What will you play Aion on?

I am curious what others will be playing Aion on. My computer specs are as follows:

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600: 2.4 GHz x 4
CPU Cooler: Standard Intel Cooling Fan
Motherboard: MSI P6N SLI-FI: NVidia 650i SLI
Memory: 4 GB (4x 1GB) DDR2 667
Hard Drive 1: Western Digital 500 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA 3.0
Optical Drive: Asus 20x DVD Burner (DVD+/-RW) w/ Litescribe
Video Card: 2x 512 MB NVidia GeForce 8500GT SLI
Sound Card: Sound Blaster Audigy SE 7.1
Network Card: Integrated Ethernet
Power Supply: 600W Power Supply

I hope to upgrade to the NVidia GeForce 8800GT's in about 6 months.

Not going to upgrade because other intensive games are played on other platforms.... I'm going to buy a laptop with similar specs(Little lower) mainly for my College work but of course it will be able to run Aion

dont, get another 8800 gT instead

i got a GX2, its a good card, but would be awaste for you since you can get pretty much the same if not better with another 8800 GT ( with a bit of software OC) for wayyyy cheaper.

I agree with that sentiment, if your mobo supports SLi then just grab another 8800GT and you'll see almost the same performance as the 9800GX2 - as the GX2 is 2x8800GTS in SLi on 1 board (though slightly less effective than 2 seperate 8800GTS in SLi)...

If your mobo doesn't support SLi, however, I would suggest just keeping the single 8800GT for now and wait for the next line of cards with the GT200 chips - supposedly in around 6 months for this... And we might actually see a performance increase over the G92s which thus far the 9 series cards have pretty much failed to deliver.
