Test Entries
Revision	OS	CPU	GPU	Result	Tester
3.0	Windows XP	AMD Phenom II X2 545 @ 3.1 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT	Only working on PAL version, don't boot on NTSC. Fully playable. Full speed without any slowdowns, main videos and BGM are broken, and some problems with the audio, but not very annoying.	luken
3.0	Mac OS X 10.7	Intel Core i5 @ 1.7 GHz	Intel HD Graphics 4000	Everything's fine. Has some slowdowns in large areas, but the MacBook Air does a great job of handling this game. About 40-60FPS. Fully playable.	ekatts
3.0-415	Windows 7	Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.39 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 4870	Fully working with issues. Videos are OK, no graphic glitches are on the list, but sound stutters badly with no BGM at all. Could be solved thru LLE recompile, which is very CPU intensive.	recon
4.0	Windows	Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 @ 3.4 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 6950	Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets HD Widescreen Hack	Spartacus
4.0-1340	Windows 7	Intel Core i5-4570 @ 3.6 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 4870	FPS ~ 55(US). Some minor speed drawbacks. No glitches in video, sound and music. Playable to the end.	Unruval
4.0-3178	Windows 7	Intel Core i3-2310M @ 2.1 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce 610M	Fully playable (PAL version), although some speed drawbacks at the beginning and at the Quidditch matches.	HauruI
4.0-5256	Ubuntu 14.10	Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650	Playable. Constant crackling with most sound effects using both HLE and LLE, including the walking sound effect, but nothing as bad as the first game's sound problems. Some slowdown here or there that stabilizes out the more you play, and texturing issues with letters in the menus, but otherwise gameplay is perfect.	Xerxes
4.0-8329	Windows 7 x64	Intel Core i7 @ 4 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970	Playable and completeable. There is some glitch that stutters the sound from time to time with whatever sound system you choose, also minor slowdowns. Tested with default settings.	unruval
4.0-9281	Windows 10 x64	Intel Core i7-750 @ 2.67 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 740	Will not load. Black screen with no sound.	michael
5.0-4607	Windows 10	Intel Core i7-6700K @ 4 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080	Playable. Footsteps and other sounds causes a lot of audio cracklings. FPS are stable. Tested with default settings.	SuperSonic
5.0-4700	Windows 10	Intel Core i7-6700HQ @ 3.5 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M	Playable, 30FPS stable, no slowdowns. Sound crackles with footsteps and other audio effects, music unaffected.	ImminentFate
