops capability, they just need to buy a 7600 card? basically a £51 new upgrade to play the game on medium settings over low? That's not the end of the world to play a game is it? There comes the point when you have to realise your office machine maybe isn't a games machine? Just checked and you can get an ATI 2600xt for £45 now from ebuyer, half the power of a x1950pro

Fabryz, it's your resolution that's crippling your machine there. At 1024x768, my 6600GT used to be able to run on mostly medium setings, some high, with 100% view distance.

my old build, barton 2700, 1gig ram and agp 6600gt couldn't run the game, couldn't even run vBF2 on 800x600 90% view distance.
To play PR I upped to the next AMD cpu a san deigo 3700+ overclocked to hell, 2 gigs ram and an x800gto2 (unlocked model like x850xt) to play 1024x768 medium 2xAA full view, at anything "playable" I doubt a 6600gt is what anyone would want to use playing PR, 7600gt minimum!
The point is, is it asking too much to require a gamer to have a £45 minimum graphics card in their machine?

Same here - but I did have a very high end CPU to compensate I guess.
But no, Mr.D - it's not unreasonable for people to upgrade their cards, given that a six series GF is now four years old lol.

PR actually has "lower" minimum system requirments than any modern game that has been released with in the past year.
I'd say an average cost of £80(A 6800GT+ GPU and an extra 1gig of ram) would get nearly every one into medium settings unless they have a laptop, which means your pretty much screwed.
