spore requires at least a 2 year manufacturers warranty.




















just kidding you'll be fine

[Gearhead Geek]

Spore should be just fine on that. The only suggestion I would have is to go get the latest video card drivers directly from ATI, rather then the OEM preloaded ones. But that should definitely be more then enough machine for something like Spore.

ok cool thanks. now on the boring weekend shifts when nothing breaks I can stay awake by playing some games lol
