i have a GEForce 2 MX/MX graphics card, i wouldn't suggest anything below that (i never get above 30FPS, usually get 20, sometimes i'll get 10 if there's a lot of stuff on screen, like in pre-searing)

Really? I was running GW on a GeForce 2 until not that long ago and when I got a new card the only thing that I seemed to notice that was different was the quality of shading/shadows...nit-picky visual stuff like that. It didn't really seem like there was more FPS or anything, though I could just have slow eyes

. The only time I had any graphics lag problems was every-so-often in PvP when eles would cast a bunch of the hugely visual spells all at once in a short period of time.

^tells you if your pc can run ANY game (just make an account, select a game, and run). It will also tell you how well it will run.

^ Lol, my thoughts.

I use Mozilla Firefox, but I thought fine I'll open IE and use it, but it says I need IE6, I'm running IE7. ¬_¬

I had a comp with old slow 256mb of ram, Nvidia GeForce 2 MX 400, 1.7ghz P4, and I ran GW on max settings. Your computer will run it.
