    Will i be able to run COH OF?

    As the title says will i be able to run Company of Heroes Opposing Front?
    Mainly my purpose is to play to Blitzkrieg mod with my clan and i'm wondering if my computer can handle it before i buy it.

    I have a NVIDIA Geforce 9300M GS
    Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T6600 @ 2.20GHz
    4GB RAM

    I will also use my power supply to High Performance along with the use of Gamebooster. I am not expecting to play on high settings but to play on either med or with some settings on low. Anyone know?

    on low you will be fine. my missus laptop can run it with an integrated graphics card. I wouldn't bet on medium though.

    In a state of perpetual confusion.
    These are the minimum system requirements. Your system should be able to run the game, at least at low settings. As a laptop user myself, I can tell you that CoH is very demanding on graphics cards at times, and overheating of the card can be a real problem. I got myself a USB powered laptop cooling pad and found it made a huge difference.

    Code:
    1.1 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
    
    MINIMUM  
    
    •	Windows® XP or Vista
    •	2.0 Ghz Intel Pentium IV or equivalent or AMD Athlon XP or equivalent 
    •	Windows XP – 512 MB RAM with dedicated memory video cards (1GB RAM required for shared memory video cards)
    •	Windows Vista – 1GB RAM
    •	100% DirectX 9.0c compatible 64MB video card with Pixel Shader 1.1 support or equivalent and latest manufacturer drivers (see supported chipsets below)
    •	DirectX® 9.0c compatible 16-bit sound card 
    •	DVD-ROM drive
    •	Keyboard, Mouse
    •	10 GB of uncompressed free hard drive space (We recommend having 1 gigabyte of free space after installation)
    
    
    RECOMMENDED
    
    Direct3D 9:
    •	3.0 Ghz Intel Pentium IV or equivalent
    •	1 GB RAM
    •	256 MB NVIDIA GeForce 6800 series or better
    
    Direct3D 10:
    •	3.0 Ghz Intel Pentium IV or equivalent
    •	2 GB RAM
    •	640 MB NVIDIA GeForce 8800 series or better
    
    
    REQUIRED FOR MULTIPLAYER:
    •	1 set of discs per computer
    •	For 6-8 player multiplayer or skirmish matches, the Recommended System Requirements are strongly suggested
    •	Internet (TCP/IP) and LAN (TCP/IP) play supported. Internet play requires broadband connection and latest drivers. LAN play requires network interface card and latest drivers.

    You can run CoH, however Blitzkrieg Mod requires more than that. Currently your Graphics Card is your weak spot. As seen in here, your graphics card only scores 154 points. My GeForce GTX260 got 1726 points, and I run almost the highest settings (high textures instead of ultra) with DX10. However the installer gives you an option to install with or without infantry HD skins, so you should turn this off.
    CoH is cheap and I would definately buy it. vCoH is great too so yea.

    I ran CoH for about a year on a Pentium4 3Ghz, 2 GBs Ram, & a Geforce 7800GS AGP with more than minimum settings back in 2006-2007. I've been running it on a quad-core Q6600 2.4Ghz, initially 2 GBs Ram (now 3GBs) and initially a Geforce 8800GTX (I've had two two video cards since, currently a GTX-275) at near top-end settings (including 1920x1200 resolution). I'm not sure where the 9300 GS card falls in power but unless it's at the total cheap end of cards, you should be able to run CoH-OF fine, especially if you turn down the settings.

    9300gs is in the budget range of cards. its noticably better than integrated ones though, so will be fine running the game. As celestial says though with blitz you may want to do without teh nice skins.
