I hate integrated chipsets. I know 'virtually' they can get 'up there'... but the game wants a lot of system RAM too. RAM diverted to emulate/augment the video card will have poor effects on any game's performance.

Of course, shooters do most of their loading pre-level so JK2 WOULD run better than NWN, which loads all the time.

More than that EverythingXen! The fact is that the chip doesn't use the RAM at the max performance (because it's not a fixed block of memory but an assigned that changes every time it needs) and the cpu have to check all the time which block is "property of video card" and it couldn't be used... so basically a caos!

To the first poster, if you like D&D then it's worth getting. Great adaptation of the 3rd edition rules, solid single player campaign, lots of promise for user made mods.

edit:
This'll be fun...

Apparently "crappy accusations" is super evil and causes mass suicide from all who hear it. So, I'll go at it again from a different angle, as I would hate to find out that someone sucked on a tailpipe after reading something so harsh...

BioWare thinks everyone should go out and buy a GeForce4 so they can play their game.


People and their inane accusations... Bioware has done nothing with the game to cause people to need a GeForce 4 level card.

PLEASE DO NOT KILL YOURSELF, OMFG THAT WOULD BE SO BAD!

I'm loving the game. It's keeping me just as enthralled as I have been in the past and for me, that says something. I can't wait to try out other classes but for right now, I'm having a blast playing a Druid Interloper. I highly recommend this game to anyone who is looking for a satisfying crpg and I think the longevity of the game is almost assured once the user created modules start to release.

It goes without saying that the popularity of The Sims was driven by its fan community who are still putting out awesome additions to the game. Why should it be any different for NWN?
