In all honesty,
1.) True, it is too eraly to tell because some more patches are needed for this game to run well.
2.) As a matter of principle and common logic, following things you will have to do anyway:
- Install Win7 64bit - No point discussing WinXP performance with this game as it is definitively running better in DX10 (and not in DX9 which is WinXP limited to).
- Upgrade to Quad-core if you find a cheap CPU fitting in your existing motherboad, because new graphics drivers are able to handle multiple CPUs and the CoD game will be able to handle more than one CPU (within limits) therefore better having four cores than only two (besides Win7 has real core management, unlilke WinXP)
3.) Download the MOD that is available which give a tremendous improvement on the frame rate FPS by removing some "unecessary" (for the current state of pain and misery most users experience) graphics thus making the game playable in every PC.
I did points 1 and 2 myself, point 3 I can not comment upon as it was not necessary for me.
Happy Flying !
