I was just wondering, how many people out there can, or think they can run the M2TW settings on high or max (good enough to put some shadowing and antialiasing), with decent+ frames per second? If so, what graphics cards are you guys' using?

Once I get my new processor and another gig of RAM, I most definitely will be able to.
Edit: My graphics card is a dual radeon or something (Can't tell, cuz I'm on my laptop).

Its also important to note the resolution, my PC will have no issues at lower res but its struggling to hit 2 digit FPS at 1900*1200 with 2*AA & 8*AF in the demo.
maybe those guys should be doing something more useful...
hopefully I can on my new PC
AM2 socket 64bit 3500 AS ceramiqe (bought)
ASUS M2V-TVM mobo (bought)
2gb ddr2
320 Seagate HDD
some kind of graphics card I have an agp one now so i need to buy a pci-e card for the new pc probably a 6600gt or something till I can get something better.
i can't. i happened to stumble upon an amd athlon 64, 3400+, one gig of ram, radeon 9250 256mb(fell off the back of a truck), and i get lag on the default settings during the battle with the coyotes and eagles....
i am very concerned with how mp will pan out now, more than with rome. the graphics are nice, but i'd sacrifice them in mp for a decent 4v4 with old friends.
My computer ran just fine on full when playing Otumba, the largest battle in the demo. I don't even have an amazing computer, either.
Intel 2.8 GHz
512 RAM
256 MB Radeon X1300 Card
Medium I say.. 2.8 GHz outbeats the minmiunm, so does the GC, but RAM is at minmiun, so I say Medium.
It runs smoothly with everything to the max but shadows. I keep them to "Lowest" in order to have enough fps to enjoy zooming in and out without any floppy animations.
I guess by the end of the year i'll get one more g of ram, cause i'm not sure 1g is enough.

Your gpu is absolute total garbage. get a 6600gt or something.Originally Posted by t1master
I had a Athlon XP that was more than 4 years old so I upgraded to
Athlon 64 4200 X2
2 gigs Corsair 6400 pro ram
2x 80 gig striped hardrives
Gainward 7950Gt 512mb "Golden sample" video card
so I hope to be able to run close to max
I feel lucky that I will![]()

yes i am his card is very weak, noob lol :P
For just a few $$$ he could get a much better one.ts hard to believe it even has 256mb. I mean the core is too slow to make use of that. its like 3gb ram with a 200mhz fsb.
I was able to run the demo on max with out any problem but i think i wouldn't be able to do so on REALLY large battles
"Amazing" is a subjective term though, mate. What kind of computer do you have?Originally Posted by IPoseTheQuestionYouReturnTheAnswer
Don't get the 6600, I have a 7900 GT and for an extra £20 you get twice the power. I have 2gig's of RAM and a Conroe so I can run everything on full with no problems, however for some reason the sound is really messed up, I use onboard 5.1 sound and everytime I zoom, in instead of getting battle sounds in just messes up, v. annoying, but I cover it up by pumping out some tunes on my hifi so it doesn't matter but still its annoying.

Well, I have a Radeon 9250 as well. Before I attract sniggers in a thread devoted to showing off fancy GPUsOriginally Posted by ProudNerd
I bought it because I couldn't find anything much better to put into the AGP slot I had - my machine doesn't have PCI express.
But if someone wants to tell me there are much better graphics cards I could have, I'd be happy to hear about them.
Im playing the gold demo on all max settings, on a Radeon x1950xtx,AMD4200 dual core,2 gig DDR2 800 ram,without an lag.
What can i say,thta grafics looks unbelivable,just foto realistic,when u zoom in its like u watching a movie....ur own movie![]()
There are some gameplay issues that can be improved,but all in all..this game is just too beaty, not to be played![]()
Just ordered a new XFX Geforce 7950GT XT 512mb, should get around 130FPS on max.

I can run the demo maxxed out, including 4xFSAA and 16xAF at 1600x1200 at acceptable (i.e. high teens) framerates. Gonna play with different shadow options tonight to see if I can get up to around 30 without sacrificing image quality.

Any other AGP card in the world. The 9250 is just dire. Absolutely and in every single way.But if someone wants to tell me there are much better graphics cards I could have, I'd be happy to hear about them.
I suggest u to get the 7800GS. It is the most powerfull card u can get on AGP at the moment. Bought it this summer and very satisfied with the results.Originally Posted by Lord of the Isles

I really doubt that anyone on the planet will run the game with 38k men in custom battles....RTW has put even $1300 monster processors on their knees...
Now as far as fewer men with just the graphics settings maxed out I belive most GPUs over $200 will play the game maxed out...

to its knees at 1680x1050 4xFSAA 16xAF all settings on high. I got around 15 fps in the humongous custom battles (around 5000 soldiers). It was only when I turned the shadows down to low (shadows are still present for everything, but with reduced depth) that I got a minimum of 20 fps.
I know you're exaggerating, but I don't want you to be surprised when your card doesn't do even 50 fps at all max. Expect around-40 unless you are willing to turn some settings down.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Man I can't see many people getting what they wan't out of this game. It's just too darn expensive to run the way we wan't. I mean, I'm goin to need brand new comp to play it, that's insane for one game.

Well, I couldn't run the demo very well with my current graphic card. So I'm going to buy a new graphic card soon, probably a Geforce 7800.Originally Posted by PwnageBot2000
With that, I'll have...
Athlon 64 3400+ 2.41 GHz
1 Gig RAM
Geforce 7800GS (GT?)
So I'm hoping that with the graphic card upgrade, I'll be able to run it at near max settings @ 1024x768 resolution.![]()

I have a Radeon 9900 pro 128mb card. 2.66 Ghz and 1.5gb ram. Thats the best I can do with my stupid agp slots :( . I still think about upgrading this mofo when I get the money ( altho my dad will be furious lol).
I keep getting problems with this video card. Somehow it sometimes just puts out my pc. Also my tft-screen SUCKS.
I can play this game on medium smoothly.
