AH2 will run on as little as a 900 mhz with half decent 64 mb video.

Runs very smooth on 1.6 ghz with elcheapo 128 mb video card.

Anything current will do you fine.

Gosth's comments are true at the default video settings.  If you'd like to see the ack guns and smaller buildings from altitude, you're going to have to turn the detail settings up a good bit and frame rate will suffer.  If you're going to build a new computer, I'd recommend as a minimum spec: Mobile XP 2400+ or better, 512 MB PC3200 ram, ATi 9600 Pro or nVidia GeForce FX 5700, Abit NF7-S mobo, Antec true power 420 power supply,  WD400JB hard drive.  The NF7-S has everything, sound, sata, lan.  In Intel, P4C 2.4 and Asus P4P800E or Abit IC7, everything else the same.  The Moblie XP will overclock well past 3200+ speeds.  Motherboards are made in a lot of price points and won't make much difference in performance.  For AMD you want a Nforce2 board and in Intel you want the 865 or 875 chipset.
