    Your graphic card is enough to play Statcraft 2 in maximum settings (I think).
    Or you had to get the 9 serie.

    Even with my configuration (http://www.starcraft2forum.org/forums/showthread.php?t=12849) I can run Starcraft 2 in maximum settings. I am running games like Crysis and NFS Shift in maximum settings without problems. Sometimes after a while when the computer is hot (I own a lot of fans however) the game starts lagging so I low the visual effects down.

    And I doubt that Starcraft 2 needs more sepcifications to run the game with full details. Probably to calculate all the units that are displayed maybe. But with my configuration I am sure to run Starcraft 2 in full details.

    EDIT : will the configurations for the beta be different from the final version ?

    @Gandromidar: I used to have the exact same processor. It had a terrible time with Dawn Of War and Battle For Middle-Earth 2. I doubt it'll run StarCraft 2 all that great in 3v3 or UMS.

    @Shellshock: You'll be playing in HD ... easily :D

    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit
    CPU: Athlon II 250 (3.0GhZ)
    VGA: 9600 GT
    RAM: 4 GB (3.0 GB effective)
    Resolution: 1920x1080

    I can pretty much max out everything I play: Unreal Tournament III, Halo 2, Mass Effect, Sins Of A Solar Empire, Bioshock, Dawn Of War II... Well, 'everything' except for Crysis, which I can only play on 'high' settings with no anti-alias. My very modest system will be able to eat SC2 for breakfast.

    I'll be upgrading my CPU and VGA come this September, but for now they get the job done.

    A more interesting thread might be: what do you think are the lowest system requirements to max out SC2 at 1680x1050?

    My bet:

    CPU: Athlon X2 5400
    VGA: 8600GT
    RAM: 2GB
    OS: XP

    To play the campaign you don't need such a powerful computer. It needs to be powerful indeed, but not more to run a multiplayer game or a UMS map as DeckardLee said. because we used to spawn 300+ units so even a Core 2 Duo as I have will bug to run UMS maps. I think, or I may be wrong.

    First to post their Macintosh spacs here. Makes me feel special :)
    Mine is an old mac from 2006. But it still does everything I need it to do.

    OS: OS X 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard) + Bootcamp windows XP SP3 I think it is.
    CPU: 2.0 Ghz dual core intel
    GPU: ATI X1600 - 128MB memory
    Ram: 3GB DDR2
    Desktop Resolution: 1440x900

    So will it play SC2? I think yes. As even now I can play games sccording to their boxes I should not be able too. But SC2 on max setting I think not. I'm not bothered really as long as I can play it.

    And I am sure Blizzard will have some OS X beta testers as well. As they seem to want to get things right for everyone so all can play their games. If every game dev was liek this, the world would be perfect but alas it is not like this. OS X only and windows only games still exist.

    This is the only possible problem I see. I'm not saying you're for sure gonna have issues, but I don't think you're gonna be able to run any particle effects. Like...at all. You'll also likely have problems in big battles in 3v3 and up, possibly 2v2.

    I think blizzard has said that there will only be Windows boxes in the first round of beta testers.

    My Specs:
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    Core i5 750 2.66 GHz Quad core
    4 GB RAM
    ATI Radeon 4670

    I play Crysis in default mode and it automatically choose "MEDIUM". So I suppose Starcraft 2 will run in medium too. I posted my config above.
