Yes, more memory seems to be the most important asset.
I find using top view reduces bazaar lag considerably.

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.

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.

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.
