Hello you guys think i can run nightfall and eotn?
My specs:
Memory: 1528MB RAM
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz
DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 256.0 MB
1280 x 1024 (32 bit) (75Hz)
I can run factions and prophs on dx 8 or with heapsize half of my ram on medium settings on about 20 fps all the time
Nightfall needs a better system then factions and so does eotn
what hz should i run my monitor on?
will my pc run nightfall and eotn?

Regardless, you should be ok, but the video card would be the weak point in that setup you have. Still, you *should* be able to run it...

This link will tell you if you can run GW on minimum or maximum settings. Just choose Guild Wars and click on "can you run it"

The FX5200 is a DirectX 8 card but it doesn't "freak out" when it hits some DX9 effects. I used to run it myself on a Geforce FX5200 128MB. It'll go slower, of course. Whatever settings you're using now should be more or less okay for Nightfall and Eye of the North.
If you're using a CRT monitor, run it at the highest refresh rate (hz) you can at the resolution you want, which is determined by a combination of what your monitor can support and the limitations of your video card. If you're using an LCD, it doesn't really matter. If you're using a CRT monitor I would definitely recommend setting it to something higher than 60hz though, because 60hz puts a lot of strain on your eyes. |

My fx5200 had 256mb and it worked ok with everything on low @ 1280*1024...

Your RAM and processor are more than optimal.
If anything holds you back, it's the graphics card.
I was able to run Prophecies with all settings maxxed (but with 2x AA and "default" reflections) on a GeForce 5500 - mind that my processor is slower than yours.
I currently use a 7800, Nightfall and EotN are slightly more graphically advanced, I'd reccomend a 6800 or so?
