Bonjour à toutes et tous,
C'est mon premier post ici et je vais commencer par quelque chose de technique. J'ai trouvé sur le site américain de Spore, la configuration officielle pour le jeu (et non pour l'éditeur de créatures), que je reproduis ici.
Je trouve ça relativement raisonnable et complet, ils prennent la peine de mentionner les particularités comme les cartes avec Turbo-Cache et les différentes versions de chipsets Intel...
En bref, un PC, même ancien, fait tourner le jeu sans trop de problèmes. Au pire, si la carte graphique pose un problème, une bête Nvidia 8500 ou ATI 2400 à 45€ (même pas le prix du jeu!!!) fera très bien l'affaire pour un PC de bureau. Pour les portables, c'est évidemment plus délicat mais ce qui est chouette, c'est que le jeu tourne sur le nouveau chipset graphique intégré Intel, le GMA X3000 et 3100, qui équipe maintenant une bonne partie des PC portables à petit prix...Qui a dite Nowell?
PC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
* FOR WINDOWS XP
* * 2.0 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
* * 512 MB RAM
* * A 128 MB Video Card, with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
* * At least 6 GB of hard drive space
* FOR WINDOWS VISTA
* * 2.0 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
* * 768 MB RAM
* * A 128 MB Video Card, with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
* * At least 6 GB of hard drive space
* When launching the game, some Microsoft Vista users may receive a warning about running out of address space along with a link to the Microsoft Knowledge Base. If you see this message, it is recommended that you follow the instructions and go to the website listed in the message to update your system.
* For computers using built-in graphics chipsets, the game requires at least:
* * Intel Integrated Chipset, 945GM or above.
* * 2.6 GHz Pentium D CPU, or 1.8 GHz Core 2 Duo, or equivalent.
* * 768 MB RAM
* Supported Video Cards
* ATI Radeon(TM) series
* 9500, 9600, 9800
* X300, X600, X700, X800, X850
* X1300, X1600, X1800, X1900, X1950
* 2400, 2600, 2900,
* 3650, 3850
* NVIDIA GeForce series
* FX 5900, FX 5950
* 6200, 6500, 6600, 6800,
* 7200, 7300, 7600, 7800, 7900, 7950
* 8400, 8500, 8600, 8800
* Intel(R) Extreme Graphics
* GMA 950, GMA X3000, GMA X3100
* Laptop versions of these chipsets may work, but may run comparatively slowly. Standalone cards that are installed in vanilla PCI slots (not PCIe or PCIx or AGP), such as some GeForce FX variants, will perform poorly. Intel integrated chipsets featuring underclocked parts, such as the 945GU, GML, and GMS, will not perform adequately.
* Integrated chipsets such as the ATI Xpress and the NVIDIA TurboCache variants will have low settings selected, but should run satisfactorily.
* Please note that attempting to play the game using video hardware that isn’t listed above may result in reduced performance, graphical issues or cause the game to not run at all.
* The NVIDIA GeForce FX series is unsupported under Vista.
MAC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
* Spore requires at least the following:
* * Mac OS X 10.5.3 Leopard or higher
* * Intel Core Duo Processor
* * 1024 MB RAM
* * ATI X1600 or NVidia 7300 GT with 128 MB of Video RAM, or Intel Integrated GMA X3100
* * At least 4.7GB of hard drive space for installation, plus additional space for creations.*
* This game will not run on PowerPC (G3/G4/G5) based Mac systems (PowerMac).
* For computers using built-in graphics chipsets, the game requires at least:
* * Intel Integrated Chipset GMA X3100
* * Dual 2.0GHz CPUs, or 1.7GHz Core 2 Duo, or equivalent
