I did the 512MB mod to bump all my settings up to Ultra. I turned off Depth of Field, Hardware Shadows, SSAO, and AA but have good performance. So that got me curious about what ETW's actual hardware requirements for high/ultra since those are restricted to graphics cards with more than 256MB/512MB of ram.

I was wondering if anyone else has had success in enabling high/ultra the manual way and then still being able to play with reasonable speeds after a little tuning. Post your specs if you can.

My system is:

C2D 6400 @ 2.23 GHz
2 GB Ram
8800GTS 320MB @ 612 MHz

Running strong since 2006.
