  1. Can my PC run SimCity 5?

    Yes, but as said before, it would have to be on medium settings. TO ALL, don't believe SYS Requirements Lab to the letter. I have: Intel Pentium® Dual-Core CPU E6600 3.06GHz RAM: 4GB DDR2 OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit SP1 Video: NVIDIA GeForce 550TI 1GB GDDR5 DirectX 11 According to SYS Req. Lab, I can't run the program... I run everything on MAX settings and no problems, my sys fans don't even max out or anything. Just go with the speeds the game requires the CPU to have. (EX: Intel Core 2 Duo at 2.5GHz; JUST STICK WITH THE SPEED NOT THE MODEL OR MAKE) Pentium Dual Core at 2.5 should be about the same. As I have compared the 2 processors before, there are very little differences. (2 cores, 2 threads, about the same cache depending on models, etc) I believe the Core 2 Duo has a faster Front Side Bus speed, but that would depend on the motherboard. Hope that helped, Chris C.
  2. Can my PC run SimCity 5?

    Ok, so, has anyone had an experience with installing this game with components under specs? Does it still allow you to? I don't want to buy the game and not be able to return it. My computer specs are as follows: Windows 7 64-Bit Intel Pentium Dual Core E6600 3.06GHz 4GB DDR2 RAM NVIDIA GeForce 550TI 1GB GDDR5, Supports Direct X 11 Thanks in advance for any help, Chris P.S. The only component that is under specs is my CPU. What they recommend is a Core 2 Duo at a slower frequency than mine?? I believe I would be fine because of the extra speed.
