i ran daoc with catacombs on a 750Mhz pentium processor, with about 562 ram and an old ge-force card, if you want to use the newest expansion you'll need a bit more. my current pc has a 2.2Ghz amd processor with a top end nvidia g-force and the crazy thing is that my video card costs more than my pc did, go to best-buy if ya have one, theres an emachine pc (its what i'm using), which is also made by gateway just so ya know. emachine = low end gateway. and its made with the same parts as the top selling gateway, just doesnt come with as much ram (which they will add for about $35, all in all my pc cost me $515 and came WITH a free printer and monitor, if ya buy just the pc with no monitor or printer, its $645 odd but true. the video card i put in it however was almost $565 but you dont really need that unless you just dont wanna have to buy another one for a year or two, it'll take that long for ANY game to progress beyond your capacity.
