Before we start with the hard benchmarks, we list the official minimum and recommended system specifications.

Minimum requirements:
- Windows XP SP2, Vista
- Intel Pentium 4 1.4 GHz
- 1 GByte RAM
- 6 GByte HDD
- Geforce FX or Radeon 9700. Pixel/Vertex Shader 2.0 and 128 MByte VRAM.
- 800 x 600 resolution

Recommended system:
- Windows XP SP2, Vista
- Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHz
- 2 GByte RAM
- 8 GByte HDD
- Geforce 6800 GT/GS, Radeon x1600 or higher. Pixel/Vertex Shader 3.0 and 256 MByte VRAM
- 1.280 x 720 resolution

If you look at the system requierements, they look kind of a low when compared to other current games.

The biggest difference between the possible graphics options is to be seen at grass and shadows. With minimum details, there is just a blob shadow, with higher details you get correct shadows.

Important notice: On the following pages you will find direct image comparisons with mouseovers. If you just like to click through the images, go ahead as usual.

Difference between settings is indeed minimal.

Is there a difference on close-ups?
