            Dual core and 1GB of ram = source engine needs (impossible). My pc will pwnzor it anyway!

              Don't forget... with all of the AI controlled infected running around, if you're thinking of setting up a LAN or listen server, you best have a beefy CPU. They even said that the dedicated server requirements will be more than those of TF2.

                Isn't this the first source game to use more than one cpu core?

                on topic: Game will definitely run ok, but I'm not sure about 1680*1050 with all settings to max :S

                  The Orange Box titles used multi-core support. It's unique in its implementation, and limited. Unless, they vastly improved their implementation (which I believe they have made some strides), it's the same as it was in the Orange Box.

                    Source engine isn't exactly taxing on fairly modern systems. Can't wait :awes

                      My processor's not looking so good. I got an Intel core 2 duo 6400 @ 2.13 GHz. Everything else is way above though.

                          The CPU requirements are considerably more strict, as mentioned.

                            I'm assuming due to the Zombie AI.Nobody wants brainless zombies running around do they?

                              So you have to have a dual core to play L4D?
