Yatta! Your lame PC will run Street Fighter IV, specs revealed

by Majed Athab on May 15th 2009 5:30PM

It must be quite an annoying wait for you PC gamers, knowing that your console brethren are already finding enjoyment in Street Fighter IV. There must be something we can do to make this interim more bearable? Oh, we know! We have just the thing; we've got the specs, thanks to Capcom.

Wouldn't you just love to know if your PC can handle all of Bison's psycho power? Chances are, it can. Check after the break for the minimum requirements and see if your rig stacks up.

My Geforce 5200 FX can;'t handle that ;_;

I feel for you, that card was a piece of shit even on it's release day.

are you a dell owner that had to put up with a shitty pci card because you didnt have a pci-e or agp slot?

i have that card in my hp desktop. i feel for you

Worst $120 I ever spent. EVER. Game after game, that card proved it couldn't even run nvidia's own demos with any spunk. Couldn't play Doom3 at a decent resolution, couldn't play FarCry with anything cranked up - not get into how unstable the overclock was...

...dang was I glad to give that card away!

*Laughs while holding my (only) $130 9800GTX+*

Pretty nice low-end requirements. Wonder how it will look.

I haven't played any Street Fight (except for a few minutes at my friends dads work) but is Yatta! supposed to be a SF reference or a Heroes reference?

*sigh* for reals?

It's an exclamation that Chun Li makes after winning in Street Fighter.

it just means I did it, it made me think of Hiro too though lol

Yeah, I can't help but read it in Hiro's voice.

Yatta (やった) is a Japanese short form for "yarimashita", which translates to "(I/We) did it!".

A mystery since 1991.

Just look for it on Youtube already...

Am I the only one for whom the following video is always the first thing I think of when I hear "Yatta!":

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rW6M8D41ZWU

Definitely one of my favorite early internet discoveries.

... This conversation just seriously happened? Really?

It'll be fine. The arcade machine is pretty much a dinosaur, and the console versions aren't exactly cutting edge in the graphics department either.

MUAHAHHAA MacBook Pro prepare to receive windows vista...(im sorry old friend)

You could try out Windows 7 too, y'know. For freesies. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/download.aspx
Should run the game... but you wont have to deal with a crappier OS.

Wow and I assumed that almost everyone here on Joystiq had no gaming PCs and just consoles. Big surprise to me! : 0

Sorry, that was a reply to Zertoss's thread.

@Cosmo:
Well you still have a point. If you want to speak more PC-game Joystiq, that's BigDownload. http://news.bigdownload.com/

It's community is very much sad and small because they don't give us icons and a heart system. >:\

Thanks Zax, I had been told the client was up but will I be able to install on the MBP (08) without vista? (I'm not very good with computers :( )

If your PC can not run this game, THROW IT OUT NOW.

GFWL - See you guys online July 7th.

*grumble* my 8800GTS is still a good card

Totally thought I replied to the other comment... damnnnn

@Victor: I have 12GB of RAM in my Intel Corei7 920 system.

This insane amount of RAM helps in After Effects (RAM previews) and Photoshop CS4 64-bit. Also improves performance of Dynamic Link by keeping the separate programs in memory.

Do you even NEED 9GB RAM? That's just superflous IMO.
With 4 gigs you can open Crysis, Photoshop and probaby good ol' Counter-Strike at the same time, and why the crap would I want to do that?

my tax build =)

Intel Q9650 quad Oc @ 4.0ghz
8gb DDR2 gskill PC2 8500 (yeah its not ddr 3 :p )
2x Hitachi 1tb Sata hdd
1100w psu
LG Blu ray/hd dvd combo
Radeon HD 4870 1gb gddr5 (sapphire, should have got the x2)
GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX
Thermal Take Armor+Liquid cooling system case.
3.5 IR pannel.

The real question is will my new Mini ITX atom build be able to run it lol. Hopefully.

Hey! Whose PC are you calling lame?

OS:Windows 7 RC1
CPU: Intel Corei7 920 2.4GHz
RAM: 6GB DDR3
HDD: 1TB
Video: DirectX 11, ATI Radeon HD 4870, VRAM: 1GB
Sound: Direct Sound, DirectX 11
Input Device: Xbox 360 controller, PS2 controller

I think Joystiq owes my clearly not lame PC an apology.

Scuse me while I whip this out...

