Same RAM, P4 3.2Ghz, only thing I'm lacking is the high end video card, mine is an FX 5600. I get a framerate of around 5-10 unless I play the game at minimal quality, with pixel doubling and no shading and it looks almost like I'm playing the Dos version of Doom 1. My friend has the same setup as me, upgraded his card to a 6900gs, but still can't play with the high end detail. FEAR does use physics, just not in a way that really impacts the gameplay at all (yet you can't disable it). The particle effects all use physics, and I have to assume it also uses it for the beer cans and soforth when they're getting kicked around.
It's ok, not really an OT post since system requirements are a big deal with game sequels. For example, we're all just praying we don't need to upgrade to a Cray when Duke4ever comes out.
