It will be fine for HD movies and SC2 at that resolution.

anyways for anyone looking to build a SC2 computer or buy a SC2 laptop, wait until beta requirements come out.

Hey TL,

Figured I'd post my specs and see what you think (should I upgrade or will I be ok for v.high settings)

OS: Windows 7 x64
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
Memory: 3GB (don't remember speed)
Graphics: GeForce 9800 GTX+

Based off an older Dell XPS, so a stock mobo/HD/case/psu. Honestly I'm surprised the PSU didn't buckle when I dropped the gfx card in.
Believe in me who believes in you

No need to upgrade anything, but if it is 64 bit Windows 7, you should take advantage of the extra RAM it supports.

Hard to say. What resolution do you play at? I would expect that big fights at 1920x1200 would begin to lag it down. But there's no way to know. I do know that the computers that were used at Blizzcon when I went were 8 series video cards and presumably Intel quad-cores. The game ran very smooth at the 1680x1050 resolution. But games never really got intense or anything.

BS mang. That rig should easily do SC2 at 1920x1080 maxed out. I don't know why people thing games like this require XtReMe rigs, especially considering we're looking at an RTS game here. I mean, if my friend can max out Red Alert 3 at 1920x1080 with 4x AA with a 9800gt (NOT GTX+) then i'm fairly sure we have little to worry about in that field.

On another topic: The 5570 is fucking amazing.
Look at these benchmarks: http://www.guru3d.com/article/radeon-hd-5570-review/
Basically, better performance than a 4670 4770 for only $69? (can't be found at that price in e-tailers, my local shop has it for $74.99) Sign me up. This thing is made for low-medium requirement games like SC2. Also it's 40nm so it's mad overclockable. Benches from all the sites i can find are amazing (for the price) I'll look into an excuse to put it into a future build just so i can test it out. Looks like this is going to be the new 9600GSO Price : Performance wise. I mean this thing comes in just under the 4850! In several games, although that card does outpace it in games dependent on core speed rather than framebuffer.

EDIT: and not only that, but according to this article, it is capable of 900+mhz overclocked, which is nearly 50%. Imagine what it would be like with aftermarket cooling for the VRM's etc. I mean, when overclocked, it is equal to the performance of a non-overclocked 5670. That's just damned amazing for the price.

You should be perfectly fine, as a matter of fact, there is absolutely no way you will have any trouble running SC2 whatsoever. Rejoice! (btw, what did that 3870x2 M cost you?)

Awesome! :D

The whole rig cost me around 1300$ 3 years ago. Something happened to it, and I abused the warranty to get a whole new laptop :D. So, I wouldn't know how much it cost me, haha!

Yeah the 5570 is pretty surprising in its performance, but the price tag is a bit steep imo. For the same price you can get a 9600 which performs better on just about every benchmark.

Looks like a very solid build, but remember to check the voltages on the A-Data memory. If I remember right, they love to overvolt their RAM to settings like 1.7V on default ><

It should be fine since the P7P55D has memOK (i think?), but watch out because anything higher than 1.65V on ram can hurt your CPU.

Edit: I think mahnini approves of the case

Edit2: I'm not sure what you mean by max resolution, but that will definitely run it 100% max settings at 1920x1200 ezpz
