Metro 2033 is one of the hottest computer games of 2010 here in the Unigamesity, so I’m really happy to have found out over at the official forums that THQ shared with us the minimum and recommended system specifications for Metro 2033. And if some suggestions are quite funny (like getting “the biggest and best monitor you can afford, and a home cinema kit or surround sound headphones!”), the actual requirements are not that high and probably most of the gamers with an upgraded computer will be able to run Metro 2033 flawlessly! Check out the requirements below!

Minimum System Requirements:

* Dual core CPU (any Core 2 Duo or better will do)
* DirectX 9, Shader Model 3 compliant graphics cards (GeForce 8800, GeForce GT220 and above)
* 1GB RAM

Recommended System Requirements:

* Any Quad Core or 3.0+ GHz Dual Core CPU
* DirectX 10 compliant graphics card (GeForce GTX 260 and above)

Optimum System Requirements (that’s new!):

* Core i7 CPU
* NVIDIA DirectX 11 compliant graphics card (GeForce GTX 480 and 470)
* As much RAM as possible (8GB+)
* Fast HDD or SSD
