okay quick question, if the mode for unlocking all the squares comes out, will my computer will be able to run a city on all of them?
(I repeat i'm going to add more RAM until 10 GB i think)

My guess is that you will able to run the game. How well I don't know. The gpu is, in theroy, better than minimum requirements. But how well it will perform i real life, I don't know.
You meet the minimum requirements. For better performance you must upgrade.
Laptop isn't good enough. Desktops is better than minimum requirements
We don't know. It will run it, but it could be a lot of lag.
Hmmm, that site says my AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T does not meet the recommended specs
His response was too black and white.Are you sure? I was able to play CIM2 on High settings with Shadows off at around 25-30 fps. I don't really have enough money to buy another video card
You will certainly be able to run the game fine, to a certain degree. At the start it will run perfectly smooth. As you fill up your land tiles it will get slower.

Ditto It said my graphics card was not sufficient.

Strange, should be good enough. It's pretty close to the recommended requirements.Hmmm, that site says my AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T does not meet the recommended specs
Your gpu is lower than minimum requirement. The game will run, but will probably lag with bigger city's.
Ahhh so a gfx upgrade needed then.
Edit: Just noticed I had put the wrong card down originally... hence the discrepancy!

Maybe. The minimum gpu has a passmark in about 1100. His card has a passmark about 500. Passmark is not the truth a good indicator. He has about half the power than minimum requirements.
Will he be able to run the game. Yes he will.
Will it be a smooth experience? No I don't think so.
I don't think I meet the minimum specs but can someone confirm this to me?

Welcome to the forum
Your nvidia gpu is a bit under the minimum requirements. You can run the game, but it could be laggy.
is it a laptop you have?
It's a big difference bertween 5570 and 5770
Yup... I might have to relent and something in my price range right now is probably only going to be a Sapphire PCI Express R7 260X 2GB or something. Whether I go ahead and get that and the game is another question though!
Hi Gaute65, thank you I am glad to be here and I am excited about the game as all of us.
I have a laptop so what would you recommend for me to be able to run the game without any lag?
Also is the CPU ok? The can you run it website told me it did not fit the minimum requirements.

I am pretty sure my graphics card isn't up to snuff, so I will be getting an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 on Wednesday (was considering the GTX 660 but it was nearly twice as much and would require a new power supply). I am wondering if my CPU will be sufficient though.
Thanks.
