If you ask any of the real reviewers and people who benched it for the public its a horrible thing to run on a dual core and the GPU almost counts for nothing. If your overclocking the GPU for the game know that your just blowing steam, the GPU gets choked because the CPU is too busy to send it anything to process.

That fact that it can easily drop into unplayable speeds at any given time makes me give it the thumbs down, a review using 13 processors against the game at some insane res and insane settings showed how CPU intensive it is an that quad core = win. Remember the game was designed to run on a triple core 3.2 Ghz ppc processor or alternativley a 3.2 Ghz PPC with 7 SPE Vector Processors.
That is just insane. Screw that game.
Oh, and GREAT THREAD!
