I am thinking about buying a new computer and want to know if it will handle the game. My old computer lagged and froze so often I really want a new one that will run smoothly for a change. This computer is an HP Pavilion s5-1010 Desktop. It has 3 GB RAM, 750 GB Harddrive with an Intel GMA X4500 integrated it has
Intel Pentium Processor E6700 (3.2GHz)I hope someone can help me out.

    That will work great with PWI, with very little lag. Lag is more of a network thing, but your new computer should handle it very well, congrats by the way ^^.

    Just don't expect west adc to be much better. Even on my unlocked i7 with an overclocked 460, I get lag from time to time. It's prolly server tho.

    The client and game engine is so old, that you will always lag a little, in most parts of the game (graphical lag). Angelica game engine, and the client is from 2005. They didn't have much of anything beyond 1.5GHz max, back then. The graphic cards back then we're much less "hardcore", than the current ones.

    What's the specs on the graphics card?

    And yeah PWI isn't really that graphics intensive. I can play max settings on everything @ 1680x1450 res with dual 2.9GHz and a 9600GT (512mb GPU). Standard stuff for today really.
