I think my computer'll do, but it's a bit patchwork and it heaves a little nowadays.

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
Processor: Intel Core2 Duo @ 3.16 GHz
Memory: 4 GB
Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6850

That'll work, right? I hope that'll work.

Welcome to the forum

Intel gpu are not supported, so we don't know how well they will perform. A intel hd 4000 is way lower than minimum.

For a desktop gpu Nvidia 780 will give you good value for your money. Add 16Gb and a SSD and you will have a good gaming rig.

Thanks for the reply!

I preordered the game so we'll see what happens. With Simcity 2013 I was able to run on medium graphics with a decent sized city at 30fps. Hopefully CSL will be similarly demanding.

Any suggestions pertaining to forums I should check out in regards to desktop builds? I'm a noob and a half but I'm determined to build the rig I've been dreaming of.

It will do just fine. but you have to reinstall windows in the 64bit form.

You need a video card. The rest is fine.
By the way, that last sentence makes zero sense. You have a radeon HD4350 and your motherboard uses an nvidia chipset which has an integrated geforce GPU that is dormant because of the installed radeon.
Both GPUs are ancient and weak.

Was thinking of getting a 970 until I saw this.

Cant wait for this game to release.

Hmm... I have 2 rigs to test here, but It's more likely I'll use the first one (especially since it's possible to play offline with CS:L)

Rig 1: Laptop
Intel Core i7-4700 HQ 2.4 GHz
8 GBs RAM (can still upgrade up to 16)
Intel HD Graphics 4600 + NVidia GeForce 750M
Windows 8.1

Rig 2: Computer
Intel Core 2 E6540 2.33 GHz
4 Gbs of RAM (DDR2)
NVidia GTX 450
Windows 7

Would there be much benefit in me upgrading my RAM to 16 gigs?

Better than recommended. About upgrading to 16GB, i don't know if the game will run better. If you're planning unlocking all 25 tiles, then i think the game will run better with 16GB

Gpu closer to recommended than minimum, cpu, better than recommended.

Laptop: cpu better than recommended, gpu slightly better than minimum.
Desktop; cpu a bit lower than mimnimum, gpu slightly better than minimum.
I think the laptop will give best performance
 
I built this desktop to take a beating, but it appears to be perfectly capable of handling all of today's games.

AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor (8 CPUs), ~4.0GHz
16GB RAM
EVGA GeForce GTX 780
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

I don't think it will max CSL. For that you need something like this. It's better than recommended. It will probably last four years.

Ok, thanks. What about a desktop equivalent? It's better for the ability to change graphics card in the future, but a laptop is nice in many ways, less space and more mobility. What do you guys think of laptop VS desktop?

You know this video is fake ? But who needs 4 G of vram ??
Click to expand...

When people play at high resolutions it becomes necessary to have more vram

also the whole scandal surrounding the 970 is really pointless, it does have 4gb of vram, but .5 gigs of it is separated off as a low level memory that is meant to improve performance on future games that are coded to utilize it.
