Hey everyone. My friends are begging me to get GW with them, but my main computer is a mac. I have an old PC, and my friend told me he'd give me a Geforce FX 5200 card if I play with them. The specs of the PC are as follows:

1Ghz AMD Athlon
Geforce FX 5200 w/ 128mb vram
128mb ram (would upgrade to 512)

What kind of results can I expect with this machine? I'm hoping that with the memory upgrade I'll be able to get a steady 30fps. What do you guys think?

(BTW, just for fun I tried the beta tonight with my TNT2 videocard and 128mb ram and it was a slideshow at first but it became slightly playable. I actually killed some worms and played for a little bit, but there were some crazy video glitches, made me think I was on shrooms

there are sveral people with 5200 cards and similar specs who are very happy with the results

the 512 mb ram would do fine the rest exceed the recommended specs

Intel Pentium?? III 1GHz or equivalent
512 MB RAM
CD-ROM Drive
2 GB Available HDD Space
ATI Radeon 9000 or GeForce 4 Ti Series Video Card
