Lol, you had me worried there. It can be hard to tell who is being serious and who is just joking when it's all in text.

Thankfully my aging machine looks like it can handle this. I'm really looking forward to pushing its limits with this game

A lot of you people will have no problem running Aion, but you're probably going to be in the 30 fps range.

It's kind of tragic how many people I see with totally fine CPUs, but these weak-*** video cards from 2-3 years ago. Do yourself a favor and save up about $180 - $200 bucks this summer for a video card upgrade.
CryEngine goes nuts on a recent card, something from the Dx10 generation of cards - like ANY card in the GeForce GTX xxx series. You'll weep at the smoothness.

And seriously forget about 1 GB. Try hard to forget about 2 GB as well (depending on if you're 32 or 64-bit).
Aion is absolutely in love with 4 GB. It's less system intensive than games like Vanguard and Age of Conan, but like them, Aion adores 4 GB of RAM. Goes from smooth to butter. C'mon people, most MMO devs will tell you themselves that the 'true' min spec for recent MMOs is 2 GB and up. These games eat RAM for lunch, with so much swapping of assets.

A video card with 896mb of RAM or better is also highly recommended. So many things you take for granted are being processed as shader functions in the video card, and that extra memory gives you a huge frame buffer to work with.

Play Aion at 60 fps or better! It's stunning. Don't just shrug and settle for 30 fps on your old WoW-playing, circa 2004 computer. Upgrade or fade.

I play WoW with the highest vid options on my mac. I have 89 fps and 20 ms latency (which is very nice), but thats useless now lol. Don't start about bootcamp, it's retarded.

No idea what parallels is, but isn't Aion only for Windows XP/Vista?

Mine runs ok. Everything maxed except resolution which is only 1366x768 as on my hdtv, looks great though. FPS do vary quite a bit though. Get anywhere from roughly 28-60 FPS. My spec...

Core 2 duo E6600
3.5 gig OCZ DDR2 RAM
Geforce 8800 GTX
Windows XP Pro


Il build a new PC end of next year maybe.

Pretty sure you will want at least 1-2GB more RAM - luckily, memory is cheap.

Sorry to say, but I don't know much on graphics cards.
