      Sorry if this is wrong but as i have re-searched:

      Due to the intense 3D nature of Perfect World, you will require a 3D display card to play. However, the minimum requirements for the game are relatively low. An Internet connection of at least 56Kbps is required for play but it is not recommended as you may experience extreme lag or slow gameplay.

      Minimum System Requirements


      * Processor - Pentium 3 800 mhz
      * Memory - 256 RAM
      * Hard Disk Space - 2.5 GB
      * Video Card - 64 MB Video Card

      Recommended System Requirements



      * Processor - Pentium 4 1.8 Ghz
      * Memory - 512 RAM
      * Hard Disk Space - 2.5 GB
      * Video Card - 128 MB Video Card

      System requirements are here: http://pwi.perfectworld.com/download

      You may have to run the graphic settings and effects as OFF/unchecked, and you won't be able to multitask. You should have 1-2GB with that CPU and GPU setup that you have, instead of 896MB.

      So you might be able to run the game, but it may be a challenge.
      Do you need help learning about patching the game, installing it, changing antivirus/firewall settings, changing network settings, learn how to use a computer, keeping your PC maintained and more?

      896MB RAM is 256MB of 1GB dedicated to the IGP.

      Given that people can run the game with current Intel IGP...give it a shot. The Atom should give decent Athlon XP/P4 level performance (worst-case it should be better than a 1.8 P4), and the tweaked 9400--excuse me, "ION," aught to be lightyears above any Intel GMA.

      Our other players who have the ION/Atom config have better luck with 2GB of RAM. The nVidia chipset is a WAY better setup then with an Intel IGP for netbooks/nettops.

      The netbook platform is designed for low power in real world usage. You might be able to run the game ok, but we try to let you know you may encounter some hang ups.

      I am kinda looking forward to the ION2 b:victory
