This is going to be your bottleneck. Review here.

It is within spec for the "minimum" R2 settings. No idea how well it will play, or on what settings—and I doubt anyone can predict that for you. (Heck, the code for R2 is probably still being optimized ...)

I have;

Windows 8

Amd bulldozer 8 core cpu

16 gb ram

Ati 7850 hd gb

What do you think lemur? Would it handle the ultra?

A 7850 should be fine, but that CPU is about as powerful as an Intel i3 when it comes to games. So ... depends on how CPU-bound the final game is.

Seriously, until the code is out, it's going to be very, very hard to make predictions about how this or that rig will perform.

Will your system run R2? Without doubt. Will it run on decent settings? Yeah, I expect so. Will it kill the framerates on Ultra? Who the hell knows?

Well... I read that whole article and every comment.

The GDDR5 card is not that bad. Since then then have made a 1GB GDRR5 card which I have installed.

It's good to go for this game.
