    [​IMG] Ok
    The game wont work for me because of my processor I am guessing (it sucks, an intel celeron 333 mega-hertz) and I probably upgrading it into a pentium III with 1.31 giga-hertzm or a pentium IV, but I am unsure on the rest, but what are you all runnin it on? and how is it running? what would you suggest for an excellent machine for NWN? I would love to see what you are all running on, and how the game works for you.

    [​IMG] NWN runs fine on anything above the minimum system specs.

    I'm running it on a Duron 750, 256MB RAM and GeForce2 MX. No problems in 800x600 with all the details turned on.

    If you have the choice, go for a GeForce3 Ti200 128 Mb videocard (or better). That really does it :).

    I have 256 Mb RAM, a AMD 1.000 MHz and the GF3 above. Smooth as hell on 1280x1024.

    Athlon XP 1.8+ GHz, 256ddram, Geforce 2Ti.

    It works in most (with some exceptions) situations in 1024x768 resolution with all specs to max.

    I am running on a 800MHz Pentium 3 with soundblaster sound card and Rage Fury graphics card. Not much RAM so can be VERY laggy around fire (exept the torch).

    running nwn on a xp1600+, 512mb, gf4 ti4400 system... *smooooooth*

    but you notice reloading sometimes, like opening a door, or running around in large crowded places.

    two situations that keeps killing even my machine: the endfight! too much of effects going off at the same time... & those little pixies in the neverwinter woods...casting something around 10 entangle spells simultaneously.

    I'm using my trusty old PIII 450 MHZ, 490 Mb RAM with a Riva TNT2 32Mb video card. Lots of RAM makes it work, but I'm getting sick of the lagging. Currently drooling over all those really expensive video cards...

    Waezlur, your PC is exactly like mine :p
    AND I have a 2nd PC that is the same again, but with 750mhz

    Seems to run fine, on lower details, smooth as a...gnome's head

    Athlon XP1600+ (=1.4GHz)
    Geforce 2 mx 64Mb (on 800x600)
    128MB RAM

    I'll upgrade to 256MB RAM, because I think the game acts a bit sluggish, which is very annoying when I move things in the inventory.
