They have mentioned that the Source engine (their name for the HL2 game engine) will automagically scale down to your system, within reason of course. I think they said it would scale down to a P3. I'll see if I can find the post where I saw that and post it here. This is the closest thing I can find right now from planethalflife.com http://www.planethalflife.com/half-life2/

" While the new engine has all sorts of fancy features, it's still designed to scale and work on lower-end machines. Apparently a 700mhz processor and a video card capable of running DX6 is enough, although a 2ghz with a GeForce4 is recommended. Rumors about NVidia or ATI exclusivity are unfounded."
