Yes it matters a whole lot. You need at least a modern enough cpu with built in 3D code instructions on chip. It needs at least 64K+64K L1 cache, and some L2 cache. A Celeron [img]graemlins/1puke.gif[/img] could run it, as could a Duron, but it'd be pretty lame. Now an 8088 or 8086 would not run it. However, an x386 or 486 based machine would be a challenge.

On the brighter side, If your pushing at least an AMD 650, with 128MB Ram, and a good 3D card, you can smoke it.
