PlanetSide 2 ran on an GTX 670 at E3

560x1600 is a lot of pixels to push and if the 670 was running it well, I think, for nVidia, if you're in the last 3 generations with a GTX x60 (x=4,5,or6) or better you're probably going to be good to go for 1080p at some reasonable detail level.

Coming in with a 540 or a 640 is probably asking for trouble (especially with an 'm' in there) at 1080p except at low details, depending on how well the engine scales.

Yeah, that's a bit long in the tooth.

geforce gtx 470, 4gb ram
with i7 [email protected] and 12gb ram

any idea if I'll manage a decent quality?

arrrgh..don`t know if my 9800GTX+ can run it with medium quality at 1280*1024

Do you think that this could run it at max settings using a 1920x1080 resolution?

Heh, it's funny how you all are comparing high-end hardware, while I still have my trusty Phenom II X4, HD 6870, 4GB RAM and I run everything at 1600x900 I doubt that I have anything to worry about.

Doubt it. Probably GTX 460 minimum.

I've been using a GTX 260 Core 216 for quite some time. We'll see if PlanetSide 2 marks the time to upgrade, because I haven't needed to because of stagnation due to consoles.

Heres to hoping my ATI Radeon 6900 runs this quite well! I will be broadcasting my game i believe alongside it (i have a beefy CPU. 8 cores at 3.1ghz each should be enough ) so hopefully I wont have issues on max with both of those running :P

Well according to Marine54, via his Reddit post, the game should run on a dual core rig with a 9800 (and supposedly, XP).

Seeing a 670 run it at that resolution, flawlessly, without being optimised is promising though.

[Verruna]

I panicked for a second but my gtx460se should be able to handle this game decently at 1980x1080, dont really care if i can't get everything ultra'd out, mostly high is fine by me I can always overclock it too i guess, cards about a year and a half old or so now. (from purchase)

Hopefully crossfire scaling is good. I have dual 6870s, but on BF3 the cpu was bottlenecking like a n00b because of the additional processing required to feed both cards. I only run dual 20in monitors at 1680x1050 though, so I think my rig will handle it well if multi-gpu is optimized.

How long do you think the lower end spectrum guys are gonna play when they are getting rolled by the "rich boys"?

It is quite a sizeable gap isn't it.

I would hope it means that the graphic options are just highly scalable rather than disable-able. I think a good comparison to draw would be Starcraft 2, the engine appears to be highly scalable from top to bottom, though I can't speak for features being disabled at the low end.

Alas this is another one of those things we can't verify till we get our darned hands on the game!

**EDIT**

Just to add, if people choose to play at the minimum requirements there's not much that can be done to stop them. It's their own choice and really you can only hope people don't expect the game to fly on hardware that barely meets specification.

How will this run on my Rendition Verite?

And a 1080p resolution is less than half the pixel-count of what they're running. Sounds like you'll likely be fine.
