Hey guys,
sorry to bother you but that's what the thread is for, right? :>

Specs are:

Intel Core i7-2640M @ 2.8GHz (in my laptops "speed mode" it apparently runs at 3.5GHz)
Intel HD Graphics 3000 and AMD Radeon HD 6630M (I guess the second gpu only runs in said speed mode, too)
4gb ram

how will the game perform? I'd guess it should perform okay -ish on lowest settings.

Thank you :)

Welcome to the forum
Your cpu is between recommended and minimum. Your gpu (radeon) is lower than minimum. It will probably run, but how well I don't know. If you buying the game, make sure it's radeon card running the game, not the intel one.

While running it isn't a top priority, as I've never really gotten into the city builder genre, but the overwhelmingly positive reviews did make me quite interested.

Cpu between minimum and recommended. gpu lower than minimum. People running mac says that intel hd 5500 performs ok on low settings. How well it will run on Ubuntu i don't know.

Confused about processor requirements. Minimal required mentioned often is 3GHz dual core. But on other sites it is 2Ghz.

Hi

My Specs are

iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2013)
Processor: 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics: Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB

Thanks
I have the exact same Mac. It works but you have to lower details level. And if you have a bootcamp, I recommend playing on it, it works better on higher settings.

Also when the screen gets fuller? Like when your city becomes very large? And what graphic settings do you mean: mid, mid-low or low (just an indication)? Thanks a lot for answering!

EDIT: sorry didn't look properly at the reply...

Welcome to the forum
Your gpu is better than minimum, your cpu is probably around recommended. A six year old 3 GHz dual core can have less performance than a four year 2,2 GHz quad core. You should be able to run the game on low-medium settings.

Welcome to the forum
Cpu better than recommended, gpu(Nvidia) around minimum. So the game should run well on low-medium settings. Be sure that your using Nvidia card when running the game.

I'm the guy with a GTX 970, Phenom II x6 1055t and 8GB of RAM reporting back in.

I'm playing on high settings and already at 1000 residents the frame rate is about 18fps on average. I'm a bit disappointed, 30fps is acceptable, but this...

Then there is something wrong. I have seen other reports the same thing. Please open a new thread in the support forum, describe your problem and add a dxdiag.

I need new hardware to be able to play this and it is time to upgrade anyway (have been putting CIV5 off for way too long). Looking at iMacs, processors should be fine all across if I'm reading it correctly but not sure about graphics. Any obvious do's or dont's here?

Welcome to teh forum
All three will run the game, all three gpu is better than minimum, If you can afford it I will recommended number three.
