| 361355 | 2005-06-05 08:14:00 | I've been asked to build a new machine for someone and the only stipulation is it must be capable of running 'Medal of Honour - Pacific Assault' Checking round the various sites I find conflicting advice on the recommended specs. The demo required P4 2GHz, 512Mb Ram, 256Mb ATI or nVidia graphics card The final release was supposed to be made more compatible and would run on a 1.5GHz, 512Mb Ram & 128Mb ATI or nVidia Anyone run this game? and what specs do you have? and does it run ok on your system? Thanks a lot |

| 361356 | 2005-06-05 09:55:00 | I've played it with respectable frame rate om Intel P4 3 GHz 1 GB DDR ram 9800 Pro 128 Mb Now this was 1024 x 768 with Anti-aliasing off, and with about midway graphic details settings. It was still struggling in some spots with heavy action but still very playable. Recommended specs tend to always be the actual minimum specs, while the minimum specs are just a joke. I always aim for a resolution of 1024 by 768 or better and a minimum frame rate of 30, with your typical frame rate of 50 or better. You really notice a difference with a nice high frame rate. So to sum up: go for 3 GHz or better CPU 1 GB ram can make a good difference to loading and performance probably want a the next generation cards better than a 9800 pro such as a geforce 6800 or radeon X800 (and the 256 MB model if it doesn't cost too much more). MOH - Pacific Assault was one of those games where you never get much speed out of it, but I've seen worse (such as Vietcong). |

And they usually end up with crappy monitors ;) Yep, I just finished my 4th one and this one cost me about $4,500 without the monitor. I already have an awesome 19" monitor. P4 3.6 Ghz, 1 GB DDR2 ram, 500 GB HDD space as 2x250 Sata RAID0 NCQ, GeFroce 6800 Ultra 256 DDR3 ram, Dual layer DVD burner. Runs Far Cry at full everything with no frame lag and Counter Strike Source at full everything runs at 90-100 fps even with heaps going on. |
