    nothing short of an 8600 will run AoC, better yet with an 8800+

    How do you think it would run Vanguard on a core 2 quad q6600 with 4 gigs of ram?

    
     

    The 9500, much like the 8500 and 7500 is >>>NOT<<< a gammer card, it is primarily used for dual screening or buisness applications. 

    For insance an 8600 will run circles around a 9500 and a 8800 will be MUCH better.  with you system do not skimp out on the card.  Get you a good 8800 GTS (512) or even a ATI 4850 for the same price.

  • Hey guys i posted this on the AoC forums and figured i would check here as well to see if anyone had any idea about this issue. 

    Crashing: Need help

    ---

    First off i would like to say that I browsed through the forums and did not find any info on this. Also i did an OOC on my server and a few people had the same issue.
    
    Rig
    AMD2 6000+ (about 3 gig)
    2 gig Corsair XMS
    2X 8800GTS (640s)
    2X 10k Raptors HD
    PS 800watt
    MSI Platinum Mobo
    OS: Windows XP 64 edition
    
    The issue is teh game will crash randomly, really for no reason... i could be sitting still, talking to an NPC or even fighting. Pre-Launch i never had these issues and have been running High Settings. I have been crashing about every 10-30mins of gameplay and even tried to lower it to med settigns and still having the same issues. I cant remeber the error (at work), it was an application error Age of Conan 1.0.0.0.0.0 or somting like that.
    
    What i have done:
    double checked on all my drivers and updated
    defrag
    system clean (spyware, disc clean up, etc.)
    
    I have been hearing it could be an SLI issue or that XP 64 is having issues with AoC... only thing is it ran fine in beta and before the Game launch patch (right after EA). Right now I am at a loss, does anyone have any advice or have found a solution to this :?

  • I have a very similair set up except i have 2 8800 640s.  I am running a VERY smooth 50-90fps.  Here is some issues you could have.

    1.  Your ram is "value ram" and the latency suxxors.  you could either get 2 extra gigs of it or get a GOOD musy or XMS 2 gigs.

    2.  AMD FX runs hot as a bugger make sure that baby is cool. 

    3.  get a second vid card for some smoother performance.  SLI will take a good load off your CPU and in some cases your Ram. 

    4.  Update your drivers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
