I tried to run the game on my desktop. This monster has AMD Barton 2500+, with MSI GeForce Ti 4200 64mb vram and 1GB DDR 1 on 400Mhz. Unfortunately, the game did not even wont to start :D .

It's not heavy on your graphics card. As long as you have the required amount of VRAM(2GB should be more than enough, I have 1GB and works great) you should have no trouble running the game on 60FPS

However, if you like to build very large factories(like me), you need to have some CPU power, or the UPS will drop. My PC can handle larger factories, but my laptop with only a 2nd gen i3 mobile processor runs it at less than 20 UPS, which isn't bearable.

8GB RAM should probably be enough. Never had any problem with the RAM

That all said, your PC is very probably good enough to run the game.

got it on my Core i7 gaming pc
but it runs pretty well on the following laptop :
`Intel core 2 duo - T6570 @ 2.10ghz
4 gb ram
Ati mobility radeon HD 4300 series

and it runs well on the old Core i7 920 + intel HD gfx at work as well when i'm waiting for the servers to finish patching 8-) ;)
