I was reading over the system requirements and it said

3Ghz Pentium 4, Core2Duo, or AMD X64.

Does that mean 3Ghz is the min processor speed no matter what type of CPU I have or do they mean Core2Duo and X64 of any speed OR a 3Ghz P4?

I use a 2.4(?)Ghz dual core X64 and everything is set to the max without any stuttering. But I do have 1GB worth of video memory (SLI) and 8GB onboard memory.

So my E6550 should be ok?

Reason I ask is because my E6550 is currently OC'd, but I am going to a SFF PC and there is no assurance I will be able to OC the same amount (~3Ghz).

I am thinking of buying an E8400 just go get 3Ghz stock.

What is means is either a:

3Ghz Pentium IV or ANY Core2Duo or ANY AMD X64 processor.

You'll be fine. I play it without any problems on my single core 3700 and X1950 Pro with medium to high settings.
