Giants: Citizen Kabute either had some sort of a memorly leak or something broke with my computer, because I remember it becoming nearly unplayable towards the end. At first I was able to run it with decent graphics settings and it ran well, but by the time I was finished with the base-building levels I had had to lower the settings to "Lego blocks from Hell". The framerate still sucked, and I think I had something like a 900 MHz processor and Geforce 2 MX.Quake III Arena, Alice, AvP 2, Giants: Citizen Kabuto and Red Faction in potato mode. They really pushed the Pentium II 333MHz/Voodoo 3 3000 to the limits.

Some people have reported success with running Fallout on a 486 class processor. You might need a fast video card or more memory to run it on the lower CPU class. If you do plan to run it on a 486, make sure it is either an Intel 80486/DX or AMD Am486-DX processor; the minimum recommended speed is 66 MHz.
I remember trying to play Ultima 8 on my 386 and it was completely unplayable. UU must have been... interesting.I first played Ultima Underworld on a 386 <shudder>.
The consensus seems to be that Ultima VII was even more demanding on system resources than Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss, despite the latter being 3D.I remember trying to play Ultima 7 on my 386 and it was completely unplayable.
