Hello folks 
I have just installed Dark Places as well as other tweaks (Thank you Splitterface) but noticed that this is very very resource hungry so I had to turn a lot of the settings off/down to have it running smoothly and set the resolution to 640x480x32
I am running an older system so know that an upgrade would benefit me greatly. I will list my specs and if someone could advise what seems a fair spec to run at decent resolutions with all the bells and whistles on?
Specs are:
Asus A8N SLI Premium mob
AMD Athlon X64 4400 (2.2 ghz dual core)
4 GB Geil PC 3200 (4x1gb) 400 mhz Ram
2 x XFX 7800 GTX Extreme 256 mb cards in SLI
Creative Audigy 2
2 x WD 7200 prm sata 2 drives in raid 0
Antec Truepower blue 750w modular PSU
LG 22" widescreen LCD (1920x1080 native)
Also have:
MSI AM2 mob
AMD Athlon X64 5200 dual core
4 GB OCZ PC2 6400 (2x2gb) 800 mhz Ram
1 x XFX 7800 GTX 512 mb card
Creative Audigy 2
2 x WD Raptor 10,000 rpm sata 2 drives in raid 0
650w psu
Dark places runs a bit lumpy on the SLI rig, not tried on the single card one.
