A member of Futuremark, you say? As in, he works with Futurremark, or he's part of their forums, or what? 11k on 3dMark03 is fucking spectacular. I mean, it ain't top 20 material on the records, but damn, 11000 on 3dMark03 indicates some seriously good fucking hardware, and it will most definitely run HL2 at a really good resolution, like 1280*1024 with all details running high, at a solid 60 fps.

He's a member there, has been for years. He got me addicted to gaming, that sucks because I can't yell at him for being on the computer because he knows it's just so I can get on. :)

My PC gets 1,100! Ha ha. That benchmark is all about the videocard! I wish I had a videocard good enough for 11k on 2k3.

Yeah, 11k definitely speaks volumes about that system. Gotta be a super-newer P4 or AMD 64, ATI 9800 Pro XT or maybe even an X800, some good fucking RAM, maybe a Raptor. Sheeut.

Processor: Your processor is fine.
Graphics : You should be able to play in 1024x768 depending on your card, consider upgrading if you have an older chipset such as GeForce 3 Ti
System Memory: You have enough RAM
Operating System: You will be able to play on Win XP.
Architecture: No Problems

.....
Graphics : You should be able to play in a comfortable resolution such as 800x600, maybie more depending on chipset.

who they are kidding? My video card can barely handle Half Life without flaking out changing levels, and it is the best and latest of the five or six in my collection. Bought this in back in 1st quarter 2001 or thereabouts if memory serves and not planning on upgrading anytime soon.

Official Specs from Gabe:

Well, just like I've been saying, you're not gonna need the super-duper-hot-shit system to run this game. A current system (one for around 500-800 bucks) will run it damn good, and a PC centered around an X800/6800 WILL run it at 16*12 with absolutely every graphical enhancement turned ALL THE WAY UP. I discussed this in a thread in Tilted Computers, which is here.

Pretty much the same thing as most people. I was planning on upgrading Vid card and processor in the next month anyway. to an AMD 3200/3400 and ATI X800. even though current sys will have no prob just vid card bottle neck. Running Geforce Ti200 heh.

I love the Atari sticker on the top side of the window! :D

my PC definatly sucks. it cant even run half life 1 without a problem.

Only thing I lack in is graphics card. It says I should be fine at 800x600 resolution though.

I definitly do not see me making any computer modifications for quite some time.

I'm good to go. No worries here.
