It will most probably not be able to utilize hyper threading(higher end i7's), no games are yet and there's only a small handful of games out there that can utilize even four cores still. Threading a game engine is no trivial feat of software engineering.

The only think that I fear that could lower my perf with the game is my 4gb of ram. Tried to search for 4 more GB of the same Mushkin ram but it's discontinued....

And please people, if you buy a new system with a new OS, dont buy a *@&$*@$ 32bit...

They should have released atleast the Minimum System Specs. Some of use dont have Quad Cores, Radeon HD5000's or GeForce GTX400's (i bet most of us dont.

My own Rig is just over 4 years old, and was build to run Crysis perfectly, wich it still does today even in Full HD on Maximum Settings, but im starting to doubt that its enough for this game.

Just trowing Rumours up about Minimum Specs/Recomended Specs doeesnt help people one bit.

I, like so many others would like to know that i can run the game perfectly fine before Pre-ordering or Buying it.

If i fall short, than maybe i can upgrade, or build a new Rig, but so far i have not had that need at all for any game, it still runs all the games i play perfect at there highest settings.

So i dont think its stupid to ask about the Minimum/Recomended System Requirements at all, Im sure they know perfectly well what they are and should just post them/release them.

If you think people are Whining asking for that Info, than your either just build a brand new high end system, are a spoiled lil brat, or rich (or just dumb)

They are still optimizing the sim. Its not in their best interests to post minimum /recommended specs until they've squeezed every last frame they can in performance. I would guess you will get the information you need by the end of February when they have to send their copy in for pressing and distribution.

If you're running that Q9550 @ >3.9gHz 24/7 I can pretty much guarantee you that another 4gb of ram will do your system good. I was lucky to find another set of 4gb of my discontinued G.Skills myself but they had a different heatspreader on them. Luckily the timings, speed and voltage were the same as my old ones so I pulled the trigger. Works like a charm. My experience was a much smoother gameplay and a few FPS extra. Flightsims dig ram IMO. But you have a 2gb graphics card though so you might not get the same increase as me.

You got a few extra fps in IL2 thanks to the additional 4GB?

I'm sorry I forgot to mention but IL-2 didn't see much FPS increase besides the object rendering over cities etc. went smoother. RoF gained 2-5FPS as well, depending on the map and number of pilots. I'm @ 3.8-3.9gHz on my Q9550. So no, I don't think it was the RAM that got me the extra FPS but it gave my cpu some extra workspace and that's always a good thing when you have lots of tasks cluttering up in your memory on occation. Like when you're flying over a city etc.
