A German magazine was granted a visit with Blizzard Entertainment and has released an article about its supposed system requirements. They do seem a bit high; perhaps it would be a good time to upgrade your computer!

Here’s what the magazine suggested:

StarCraft 2 is at the moment at the alpha phase and it’s possible these could be final requirements. Of course it is, however, possible that the system values could easily change before release of this game.

Minumum Requirements
GFX: GeForce 7/8 Series or Radeon 1000/2000 with 256 MB RAM
CPU: Pentium 4
RAM: 1 GB
Internet: ADSL 1 Mbit

Recommended Requirements
GFX: GeForce 8000 or Radeon 2000 series with 512 MB RAM
CPU: Core 2 Duo or Athlon X2.

Internet: ADSL 3 Mbit

Optimal Requirements
GFX: Geforce 9000er or Radeon 3000er Series
CPU: Core 2 Duo 3 GHz or Athlon X2
