Hey, i havent got the game yet but i am planning to. The graphics card i have will run the game but not well so i am planning to get a new one, do you think the GeForce 6600oc would work?




I also have another question about making a warrior character do you have to have it with another class and if so what is the best warrior combo. and is it best to have warrior primary or secondary?

thanks in advance

1. Yes it will run good.
2. A popular choice for beginners is the paladin. A paladin build = Warrior/Monk.

graphics cards never really affect how the graphics look, just how quickly they can be rendered....

Yes, a better card can handle AA and AF turned on, so it runs faster on those, but its not the quality of graphics being improved here, just speed.

To expand on that, the card you have will work just fine... on low settings. It can't render fast enough on higher settings to make the game playable. A card like the 6600 can.
