Hmm i wonder, the minimum specifications for Deus Ex: IW are almost the same as Thief DS.

2GB free hard disc space
100% DirectX compatible mouse and keyboard

The demo of Deus Ex runs smooth on my pc, so i wonder if Thief DS would do the same?

That's a relief, thanks
Does Hercules GS Fortissimo III support EAX Advanced HD?

IIRC, no card other than the Audigy series support anything above EAX2.
Hmmmm, I tryed the Deux EX IW demo but couldn't play it after I installed it because a screen came up saying a flesh failed to initialize message (it says to check my video cards and to get current and stuff) but OH well!! I don't really give a damn about getting Thief 3 or care when I do because it will probably be disapointing to me in many ways anyways so getting it when it's a lot cheaper will be so much better when I get a new computer someday. I have two more fm's for Thief 2 to finish anyways. I know I got most of the system requirments because I have Microsoft Windows XP Pro, Pentium 4, 1.50 GHZ and 256 MB of Ram and my video and sound card is Nvdia something.
WTF?!? I've already heard Windoze is, how to put it nicely, liberal with the use of privileged accounts, but this is ridiculous.Originally posted by killed

I just bought a new computer, mostly JUST SO I COULD PLAY THIS GAME, and now I see that since I have an onboard sound card (but it supports 5.1 channel audio...does that mean anything?) and Home XP edition I can't play it?
Excuse me, I'm going to go jump off the Fire Temple into a pool of lava now.

You might miss out on some of the fancier effects, but you should be able to play the game (assuming you have a suitable graphics card).Originally posted by paulben

Thank you thegrommit, that's a relief. I have an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB, so I think I'll be ok.

Darn, who ever is in charge of optimizing the PC version of Thief 3 can't be doing that great a job. The game runs fine on an X-Box which only has a meager 700mhz cpu, and the PC version requires a 1.5ghz? That's insane. I can understand the PC version would require a bit more than the X-Box since it's not as easy to optimize with and you have to keep in mind the OS and everything, but 1.5ghz! eek!
Does anyone know whether there will be a linux version of the game? It'd be nice....
Unless the WINE emulator is updated before the end of the month, no ( and I mourn with you ).
Maybe I can upgrade my CPU manually. iv'e got a steady arm and a microscope.....
MB: MSI 745 Ultra
CPU: Duron 850
Memory: 512 MB Pc133 ddr
I want to be upgrading these, but I don't know what to get. And limited be my funds. argh!
VC: GeForce 4 Ti4400 Won't upgrade soon, too costly for too little benefit...for now.
Sound: onboard something or other; will upgrade to Extigy tommorrow (Sat), unless swayed otherwise. > Linky <

I have a newish laptop that will not ever run Thief 3, which of course SUCKS HARD, so this is what I am going to do, and I recommend the same:
I have a group of friends who are hardcore gamer geeks. They have a couple of X-boxes. I shall bring a big bag of edibles to their house and deposit said bag in the middle of the room. While they dive at the edibles, I shall abscond with said Box. Laughing maniacally, I shall have a previously-rented Thief 3 waiting in my car and I shall zoom home to play.
Yes, I'm <i>really going to do this</i>.

I wonder if something similar will be a mission objective in T3? (plant food decoy, steal item)...hmmm, it could work!Originally posted by V. Equinox

Let's see how I do against those minimum specs ....
CPU: N
OS: N
Vid: N
EAX 3: N
.... bugger.
Let's see:
Athlon XP 2200+
GeForce FX 5200 64 MB DDR
256 MB DDR
you think that'll do for an enjoyable experience?
I'm not concerned about my video card or my RAM, but I'm not sure about my processor. It's an Athlon 1600+, which is a little too close for comfort. According to the Eidos forums, those are the minimum requirements, and in my experience, "minimum requirements" usually means "minimum required to get one frame per second." I guess I'll just have to wait and see how heavily it uses my processor.
I only have a Sound Blaster PCI 512 sound card, so I'm not sure what the game will sound like. Guess I'll have to wait and see on that one, too.
I'm not buying the game until I know it runs on my system. Hopefully, Eidos will make it easy on me and release a demo before too much longer...
YE HAAAAA
i got a job now and i actually put in the "why do you want to work for us?" part of the application "to buy thief 3 and more RAM" the manager got a kick out of that, lol
my buddy is giving me his FX 5600 since he is now getting a 5950!
now my future specs are this:
P4 1.8 Ghz
768MB RD RAM (NEW)
PNY GeForce FX 5600 256MB RAM (NEW)
SoundBlaster Live! Platinum
i reserved my copy today!!
9 more days, YAYYYYYY
The object of war is not to die for your country, but to make the other bastard die for his
LOL!! i getting a job soon, maybe i'll put that too
i hoping for a 2.0 gHz and i need 512mb RAM for my comp for college next year so things look ok for me as long as i get a good vid card
i think with this hardware is it nice to play:

yeah, i love my sys, too. =)
Graphics card and memory are the speed critical factors. It might suck a little if your OS is windows xp. If you can get more 256MB ddr memory and a GF5600 at least (or an ati 9600) you may see a huge improvement.Originally posted by Tudor

If you can add 512md ddr memory (its cheap), it may have some positive impact on the load times between different maps. As an example i played U2 with a 1Ghz cpu, radeon 9000, and 512mb ddr memory and it was very playable while maintaining load times about 20s.
I hope the game has a feature to medium quality textures sets and use lower quality shadows (faster to compute) cause my radeon only has 64mb of vram and the my cpu may suffer a little. But if it runs on a Xbox there shouldnt be any problems.
There will be no option to make less complex shadows. Just to let you know.
