forget what the box says, don't even bother with that link either, it's a generalized recomendation that's meant to accomodate the average person, but the estimates are always incredibly off (more so for minimum specs than with recommended).. I'm telling you that it will run like crud... don't bother running either game with that horrendously weak setup.. only way it'll work is if you set everything to low and play on lowest res possible, and only then will you be getting like maybe 24 fps max, which is just barely comfortable..
