Midway and Epic today announced the minimum and recommended system requirements for the PC version of Unreal Tournament 3 along with a pair of choice screenshots. UT3 looks like it will need a hefty computer to run this bad boy, the recommended RAM is 1 Gb, whoa! After looking at the screenshots it makes sense why you will need to run a rig of epic proportions.
Minimum System Requirements
· Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista
· 2.0+ GHZ Single Core Processor
· 512 Mbytes of System RAM
· NVIDIA 6200+ or ATI Radeon 9600+ Video Card
· 8 GB of Free Hard Drive Space
Recommended System Requirements
· 2.4+ GHZ Dual Core Processor
· 1 GBytes of System RAM
· NVIDIA 7800GTX+ or ATI x1300+ Video Card
· 8 GB of Free Hard Drive Space
Here is another screenshot showing of what you can expect.

2.4 Ghz Dual Core Processor recommended?????? That’s an expensive processor, even right now.
Yeah, I used to be big into PC gaming. In fact I pretty much skipped consoles until recently with the PS3, because the constant upgrade costs for the PC were horrible. And it definitely seems to have gotten worse over the years.
My desktop is ~ 3 years old and still exceeds the minimums and recommended specs, woo hoo.
Looks like it’s going to be more than a video card for me to run this. Wonder if I can afford a new PC…
I’ll be able to play it, but I wanna be able to play it at its best, time for an upgrade.
Yea, I used to be a HARDCORE PC gamer in middle school, but now in upper school I find I don’t have the time to play PC games, nor the money for the PCs. I just went with 360 and I’m happy with it.
Here, I built a PC for you guys
2.4 Core 2 Duo - $229.99
Mushkin 2GB (2 x 1GB) - $65.99
Core 2 Duo Motherboard - $100 (for a mid-range)
8800GTS 320MB - $279.99
Vista HP 64bit - $111.99
Total: $787 (Should last you for 2 years at least)
Or if you want a new rig go to http://www.ibuypower.com for a cheap system.
So mad that this may be getting gimped with 360
I’ll be running this on my xbox considering how expensive the rig would be. But I am still beyond pumped for this game! N’ the graphics ahhhh
