I was wondering what kind of computer specs would you need to run MWO at a playble 30fps. I know that i3 works more than enough, but I'm stuck with an intel pentium with onboard graphics.... any ideas?

I have an i7 3.4 gig intel processor with 16 gigs of ram. My graphics card, however, is a serious bottleneck. Its a simple integrated intel HD graphics. Because of that I cap out at 15-20 fps, which I can still play with just fine. If I were to upgrade the video to anything halfway decent (i.e. anything not integrated) I imagine my fps would triple.

No, he means i3, as in i3, i5 or i7.

(then its not a pentium....)

anyways yes getting off the HD 3 or 4000 integrated graphics would do WONDERS. i sugges looking at some nvidia 550-580 series EVGA cards. if you want a nice card thats not extremely expensive

I'm on a piece of **** right now.

Intel Core 2duo CPU e6850 3.00ghz
nvidia 8800gt
2gb ram

Game runs smooth, but needs a restart on every 3rd game because of in-game memory leaks. Fps drops from smooth 30 to 1 in the 3rd game.
