For the time being I'm running a 256mb ATI 9600. I had my doubts about it working when I loaded the game. Actually I had to turn things up in the Catalyst Control Center, had a 3d engine malfunction, something like that. Download the latest drivers from ATI, Feb 2007 if I remember correctly. It will work, graphics won't be the best but very playable. My current settings are below, I get decent graphics (smoke, holes, fog, etc.) and reasonable fps. I'm still playing with the game settings to see how far the card can be pushed.

I'm running with a ATI 9550. I had to set everything to the lowest denominator, but it's running, kinda. Bagged three merchants the other day, love the deck gun.

New computer arriving Tuesday.
