Salute

A lot of us have been waiting to buy a system until CLIFFS OF DOVER came out.

There are various recommended system specs out there on various websites, but considering the feedback from Russia these recommendations seem to be actually only likely to run mid range settings on the game.

Plus none of these sites mention that SLI or Crossfire setups with dual cards are poison to the CoD program.

Can someone in 1C or the developers team give us a detailed breakdown of what works and what doesn't?

For those of us who are still hoping to buy the game and want to get the program to run as best as possible, even with the issues documented, this would be a big help.

For that reason, here are a list of questions:

What operating system works best with the program? 32 bit or 64?

What are the optimum number of cores in the CPU? 2, 4, 6? Is raw speed more important than number of cores?

What is the optimum amount of Memory? 4 Gigs is recommended, but some players who seem to be getting good results are running 8 Gigs.

This program seems to be a VRAM hog. What kind of video card works best? AMD Radeon or NVidia? 1024 mgs of VRAM is recommended, but what about cards with more? How much is optimal? Is it better to get a card like the 6970 with 2048 Gigs of VRAM or is it better to get a card like the GTX 570 with 1.25 gigs which would run a less up to date game better? Is for example the AMD Radeon 6990 dual processor card with 4 Gigs of VRAM worthwhile? How about the Nvidia GTX-590? Is the game optimized to use such cards or would the dual graphics processors on a single card have the same problems as dual cards in SLI or Crossfire?

What about the HD's? Are very fast HD's important to allow access to the program?

Detailed and honest answers to these questions would go a long way to restoring faith in the developers and designers.
