got this from an article linked on the front page. seems as if the demos that epic has been showing off recently were running on QUAD-SLI setups. i have no doubt that they'll fine tune things a lot more before the game ships, and they're probably using the extra horsepower to show the game in the best possible light, but hot damn, those are some monstrous specs to run the game to its fullest potential. full article here
As UT2K7 is just about the best-looking game on the horizon, we couldn't help but wonder about its potentially ominous system requirements. Our plans to stave off another PC upgrade weren't emboldened much by Morris' admission that the onstage demo was running on a quad-SLI setup, either. (Yes, that's four GeForce 7800 GTXs running in a single system.) But luckily, the game will purportedly run well on reasonably powerful, middle-of-the-road hardware at the time of its release, so you likely won't have to break the bank to be able to compete. Of course, the game will have extensive graphics-customization options, so you can tweak settings to get more performance in a tradeoff for visual quality.
