I only say this because if you're card doesn't have these two things (which most cards made before this summer do not), the game will simply error and not start.

this isnt quite correct, the game will run, the game engine will detect and work on an older card, even if the card doesnt run Dx9, but Dx9 is installed. The game will not error, unless there is some sort of other problem. See my above post aswell.
