Worth a shot.
If you dont have 2G+ mem and a nice graphix card, most likely will.

ET =/= rise of nations as far as computer strain goes.

Agreed, except that the size on the harddrive has nothing to do with how hard the computer has to work to run it.
I can make <1mb program that will ruin your comp, and a 1 TB that will do nothing.

I just built my computer with these specs.......


Intel Core 2 Duo E6400
2GB GSkill DDR2 SDRAM 800
ASUS P5N-E Mobo
GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB GPU
Windows Vista Ultimate

And I can run WoW and Guild Wars at the same time. But Im still having problems trying to run Silkroad on this thing, it seems like I'm missing a driver or something cuz I cant run Silkroad on this computer, it just closes after I click start after GameGuard Loads.

I'm 99% sure its my theme.. Why do I say that? Cuz my theme has "aeroglass" effect in XP.. I know it effects silkroad a lot.. cuz if I hit windows key and open up my browser.. boom, lag city :(
