Will Guild Wars work on my computer?

[Magikarp]

Alright, I did a search on "System Requirements" for Guild Wars, and I managed to find one website that listed them.. but it said that they weren't really to sure how well it would perform.. so I thought I might ask you guys. Here's what I have:

• A 1.5 GhZ Pentium 4
• 384 MB of SDRAM
• An nVidia GeForce3 Video Card
• A 128MB Motherboard

I have a decent internet connection, so no worries there.

Oh, and, my computer can only work with DirectX up to 8.1.

easy way to find out: download the client (28kb). And check out the splash login screen (rendered in real time)

384 MB of SDRAM<--Not enough RAM
An nVidia GeForce3 Video Card<--Too old of a card
A 128MB Motherboard<--What the hell are you talking about? Motherboards don't store anything so you can't have a 128MB MoBo.

[deepred]Uh..I'm pretty sure when I was reading on the website for requirements, it said 256 MB of RAM. Maybe I'm wrong?

-edit

Minimum Requirements:
P3 800MHz, or equivalent
256MB RAM
2GB hard drive space
32MB 3D Card (Radeon 8500 or GeForce 3 or 4 MX)
Internet connection[/deepred]

Okay, my friends comp runs it, so yes ( end story ) BUT there will prolly be a little lag. ( choppyness )

You're correct, those requirements will run the game, but very poorly. You can try if you'd like, but from friend's experiences, that isn't enough.

[deepred]Ahh gotcha sir. Yes, I'd imagine it would lag.[/deepred]
