I have a P4 2,53 GH with 533 MHZ buss and 512MEG 333MHZ DDR memory, Geforce Ti4200 128 mgb memory I still get lagg as HELL in bazaar with 200 peps or more. Only thing that will help there in my opinion would me more memory so I could load all shiat in memory instead of swapping from disk. Look at the new feature how much memory EQ actually takes. I will take ALL available memory if it can.

I am running EverQuest on a PIII 800mhz with 1GB of RAM and a ATI Radeon 128MB 4X AGP video card.    I never saw any lag on my system pre-Luclin. It's only when they souped up the game engine for better graphics that my system started lagging. Thus the upgrade to more RAM and a better video card. Now I run on a cable modem. There's virtually no lag on zones that existed prior to Luclin. There is still lag on Luclin, but I can turn the clip plane down to nil and turn off spell effects (which are annoying anyway) and get almost no lag at all.   However, same system specs with a 64MB video card and was getting major lag in Bazaar. Now it's pretty smoothe. I plan on upgrading the processor to a 1Ghz or better next month so I am sure even Bazaar will be fine.

I still contend that a higher end video card can compensate for a low end processor. But when you've got both together, EQ should be flawless.

I'm also running Win ME with 384 megs of ram. It's slowing down now, due to the fact that my processor is just a Celeron 400 and is 3 years old (time for an upgrade) but ME has done fine. I can't remember the last time I got the blue screen of death. I might eventually upgrade to XP Pro (Home edition doesn't play games very well), but ME is doing just fine for me now.
