can i run on my COD World At War on my computer?

hi

i have just looked at the minimum requirements for COD world At War and checked my computer specs on the canyourunit website (sorry new user, so can't post a link, but it's on google)

All my specs are ok except the one area it says i am not sufficient in is the CPU speed. It says that the minimum speed requirment is a cpu speed of 3.0 Ghz or better. My CPU speed is 2.79 (Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.80GHz), but it is dual core, so will that be sufficient?

thanks for any help/advice

    It shouldn't really make much of a difference.

    I'm not saying your computer will run it, but if it doesn't, it won't be because of the processor.

    With COD, it relies more on the speed of your graphics card than the CPU (unlike FPS games like left4dead)
    What graphics card do you have? Your CPU should be fine btw.
