I am looking at buying this Pc and I want to know can I run this game fine with it? I bought the game and Don't have what I need and a graduation gift I get is to chose my comp. so for $400 am I looking at a decent game play mid to high settings? I am on my own internet so that is not what I am woried about. I want it to run well right out of the box. Hopefully no card needed for 1 or so years. so like the title says, can i run Aion well?

Realistically, that computer is unfortunately bottom of the barrel. Soon to be expired OS, insufficient Memory, insufficient video card, and a low end processor. I understand you're on a tight budget, in which you can buy this PC if you are...

Realistically, that computer is unfortunately bottom of the barrel. Soon to be expired OS, insufficient Memory, insufficient video card, and a low end processor. I understand you're on a tight budget, in which you can buy this PC if you are unable to build yourself, but I would at the very least buy this for another $70:

Realize you won't be able to run near the max settings, but at least you'll be able to game.

nnnHere's something even better, for literally just $30 more. Fairly significant difference in the CPU and GPU.nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229181n
