I'm not sure about the ATI Radeon, but I know the GeForce 5 FX requires a more powerful power supply than the average video card. So keep that in mind when building your system, you might need a larger power supply or else the system shuts itself off and has other problems. My father found this out the hard way when he ordered a new PC from HP. They put in the GeForce 5 but did not increase the power supply so he had to go buy a new power supply in order for his computer to work.

My system specs are a Pentium 4 1.8Ghz and a 400mhz FSB with 1024MB of RAM and a 128MB ATI Radeon 9200 video card. It seemed to run the beta version of EQ2 quite well with minimal lag in most cases, so if you're system is commensurate to that, you shouldn't have a problem.
I am, however, building a new system that will be a Pentium 4 2.4Ghz and a 533mhz FSB with 1024MB of RAM and a 256MB ATI Radeon 9600XT video card. I expect good things from it when I'm done. I think EQ2 should run quite nicely on it.
