The Secret World Requirements

The Secret World first came to us three years ago with a very memorable FMV trailer starring a gorgeous female, modern-day ninja litterally coming face to face with some otherworldly monster. This certainly captured our interests. Check it out if you havent done already.

The idea behind Funcom's MMORPG is that every myth and urban legend actually has truth behind it. The system requirements for an MMORPG seem pretty high to us, but if that is the case then we may be in for a beautiful experience. Lets take a look at The Secret Worlds system requirements...

The Secret World Minimum System Requirements

OS: Windows XP (SP 1)/Vista (SP 1)/Windows 7 (SP 1)

CPU: 2.6 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo or equivalent AMD CPU DIRECTX DirectX 9.0c Compatible

GPU: nVidia 8800 series 512 VRAM or better/Radeon HD3850 512MB or better

RAM: 2GB RAM for Windows XP / 3GB RAM for Windows Vista and Windows 7

HDD: 30GB or more free hard disk space

DVD-ROM: 8X or faster DVD drive (Only needed for installation)

OTHER: 512 KBPS or faster Internet Connection, Keyboard & Mouse

As we said, these seem a little steep for an mmorpg system requirements so we are looking to hear back from you as soon as you have tried it.

Thanks to our admin Cham0d for finding this one. We always encourage all our members to report any official system requirements if we have not got them yet, so please keep your eyes out and tell us as soon as you spot something [make sure they are official though].

I think it should be like,
DIRECTX: DirectX 9.0c Compatible
Seems like Felix made a mistake. ;) or there are CPUs with directX capability, who knows? ;D

Actually, since my CPU has a built-in GPU that supports a certain version of DX so doesn't that mean that my CPU has DX support? :D
And yeah, damn Felix. He brings shame on this awesome site, maybe we should fire him? :D
