Will my PC be able to handle Planetside?

[Iczer-One]

I would like feedback from users that have similar specs to mine. I would also like to know what detail level(s) I can play with and not have slowed performance.

Thanks in advanced to any who reply.

My system specs:

Dimension� 4400 Series
------------------------------------------
Pentium� 4 Processor at 1.6 GHz
Integrated Sound
256MB DDR SDRAM AT 266MHz (soon to be 1GB)
64MB nVIDIA GEFORCE2 MX w/TV Out
40 GB EIDE Hard Drive (7200 RPM)
Microsoft Windows� XP Home Edition
Cable Internet Connection

Add another 512ram and it should be fine. May want to upgrade Grfx card too but it runs fine on recommended on my friend's GeForce2 card.

I concurr. the machine in general is very comparable to mine currently and I've been running great lately...even with my ancient old G2. you dont get all the textures maxed up, but who's got time for sight-seeing in a war zone?

add some ram (I'm at 512 right now) and I think you're set. PS seems to be quite the ram hog and the more the merrier.

PS: not sure what you mean integrated sound. that cant hurt..may not help but makes it more enjoyable overall.

Means that I have no sound card but the sound is built into the motherboard and is most likely comparable to a lower end Soundblaster card. It sounds great for the games I play now and I dont have an uber stereo system hooked up to the PC.

Believe it or not that's my rig and it's running great. Some more RAM and a good sound card are on my list for future purchase, but in the mean time I'm not having any problems playing.

You can play with a 32meg Nvidia Card?

Oh... with 512 SDRam, how often will I find myself re-booting? I hear there is some terrible memory leaking and that it should be fixed by release.

I've got the exact same system as gonnagetyou.. and although i havent played yet (still patching, cause it takes me awhile), im hoping its going to run fine. But I have yet to see....

Ok...Just wanted to let peopel know I have been playing almost lag free on this system.

I have had almost no problems at all witht his system so if you want to play the game but can't afford to upgrade You should be hooked up. The only factor that really affects anything as far as I can tell is ram, and with ram it is always The more The better.
