That's not going to help most of the people who post here asking that.

Most of the people who post here asking are doing so because they don't know anything about system hardware and if theirs is "ATI X700 or Nvidia 6100 display adapter with 128 megabytes (MB) of RAM and the following features:
Pixel shader: 2 or higher
Vertex shader: 2 or higher"

The average user can't even tell you how much RAM his video card has, the brand name of it, or even if it's discreet or integrated.

If they did, they certainly wouldn't be posting here.

That's the only reason I've been recommending www.systemrequirementslab.com

It scans your computer and tells you flat out if it meets the minimum, meets the recommended, or fails. AND it works on lots of games.
