Default 32mb video card...

I've been debating for a while whether or not to get Guild Wars...yet even though I meet the minimum requirements (ugh) I'd still like to see how it would look like with a 32mb video card...

will someone please kindly link me to a screen shot? opinions also would be appreciated. thanks

Hi

A lot of it depends on your processor as well. However I do know the game runs fine in a 32mb card.

It's not a question of how it looks, it more a question of playability. even on 32mb you can ramp all setting up. however it will be around 0.5fps. with a 32mb card you would need most settings on minimum. UNless you had a 2-3gig CPU. Also haveing over 512mb of ram helps.

So it won't look amasing if you wnat to play the game.

It doesn't look amazing, but I have a 32 MB card, it looks fine to me.

I don't have a screenshot since I'm not on that computer though.

CPU is overrated...System RAM + GPU RAM is where it's at for gaming. if you've got enough memory between your System RAM and your GPU RAM to you don't need a super fast CPU
