The M2TW hardware thread: please post all hardware queries here

[Worldbeing]

Hey
Just got M2TW after becoming totally hooked on Rome. But it's really slow (frame a second or less) even on the lowest settings.
Processor and memory are OK: Core 2 Duo, 2x 1.86GHz and 2GB RAM
I now suspect it's my excuse for a graphics card, the Intel GMA X3100.
Is it worth persevering with trying to run M2 on this machine?

It really is the graphics card, the rest is fine. GMA is not very suitable for games. If you can get a better one, from GForce or ATI, I suggest to do it.
