    Well, mine can play Crysis with almost all the graphics options on high, and it plays sc easier than i can sit down in a chair.

    I can't wait to see how it handles sc2!

    Huh?!?!
    I have an 8600gt that can barely run it on medium. Did you overclock it to extreme measures or something? Not even an 8800gt can run it on max.

    @DontHate: Not "all" the settings are maxed, only the little useless ones. I don't have shadows and shaders and all that maxed. LOL No way! And BTW: Mine runs DirectX10, maybe that's it. If you are running DX9, you're not getting all the performance out of it.

    all monitors are high def......
    all monitors are high def.... HD has to do with the pixel count on your screen, my Samsung CRT is a 19" that has a ratio of 5X4 which makes it high def running at like 2060X1600. Plus CRT's dont have a refreash rate either :)

    Umm they do. It is important. At LCD it isn't important but every monitor has a "refresh rate"
    I think :D

    Huh? You have a widescreen on normalscreen?
    I have Samsung(yay!) but it's not widescreen so i'm looking into monitors.
    I think i'm getting the acer 22'' widescreen. Seems like a GREAT deal.

    Yea, that's a pretty old processor and also really low amounts of RAM. You're hard drive's also pretty small.
    I suggest getting a new computer, or at least when SC2 comes out, because i'm pretty sure that one won't be able to run it at all.
