I see some people have already thrown out some suggestions and comments, I
just wanted to add:

There are so many different manufacturers and models of things like graphics
cards, plus who knows which cards were manufactured in what order with
respect to when the game itself was published.  You would probably find
system requirments looking like this on almost any game from almost any
manufacturer.  This was likely nothing more than a compatibility, and
fortunately, others had the problem, which was why the answer was easy for
others to point you to on google.
