Aion Closed Beta System Requirements

Updated System Requirements as of 24/10/2007

Minimum:

* Pentium 4 2.8ghz, AMD Athlon 2800
* 512 mb RAM
* GeForce 5700, Radeon 9600


Recommended:

* Pentium 4 3.0ghz, AMD Athlon 64 3000
* 1 gb RAM
* GeForce 6600, Radeon x1550

Thanks Zinrae for structuring the specs for me.

The specifications are a little higher than before, but nothing too drastic. Still not going to stop me from getting a powerful new PC though...

Enjoy!

Hmm that's minimum, and that means you will lag in towns and have ugly graphics hehe.

Exactly.

If you played with that minimum hardware, Aion would probably look disgusting and laggy as hell. To be safe, here's...

Mark's Recommended Minimum System Requirements (if anyone cares)!

CPU: Athlon 64 3200+ or better
RAM: 2GB
GFX: GeForce 6600GT or better
OS: Lol, whatever.

There you have it. My buddy plays FarCry all the time on a system like that on pretty high settings. If you've got something like that, you'll probably be fine, though I do recommend upgrading to some of the new stuff coming out nowadays sooner or later, preferably sooner.

Yeah, those are the same specs that were on the official Korean Aion site when it launched. I wouldn't want to try running it with that though >.>

Well that's good news and I can run it for sure, but my spouse will have to upgrade his if he wants to play too.

Your specs are significant overkill, like pole vaulting over a 3-foot-tall hurdle.

With those SLI'd 7800GTs, you should be able to run at impressively high resolution with all settings maxxed. The FarCry engine is one of those games that responds almost linearly when moving from one video card to two in SLI (or Crossfire, for that matter).
