I think it's not the figure of trust, because ClanBase posted them in the end of april:

If these requirements are true, they're are a lot higher than in previous NFS games. Which is good, it means that the graphics are finally better. I just hope it's optimized.

The recommended seem a bit higher, but nothing that an actual gamer doesn't own. I hope to run it well on medium to maximum settings.

Nice !! i see that the requirements are high !! it means good graphics and real heavy gaming !! !! i can't wait to get my hands on shift !!

[Dr Houbenheimer]

Well we know that the graphics are awesome but so it's not so much of a good thing that the specs are so high

[SLJ]

wao.....
high specs for shift...
i wonder for world online wat would be the specs

[Dr Houbenheimer]

the makers of world online stated a while back that the specs would be similar to MW so you should be able to play it

[SLJ]

o well... since the requirements meet with my computer... just have to wait for the release

[gtx_tuner]

amd x2 5000+ 2.61ghz ..... 8600gt 256mb ddr3 650/1800mhz bandwindh: 57.1Gb/s .... 2GB RAM ddr2 800mhz ... i think i have the recomanded requierments ..... can't wait to take a spin of nfs shift

[Rizur]

Im not sure does my PC meet the requirements... I think its the processor and RAM that arent good enough. And I think I have to buy new motherboard too for the processor... And new steering wheel... This game is getting expensive to me, lol. But at least it should look good

[Dunko]

High system req's don't necessarily tell whether the software's going to be all that great.

Just look at Vista...

[TRANSFORMER]

Now I can say w w, because I got Pentium 4 Dual Core & the rest is just a treat 4 my system!

[RedCarDriver]

No AGP? I'm out, at least for now - I have a more powerful computer available to me but I don't have regular access to it.

You should fix the news title since these are only rumours.

You should fix the news title since these are only rumours.

I didnt say it was official.

[skyline95]

Hmmmm, if these really are the system requirements, which I doubt, then I should run this game with NO PROBLEM.

My Specs:

Power Supply - SilverStone Strider ST60F (600W)
Graphic Card - Club 3D Radeon HD4830 (512Mb)
CPU - AMD Phenom Quad Core 9550 (2.21 GHz)
RAM Memory - Kingmax 4Gb (800MHz)
HDD - 500Gb (Sata II)

Good enough?

[DMNBT]

Ugh, I don't think my laptop will be able to run the game...

[lilgun28]

When I saw all the screen shots which looked so real... I already guessed it's requirement would be that high...
*Sigh* Guess I won't get to play these new NFS games until I get a pc made for gaming...

The only way I can play Undercover without lag is that I turn off all the effect, which then the game ended up looking like cartoon...

Anyway Most Wanted's graphic was quite ok too but it didn't require high requirement, I can play it smoothly with high alias and effects without lag... Wonder can they make these newer NFS version have lower specs...

[skyline95]

Erm, I don't know about this specs, maybe they will be like Most Wanted, since these aren't official... Anyway, Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box also has very good Graphics, and it doesn't need something really high... I play it with all GFX on Max and smoothly! And IMO it's the best Racing game that EA Games have ever made... 3x Times better than latest NFS's...

[elie8]

BTW my Specs are :

# Intel core 2 quad 2.83 GHZ 12 mb L2 Cache memory.
# 4GB Kingston 800Mhz.
# 1TB HDD Seagate.
# NVIDIA Geforce 9800 GTX+ .

Enough Already ?
