It doesn't require a very powerful video card (a Geforce 8600 GTS will run it fine on the highest settings) but the game requires a lot of RAM and a powerful CPU to simulate all 130+ sectors and the thousands of ships active at the same time. Early in the game, it doesn't need much power but as you progress in the game and explore more sectors, especially if you lay down Satellites to monitor sectors, the game will slow down; early in the game my average FPS is around 60-80, by the time I have a massive empire it's around 40-50.
