Hi all,

I have read many posts on minimum system requirements for Warhammer online. I was wondering if anyone has seen, or is running, a system similar to this:

P4 2.8ghz
2gig ram
mobo with only 4xagp cabability
Graphics HD3650

The reason why I am extremely curious is that I am currently thinking about upgrading TO that system (very sad I know but im low on $$). I have about $250 to burn and I would have to buy 2gig of memory, a new psu, and the HD3650. But... will that system barely even make Warhammer online playable? if its a worthless investment then I will avoid it... but that means I won't be playing warhammer online anytime soon.... which makes me sad.

Let me know what you think,
Adam

Should run decently well. A friend of mine was running WAR on a P4 3Ghz system with 2 gigs of ram and an AGP 7600GT. Your video card is a good bit beefier but your processor is a smidge slower so I think you will be fine. It certainly won't be anywhere near max graphics, but if you are not a graphics snob, it will certainly be playable and fun.

Though, I would seriously consider saving up about $100 more and upgrading to a low end core 2 duo. Without actually pricing it out I would guess a low end C2D processor, mobo, 3850, PSU, and 2 gigs of DDR2 would run around $350 to $400 and would give far more bang for the buck.

i was playing with similar, worse GPU and 1gb RAM.

was.....playable. could not stand the fps skips after an hour or so of playing though, you should probably get around 20-25fps unless your in a crowded battleground
