    looks decent to me. check out the official forums seems to be issues for some with AMD processors (not all).

    1. AMD processors are having issues with AoC at the moment.

    2. Try to get another 2 gigs of ram

    seems slower for me compared to Wow..i have over 200 FPS at times.

    on AOC i get over 100 at times...but, im sure that has to due with graghic requirements as wow Requirements are lower to accept more users.   not bashing wow just saying system requirements are higher for AOC.

    BIOS: Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG

              Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6400+,  MMX,  3DNow (2 CPUs), ~3.2GHz

                 Memory: 3070MB RAM

              Page File: 592MB used, 4363MB available

            Windows Dir: C:WINDOWS

        DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)

    DX Setup Parameters: Not found

         DxDiag Version: 5.03.2600.2180 32bit Unicode

     Dual nvidia 8800 gt in sli mode

    To OP your comp stats look good except cpu 3.0 ghz requirement and maybe a little extra ram memory.

    Better make sure he has 64-bit OS then because no 32-bit OS can actually make use of more than ~3GB of RAM.

    I belive you just solved your problem right there. But upgradeing to a 64 bit OS is another thing you should consider if you want to spend that kind of money on the game.

    That machine is better than mine and I get 30 to 40 fps in Conals valley and over 100 fps inside dungeons.

    Here is what you should do:

    The game code is pretty strange, when you have a GF 8800+ card then you actually lower performance if you set the settings to medium or low.

    Set the setting to high and then twist things down.

    What I did was that I clicked on the high setting and then I set visual distance to 1200 m, the universal shadows to low quality and then turned off bloom.

    Gave me a big performance enhancement over having first set the game to medium and then turning up elements.
