We've seen quite a few system requirements for StarCraft II, many of which ended up being nothing more than baseless rumors, but these ... if these aren't legit, I'm done. Blizzard support for Europe has the system specs listed in full as if it's no big deal. It's StarCraft, so of course it's a big deal.
Minimum Requirements:
- Operating System - Windows XP/XP64 (Service Pack 3), Windows Vista/Vista64 (Service Pack 1), Windows 7 Home Premium
- Processor - Intel Pentium IV 1.3GHz, AMD XP 1500+
- Memory - (Windows XP) 512mb, (Windows Vista) 1024mb, (Windows 7) 1024mb
- Graphics - 3D graphics processor with Hardware Transform and Lighting with 32 MB VRAM
- such as an ATI Radeon 7200 or NVIDIA GeForce 2 class card or better
- Hard Drive - 15Gb of free space
- DirectX9.0c
Recommended Requirements:
- Processor - Intel Pentium D, AMD 64 X2
- Memory - (Windows XP) 1024mb, (Windows Vista) 2048mb, (Windows 7) 2048mb
- Graphics - 3D graphics processor with Vertex and Pixel Shader capability with 128 MB VRAM
- such as an ATI Radeon X1600 or NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT class card or better
It's worth noting this is specifically what you'll need to run the beta. I wouldn't be surprised if the full retail version of StarCraft II has slightly tweaked requirements. Also: wow, these are really low. What kind of magic are you pulling behind the scenes, guys?

[Update: Guess we should have known they were too good to be true, eh? These specs aren't the real deal. Rather, they were meant to be a placeholder until Blizzard gets around to starting the beta.]

That's a bummer.
plus there is no need to go over the top on an RTS, especially since they dont want the game to feel too different from the first one.
It doesn't surprise me that World of Warcraft and Starcraft 2 would have similar system requirements, since they're by the same company. I wonder why you think Starcraft 2's would be different?
