• Competitor rules

    Please remember that any mention of competitors, hinting at competitors or offering to provide details of competitors will result in an account suspension. The full rules can be found under the 'Terms and Rules' link in the bottom right corner of your screen. Just don't mention competitors in any way, shape or form and you'll be OK.

Confused at all the advice...

Of COURSE it is enough. The game will RUN on it just fine at sensible quality. What it might not do is allow you to have ultra settings at HD res.

Just thought I'd throw that in here in case the OP might prefer to save his money until the game is actually out and tested before deciding :) (Also I believe the open beta is out today?)

Agreed.

I'm running a single 5850, and its ripped through everything I've thrown at it since I got it.
Maybe not on max settings at ultra high rez, but then I am using a 40" TV as a monitor for now- high rez means I have to squint to read text from way back on my sofa. =D

Upping rez, while it does make things sharper, is a real hit on performance. Heck just dropping down a few notches allows you to ramp up all the other shiny options in most games.
 
If you can hold out a few months, AMDs 7000 series should be released in Q1 of next year.
