System Requirements

These will vary greatly depending on associated hardware. The test system is as follows:

Testing System

CPU

Intel Celeron 366 @ 550 Mhz

Motherboard

Abit BM6 Motherboard

Ram

128MB Mushkin CAS2 SDRAM

Video

Diamond Viper V770 Ultra 32MB (nVidia 3.68 drivers)

Storage

Pioneer 10X DVD-104S (w/1.23 firmware)

Audio

Altec Lansing ACS-48 speakers w/sub
KLH 40 watt rear speakers
Home built 8w/ch amp (for rear speakers

Software ( OS )

Windows 98SE

For software decoding, the general consensus is at least a Pentium II 350MHz, 64MB SDRAM and a 16MB video card. Personally, based on my real world tests, these specs may be low…very low.
