Great... and how come just 8600GTS as recommended ? I shall be able to play games at highest settings then [my 8600 GT is factory overclocked and is nearly 8600GTS]

I don't know how. I don't know how a pIV can handle 50 square kilometers terrian, which is dynamic too. I saw this today morning @ 4:30 and i can't believe that it requires such a low config pc.

Maybe It has been super optimised

Just look at the gap btw the min spec & the recommed spec..........On an 6800GT, i guess FC2 will look like crap.........Anyway, I'll upgrade only when RAGE comes out......which will sure kick the crap out of Far Cry 2 & Crysis:Warhead & Stalker ClearSky.............

well this is a decent requirement at least the minimum requirement
and why some of u r complying for the low requirement do u all have super computer

At least for me mine is.

Fine for me too.

i hope i get good decent gameplay

well thats means i shall be able to game at full settings....
