F.E.A.R. SP Demo

Well I read all the comments on these forums last night, and was SURE that my machine would have problems as I only have a 6600GT. It turns out I was wrong, the game ran great. I was able to play at 1024x768 with no framerate problems, and the settings were on maximum including soft shadows. I did have a stuttering sound issue until I toggled on EAX 2.0, then it stopped. I have an Athlon 64 3400+, so maybe the CPU is more important than anything else in determining a good framerate for this game. BTW - Loved the big armored soldiers, and the slow motion effects when you hit the CTRL key. Too bad the demo is so short. Definitely going to buy this game though.
