<p>Greetings all,</p><p>I have been looking at the list of supported video cards for the game and I am wondering if anyone has any experiance with the following:</p><p><a href="http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Asus+-+NVIDIA+GeForce+8400+GS+512MB+DDR2+PCI+Express+Gra phics+Card/9652935.p?id=1218138182700&skuId=9652935">NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS 512MB DDR2 PCI Express Graphics Card</a></p><p>I have an Emachines ET1161-07 that I am currently running EQ2 on with the onboard graphics, but I am hoping this will give me a bit better graphics.  The computer has the following stats:</p><p>Athlon x2 4050e Processor</p><p>nVidia Geforce 6150 integrated video</p><p>3 gig DDR2 ram</p><p>I have an open PCI Express slot to use, and if I am reading the list of supported cards correctly this one should work.</p><p>Hints or suggestions would be appreciated.</p>

<p>If you are looking for a new card on an extremely tight budget .. get this from newegg.com</p><p><a href="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121377&cm_re=hd5450-_-14-121-377-_-Product" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...1-377-_-Product</a></p><p>It's much faster and more powerful than the 8400 gs and it supports dx 11 .. not that it really matters for eq2 and I know the eq2 engine is very cpu dependant but this card is a much better bang for your buck .. you also get a 10.00 mail in rebate and its only 5.99 to ship</p>
