Your specs are your graphics card, RAM, processor etc. etc.
You can easily check those by going to 'My Computer' and then there should be a button 'System Properties' (if you've got windows and an English version). Click it and your most important specs will be displayed.

Well, that's just the processor and according to that one I'd say Skyrim would run.
But you've also got your vid card, motherboard and whatnot to take into consideration. My processor is a bit less good than yours and it -can- run Skyrim on very, very low settings. (You'd even have to go into the settings .txt file to change some parameters)
So we'd just take that into account and just assume that the rest of your hardware is at about the same lvl I'd say it should be able to run it at least. Probably getting system lag in fights, though. But we could possibly be more accurate with more info. If you could get into the Device Manager (should be in the control panel) and post some more info that would help.

To speed this along, if you are running a windows OS use the "run" err.. program (windowsbutton+r) type dxdiag and press enter.
Post the relevant stuff from there if you don't have it memorised.
If you aren't running windows: games, eh? glhf
Other than that, a slow HDD outdated drivers or excessive heating could be the issue
Edit: the display tab in dxdiag is a useful bugger

They say I barely pass.
I say high graphics with almost no lag.

A) If it's on PC, it is a "Steam Version", regardless of where you bought it. Steam is mandatory to run the game, which is pretty much the point of the article you linked.ph0b0s123 said:
B) The problems aren't effecting everyone with a 64bit OS, and are effecting quite a few without.
C) I think that would be the least of the OP's problems considering the state of his hardware an lack of knowledge regarding said hardware.
OP - I'd be getting it on a console. Less of a hassle. I can't believe I just said that.
