Ahh, those three magic words Need for Speed. It seems that this game has been there almost for half of your lives and it still goes strong. Sure it had some bad times, but from there it only gets better and better, gameplay wise...
PC Specs:
Pentium 4 (s478) 3.00GHz HT (enabled)
HP ch085 Motherboard
2.2GB DDR400 Ram
HD 3850 AGP Video card 512MB VRam/256Bit
160GB Samsung Hard Drive...
Windows 7
As usual, I launch game trough a shortcut on desktop, everything seems to go smooth. Intros are not lagging, even the nice 3D menu runs really smooth. It gets a bit choppy at race selection menu, when you look from a sky to a map of Secrest City. So i select to play as a cop, choose a vehicle and press A on my controller.
At first, I didn't mess around with graphic settings, wanted to see how it will run on default.
Another thing I notice that it takes quite a while to load race, and once it finished loading it started playing the pre-race sequence at 5 Frames Per Second, and it didn't get better after that, game just continued to run at 5FPS. I quickly entered the pause menu to set game to it's lowest settings... it yield in no result, game just cointinued to show a slideshow of exotic cars. I managed to complete few races then jsut removed this game from my hard drive.
I can't say that I was dissapointed, because I kinda got used to the fact that modern games require more and more computing power with every year.
Thanks for reading. Until the next time, goodbye.

well pentium 4 times coming to the end and even dual cores under 2GHz are awfully playable.
I assume that pentium 4 3.06GHz s775 HT is better than s478 as well as a pci-express graphics card like the HD4670
