Nice thread! :P

Great idea, the thread should be stickied.
Maybe just post the minimum requirements and update it every ten weeks?

Which brand is it? Gigabyte, evga, PNY, ASUS, etc. Ive got the PNY 1gb Fermi 256bit

I would buy it but I would be very disappointed if it ended up not working

I have:
GV-N460OC-1GI Gigabyte GeForce GTX 460 OC, 1GB GDDR5

And if you check http://blog.wolfire.com/2009/02/overgrowth-faq/ and search for "refund" you can find how open their refund policy is (couldn't find better link for this now).

I was thinking of pre-ordering because I really enjoyed Lugaru in the past.

My specs are:
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16GHz processor
2.5GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce 7300GT 128MB
Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.7 & Windows 7 32-bit on Boot Camp

It's a bit of a dinosaur nowadays, but does anyone have a similarly old system that is running the game OK?

9400 M works. It's hard to be sure, but I guess 9200 M would work too.

Hey guys,

I just recently joined the forums, thought I'd post in this topic before preordering.

So here are my specs:

Windows 7
intel core 2 duo 3.0 GHz (2 physical processors, no hyperthreading)
4 GB ram
nvidia Geforce GTS 250

and here's the dxdiag stats for the card:
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250
Manufacturer: NVIDIA
Chip type: GeForce GTS 250
DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC
Device Key: Enum\PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0615&SUBSYS_11513842&REV_A2
Display Memory: 2287 MB
Dedicated Memory: 495 MB
Shared Memory: 1791 MB

So, what's the word then guys? I can run the Witcher 2 pretty well, but seeing as Overgrowth is still in heavy alpha stages I don't think I can really make any comparative guesses and just need to rely on what you fellow pre-orderers have experienced.

6 GB DDR3
1.2 TB RAID0
2x Nvidia 260M GTX

Currently running around 60 FPS with dips in the 50s which is awesome.
