Hello..


I am comming back to the game after a 3 year hiatus and I need a pc system. What is min requirements to be able to run 2 accounts and insure there is no lag during large battles all while running at full graphics potential?


I was thinking something along the lines of this:

I don't think you'll make it with that system posted above.
Whatever you get, make sure it has a very good video card and the system has lots of RAM.

SYX SG-103 Gaming PC - Intel Core i7 2600 3.4 GHz, Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64 Bit, 1GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti, 8GB DDR3, 1TB 7200rpm HDD, USB 3.0, FREE Shogun 2 Total War download!

There are better systems and better video cards but overall (and for the price) that is a solid system for playing DAoC.

The game engine is over 5 years old.

If you have a dedicated graphics card, and your computer can handle vista/win7 then you will run DAoC fine.

My old system, I had a hard time watching 1080p videos, but had an easier time against the little lag I got in daoc.
