Pixel Shader support required?

[Unfocused]

As Valve's survey showed that many gamers have the GeForce MX series, I suppose the Pixel Shader support won't be required to play HL2. It's just my speculation though, therefore I'm asking whether anyone knows something on this topic (did Valve say anything about it?).

The game supports DX6-9, so modern pixel shader support is not required, no.
