From an earlier article detailing various Nvidia tech used in the game:

"Furthermore, the agreement will see the integration of exclusive NVIDIA technologies like TXAA temporal anti-aliasing, and hardware-accelerated NVIDIA PhysX effects. The one example given by Infinity Ward was the enhancement of smoke through the use of APEX Turbulence, a PhysX toolkit that allows artists to quickly and easily bolster existing effects with super-realistic, physically-led particles. With APEX Turbulence, explosions, gunshots and character movement will disrupt smoke clouds, causing them to be realistically manipulated in reaction to the forces exerted. More effects are planned, so make sure to stay tuned to GeForce.com for additional details as theyre revealed."

Not that bad. I used to have a 550ti; it's a nice little card that you can probably pick up for less than $100. I just hope all games aren't gonna be 50Gb...gonna eat up harddrive space like crazy. 

wtf 50Gb?

This is why pc gaming makes me feel like shit.  My rig i3770k 8 gigs mushkin ram low latency and 670ftw is already outdated

also, recommended GTX 780? are you kidding me, NVIDIA? 

Nothing we've seen would imply it needs a 780 unless you're running supersampling at like 1600p

are they really "recommending" a 780 to play that game? :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

No it's not.  Don't buy into stupid marketing ploys.  There is no way on gods green earth that you would need a 780 to play that game.   This is just nvidia and activision getting in bed with each other for sales.  Your rig will be fine for years to come.  Don't believe the hype.   That's how they get you.

nope still don't need a 780 for that.

so this comes from nvidia i guess ? I mean wtf A 550ti as a minimum yet on amd they recommend a 5870 a card that mops the floor with 550ti . The amd equivalent is 6770. I mean come on nvidia dont be so obvious 6790/6850/5850/6870 and 5830 are all faster than 550ti and slower than 5870. So according to nvidia owners of those cards wont be able to play COD.

Wow, yeah they are trying to pull it over peoples head...

I'm willing to bet my Phenom II x4 black edition, 4gb ram and OCed 460 GTX 1gb will run this game just fine and I built it late 2010.

They've gotta be kidding. Those specs are ridiculously high for a 6 years old engine. Nothing we've seen justifys those requirements

A 780 is recommended?, how the fvck did they manage that with such an old ass engine :shock:

Basinboy

I know right.  I'm playing BF4 on a crappy unoptomized beta on ultra settings at  60fps and I'm supposed to believe that I need a 780 to play this game? Good one nvidia.   At least AMD comes out with realistic requirements and with mantle a GCN card is going to last you this entire generation.  I'm not a fan boy of either but as of now AMD seems like the way to go this gen.  

wtf 50Gb?

Thanks I dont like that they do that.  Just spent about 1000 on my rig last year.  Wondering if I should upgrade my i3770k to an 8 core and get a better motherboard.

At first I thought it was GT450 and 5870. They must have changed it again knowing that a GT450 and a 5850 is like a datsun vs corvette. However the 550Ti although it is a nice card it still is not as good as a 5870 or 5850. I used to have a 5850 (actually I still have it for backup) And it played everything I threw at it. I thought it messed up on me (but it was just a bad fan) So I replaced it with a MSI GTX 650Ti.

But are they saying that this will have trouble playing this game?

i5 750 quad core 2.67ghz overclocked to 3.2ghz

8GB Gskill Ripjaw 1600

GTX 650Ti

I used to think that was decent specs but now I am feeling as the say in summers eve commercials feeling not so fresh.
