Crysis Warhead system specs - surprisingly not horrible
An eagle-eyed visitor (hi, exe3!) has pointed out that the EA online store has added system specs to their page about Crysis Warhead.

It's less than a year since the original Crysis specs were released, to much outcry from gamers forced to upgrade their machines - and it's interesting to see how interpretations have changed in those few months. Crysis Warhead boasts very similar minimum specifications to its predecessor, but in 2008, they're considered to be, on the most part, 'fairly reasonable'.
Minimum System Requirements:

CPU:
Intel Pentium 4 2.8 GHz (3.2 GHz for Vista)
Intel Core 2.0 GHz (2.2 GHz for Vista)
AMD Athlon 2800+ (3200+ for Vista)
or better

RAM:
1GB (1.5GB on Windows Vista)

Video Card:
NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (Radeon X800 Pro for Vista)
or better

VRAM:
256MB of Graphics Memory

Storage:
15GB

Sound Card:
DirectX 9.0c Compatible

ODD:
DVD-ROM

OS:
Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 2
Microsoft Vista

DirectX:
DX9.0c or DX10
Other than requiring a fairly steep 15GB of hard drive space, these aren't too bad (not as bad as we were scared of, anyway). Now, we're just keeping our fingers crossed that Crytek have learned a thing or two about optimisation in the past 10 months.

Crysis Warhead arrives on Australian shelves on September 18th, exclusively for PC.
