Fallout 3 Message Board  

Hi there, I have a laptop and it meets all system requirements but one, the processor speed is to be 2.4GHz, I have a 'Intel Core 2 Duo T7250 2GHz'. Will this 0.4 difference make it pointless to buy?

Get it on console...i mean seriously..did you even have to ask this question

if your are not one of those graphic zealots, you can play it.
i got the lower end of the system-specs scale and it works fine.
resolution to 1024×768, high texture details, no shadows, character blendout to a reasonable distance so they dont just pop up the second before they kill you.

to answer your question directly: the .4 ghz dont affect the game that much. also you do have a dual core cpu.
as long as you configure the game apropiate to your system, everything should be fine.

(dont get it on console! you'll miss all the mods that come out later!)

just go to www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srl
and choose fallout3 from the dropdown menu, it compares your system to the games requirements and tells you if it will work.
if you are using vista you have to give it permission and maybe refresh the page.