OS:Windows 7 RC1
CPU: Intel Corei7 920 2.4GHz
RAM: 9GB DDR3
HDD: 1.5TB
Video: DirectX 10, Dual GTX-280sli, VRAM: 1GB
Sound: Direct Sound, DirectX 10
Input Device: Logitech Rublethingie Wireless
Monitor : Sony Bravia 40" XBR2

Input Device: PS2 controller?

YOU SUCK

PS3 controller here

otherwise you got me beat

:(

Couldn't even stroke my epeen properly

Dual GTX280s , 2GB VRam

Monitors: Viewsonic VX2025VM 20.1", Panasonic Viera 32"

I guess your PCnis is a little bigger than mine.

ooh! ooh! My PC isn't lame either!

OS: Windows 7 RC1
CPU: Intel core 2 quad Q9300 (2.5GHz)
RAM: 4GB DDR3
HDD: 2x 1TB RAID0
Video card: GTX280 1GB VRAM
Input Device: PS2 controller

ok, maybe it isn't as bleeding edge as the others, but it's no pushover, either.

The Core2Quads are still nice processors. Hopefully game developers will continue to make more and more games that support all of these extra threads modern processors have now.

Shagittarius, Zertoss, overclock those i7 RIGHT NOW!

Trust me, it's the easiest thing in the world to do, air cooled, at stock voltages stable, 3.4ghz to 3.6ghz is as simple as a couple of setting changes. It's ridiculously easy.

I know that you probably both know this and will slap me, but just incase not I have to share that. The 920 is unbelievable and I wish it could have my babies, email if I can be of assistance or whatever.

Wait is getting to my email possible on this crazy comment system....

goddjango@hotmail.com

You can also email me to say I am stupid for thinking you don't know all this... heh

I thought I was cool with my 3GHz C2D, 8800GT geforce, and 3GB DDR2 RAM

:(

OS: Windows Vista Home Premium
CPU: Don't know actually
RAM: Enough
HDD: Could be bigger
Video card: good enough to see everything on the net worth seeing
Input Device: Cheap multimedia keyboard and really comfy mouse

My point: You boys should loosen up and get out more.

I think it counts for something that my mouse is an OCZ DOMINATRIX.

Being told to get out more on a gaming blog is like being told to eat less at fat camp.

You should try learning what's running in your PC. Maybe even take the time to learn how it all works together. You'll save yourself a fortune in tech support calls and/or buying new machines to replace the "broken" one. The trade off is that everyone you know (or don't know, it doesn't matter) will expect free tech support from you. So while you save a ton of money, you die inside.

On second thought, continue living in bliss.

Why the fuck does someone have 9GB of RAM?

OS:Windows 7 RC1
CPU: Intel Q6600, OC'd to 3.2 ghz on stock volts
RAM: 8GB DDR2
HDD: 2TB RAID0 (2 1 Tb's)
Video: DirectX 10, Nvidia GTX 285, VRAM: 1GB
Sound: ASUS Xonar Essence (Amazing sound card)
Input Device: Logitech G15, Microsoft side winder X8

Ha, so i may not be top of the line, but it'll do, :D

Everyone should have 9GB of RAM and 4 quad-code processors with 2 top of the line dual processor video cards in SLi/Crossfire. For ridiculously low prices.

Then everyone would be happy.

OS: Windows 7 RC1, Windows XP SP3
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 3.46GHz
RAM: 4GB Corsair XMS2 DDR2 @ 433MHz
HDD: 500GB Samsung Spinpoint F1, 300GB Maxtor
Video: ATi Radeon HD 4870
Sound: ALC889, Logitech X-540 5.1 system
Input Device: Xbox 360 controller, Saitek Eclipse keyboard, Logitech MX518 mouse
Monitor: Dell 2209WA 22" eIPS panel

Hahahaha the angry comments, the downvotes, this is fantastic. And all because some of us have nice PCs. I love this site.

OS: Windows XP MCE 2005 SP3 (=D)
Processor: intel something 820 2.8 (dual core? idk)
RAM (3gb)
video card: ATI X300 (i hate this card)
PSU: 375 w
Input: PS2/Xbox 15th Anniversary SF3:Third Strike Arcade stick
HDD: 160gb.

can i run this game? =)

@Zertoss & Shagittarius
Did you fucking underclock your CPU, or have you both mistyped?
My i7 is @ 4.0 GHz, so yeah.
Also, DX11 cards don't exist yet, so I call your BS on that.
9 gbs of RAM? That's pointelss, unless you're running 4 copies of Windows Vista at once.
