I'm hovering around the recommended specs, so I'm hoping everything will be OK at least for 1v1s.
I may get 4GB of ram though.

Fairly sure ill be able to run Starcraft 2 on lowish-medium settings.

You can run it on high I'm pretty sure.

You got a better cpu and card than me, and I can run it on medium.

So far i can deal with medium but once some1 hits 150 supply vs 80supply or so in battle i lag hardcore till its over.

Was thinking of upgrading the graphics card (maybe to ATI 5770 1GB or something for about $250), but may just wait till D3 comes out and just get a whole new rig.

How should this handle SCII?

Runs the game on ultra with no problems, even with massive amounts of units. Before though... Blah, had a bad computer that ran at all low settings.

I actually just bought a new computer in anticipation of SC2. Spent $1000 on it and this is what I got.

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Edition
Processor: i5-750 Quad-Core 2.66GHz
RAM: 4GB PC3-10600 DDR3 1333MHz
Video Card: XFX, Radeon HD 5770 850MHz, 1GB
Hard Drive: 1TB

Also came with DVD burner and all the other standard stuff. Pretty good deal I think. I'll probably cannibalize the 2GB of Ram I have in my other computer and put it in the new one.

Game runs flawlessly on the highest settings regardless of how many units there are.

You'll be completely fine. You're overestimating the graphics needs of a game whose engine is already nearly 3 years old. Get a 5770 if you want to future proof but a 9800gt will be perfectly fine for d3/sc2, especially if overclocked.

Off topic, haven't seen this thread in a long time. I thought Frag Krag killed it with the other one, but it seems to have faded into obscurity now.

Iam surprised how many people have I7 extremes. I dont see a purpose going out and spending 900+ on just a CPU...

Honestly, it doesn't take much to run SC2. I have a 5 and a half year old PC that was about as high end as it gets when I bought it, and it can run it pretty smooth. Anything brand new above $500 should be just fine.
