he probably made that up.  If it recomended an e6400, then good luck AMD folks trying to run it with anything lower then a 4600+

even if they were real, and they surely aren't - you can usually take requirements from publishers with a grain of salt - they usually up them by about 20% to cover their bases, you can run most games at way below the minimum specs and with most games, hitting the recommended means full max settings, 1600x1200 & a very steady framerate

in my experience, anyway

Actually I find that you have to have far better than the recomended settings to get performance like that.

Don't be a tool. I just cut & pasted the requirements from sites like Amazon, HMV and Gameplay.
Hell even the official STALKER site has - "AMD Athlon 64x2 4800+ or Intel Core 2 Duo, 1Gb RAM, 3D Hardware Accelerator Card Required - 100% DirectXR 9.0c compatible 256MB (Geforce 7800, for example). It should be noted that at the start of the game development our initially targeted system requirements were much lower. As a result (and due to the lengthy game development) the game can be played well on lower-end systems (the game ships with two renders - DirectX 8 and DirectX 9 one). Additionally, the game allows to scale various options for optimal performance. For the maximum quality and performance, the more powerful system you have, the better."

As if I would want to lie about the bloody system requirements. Get a grip!

These are indeed the real specs (at least according to all the major fan sites). The reason the recommended specs are so high is because supposedly, if you satisfy the recommended requirements, you'll be able to run the game at high settings without problems - which is way better than you can expect from most games' recommended settings.
