and so on
I am asking you that becous in this forum a have read that
there is a person who with
p3 500Mhz
192 Mb Ram
and Radeon 9000 (not sure abou the last)
can run RTW
I suppose thati have to upgrade at least ny video card (to GeForce 5200 maybe) to run RTW, but will be that enough.
I know that official requarements are:
CPU: above 1 Ghz
RAM: 256 MB
VIDEO: 64 MB video card Directx9.0 compatible
and so on

Thats me P3-500mhz 192 ram and 64mb video card, it works no lag on low setting and units large and detail med. I can have about 2700 people without lag. (except flaming arrows, bad, VERY bad...)

EDIT**** You _Need_ a better video card, at least a 64, and 128's are quite popluler now, mines a 64, I dunno, the game runs well on my computer, I didnt expect it to run well at all.

Thank you all for replays. I knew what the result should be but there was a little hope left about running RTW on my old PC. NOT ANY MORE :(
It seem sthat i have to upgrade and better buy a new PC as I was thinking but it will take at least half year to get the money :((
Until then I will only listen to RTW, and play the good old MTW

Thanks again

I suppose that if i buy a better video card like GeForce 5200 128 bit 64/128Mb i wil still have problem with running RTW in this PC. The fps ratio will be bad nad the quality poor. am i right?

yeah dont spend anymore money on your old pc mate it will be a waste, keep your Money towards a newer one...realy i know how you feel but dont chuck good money away.....i often look in the papers and see good second hand pc which will run RTW at a decent price.....good luck.
