I use the Radeon ATI XGE X1300 512MB card. It is attached to the AMD 64 3200+ and 1 gig RAM. I have all sliders to the right and all boxes checked with exception of fog, sunlight rays and water glare. I now get 20+ FPS on all screens with some tweeking. AA is set at 4X.

If you can get the 8800 go for it. If your stuck with the X1300 for a while, no worries, the game will look good with this card also.

The 8800 is on my list now
And im glad it will work fine on the X1300, i was worried that i would be playing a game with such amazing graphics but not be able to play it without all graphics set to low.

Well, again, if they can slip in the 8800 card, go for it!!! You will be ahead of the game down the road

In the meanwhile, check out what the MODS have cooked for this game.
Post something, you will not belive what kind of avatars you may get.
A good place to start is in General forums.
Feel free to roam anywhere...

Im Back again, ive ordrered my new rig, made a slight upgrade aswell
Ill now be running:

AMD ATHLON™ 64 X2 5600+ (2.8GHz) 2 x 1MB L2 Cache (Socket AM2)
4096 MB CORSAIR DDR2 800MHz
XP Home
320Gb Hard Drive
512MB GEFORCE 8600GT PCI Express + DVI + TV-OUT
Sound Blaster® Audigy® SE with 7.1 Surround Sound

Well i hope that enables me to play the game full throttle
Only downside is i have to wait another 2 weeks for it to be done oh well, worth the wait
Just thought id pop back and say hi
