As for the second part of your question, my own computers would probably be near the lowest end of acceptable hardware. Both my HP machines are several years old with 3 GHZ Pentium4 processors, WinXP, DX8, and weak Intel graphics chips. They run the current Alpha version of MA3 at about 40 FPS, using about 25% of the CPU time. Pixel shaders should not be necessary, though I will probably be adding effects for those who have them.
