Well I guess I am out. :(

The minimum system requirements for 1.20 are far beyond my old pc as 1.20 runs slower than snot :confused:

AMD-64 4200+X2
2 GB RAM
2 nVidia 6800GT's in SLI mode.

It has been a fun FOUR YEARS!

But I can not afford a new computer every time they "upgrade" the viewer.

You can still run 1.19.0 and 1.19.1 just fine... You're not forced to upgrade just yet. (^_^)y

That's a whole lot more than the minimum requirements.

I was getting decent performance with high graphics settings out of the 1.20RC on a lot less computer than that.

omg, you should have plenty of power, lol.

Im running SL 1.20 on a P2/450 MHz computer with 640MB of RAM, Nvidia FX5200 128MB, and 4 gigs on hard drive.

Im running SL just fine. I won't be the fastest shooter, or the fastest driver, but i can still get things done.

I run 3 clients on similar specs.. the only upgrade you may want to consider is the GC's, but no big deal, SL will still run on what you have.
