Help Upgrading (for new conan MMO)

fordy101 · 26-05-2008, 05:44 PM

Hey guys just recently baught the new Conan MMO and it runs like crap on my pc lol

.

Ill post the specs of my pc as it stands atm and what i think i need to upgrade to play, if you guys could just give me some advice as i sort of have a clue about PC's but not a vast knowledge.

Current PC spec :

2GB Corsair DDR2 memory
2.40 GHz Pentium duel core processor
1024mb Nvidea GeForce 7950 GX2
Gigabyte mobo
250GIG Hytachi HD
650W power supply

Ok noww . . . . the parts coloured in red are the problem areas i think though im slighty worried about the Graphics card as well.

Im thinking on getting the following :

upgrading RAM to : 6GB DDR2 Corsair memory
new processor : Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 LGA775 'Yorkfield' 2.66GHz 12MB-cache

Do you think this will resolve the problem or will the graphics card also need updating?

This is the link for the hardware requirements for the game : Age of Conan system requirements revealed

Appreciate some help on this guys am stuck for what to upgrade

It looks as though you already meet the recommended specs, but my thoughts are:
Only upgrade to 4gb, 6gb is overkill IMO
The CPU upgrade is a good choice
I would think the 7950 GX2 would be good, unless you are running at high resolutions
