1 gig of RAM
A total of 220 gigs for my Hard Drive.
AMD 64 3200+
ATI Radeon x800


I'm thinking I'm pretty much set for now. Probably in about a year I'll grab a new proccessor and motherboard. I'll likely be grabbing a gig of RAM as well here sometime.

I ordered a second gig of ram for my gaming pc recently cause it was dragging my Gcard down and another 512 for our 'home computer' so it will run BF2 and i can kick my sisters ass at it :P..

If i can be bothered im toying with the idea of SLI-ing my machine witha second 7800GT... but i need money to spare first

Well my computer can handle Huxley i think quite okiesh 3,4ghz P4 and x800XTPE.

But i probably update this year. It depends on when Windows Vista comes out cause im going 64bit then. And dual core for sure and atleast a Ati X1900XT with 512 mb

im on the same boat as you, ive had this computer over a year now and the only game ive ever been able to play on it was halo (which quickly slowed everything down, probably due to my lack of ram)
i did get a new gfx card when i played halo but it was a cheapie ati7200 i think, dont even remember but it was only like 128mb

im just waiting for huxley on the 360 tho cuz i dont feel like spending all that money to upgrade or get a new pc

I'm not building a PC specifically for huxley, but for almost every game out there. I can play all of the current-generation games (UT2k4, HL:2, etc.), but they are all on the absolute lowest level of detail, and I still only get 60-70 fps.

Your guys' computers blow mine away, because mine is a few years old, and I don't believe I would be participating in an open beta of Huxley, simply because I cannot run it.

I remember the day when I thought my 512mb of RAM would last me forever and ever...

I think I'm all set on my computer, I got a new HP a150n. Its great got AMD dual core proccessors, big harddrive, 1 gig of ram, and I put in a $250 Geforce 6600 PCI express graphics card into it.

But I dont think im going to be playing huxley on my computer going to be playing it on my xbox360. That way I can play it in 720p on my 32 inch HDTV with my 5.1 surround sound.
