Diablo III Forum

I'm building a new computer right now. My main goal is to have it done for Borderlands, and then use it to run Starcraft 2 better than my current trash laptop is doing. 
 
My main issue is, after hearing news about Diablo 3 being so far off (Brad said they are sure it will be after 2010) My new, yet unpurchased and unassembled etc. desktop computer is going to be obsolete by the time Diablo 3 is installed on it. Blizzard needs to release these games or just never announce that they are making them. I'm sure I wouldn't care at all right now if I was just assuming that D3 was on the way, but now i have live action footage of the game being played and this drives me insane... 
 
I guess I'll just leave room for upgrades... 
 
:(

It may be obsolete, but odds are Diablo 3 will still run just fine on it.
 
Really, there's probably not going to be a big jump in required specs for PC games until the next generation of consoles is out, or even out for a year or so.  Current predictions put that at 2012+ most often, so your PC will probably be fine.

if it runs borderlands than it will most certainly run d3.

Electricity will be obsolete by the time Diablo 3 comes out.
