This is the first year I can say "I actually have enough Power in my computer to play any game I want with no slow down what so ever".
So I loaded NWN2 in my old comp and its only a 2.2Ghz Pent 4 with 750 in Ram and OH MY GOD The Lag is insane and thats while NOT on line. I played for about 20 min on the old system and couldn't take it anymore then I read this about the Beta 1.03 and tried it. WOW what a difference, its still no where near the 3.8 Ghz 4Gig Ram Duel core in my new comp but the Game is alot smooooother in the old comp with the beta Patch loaded.
I didn't bother with the Beta Patch in my Duel Core I just never had any real problems from day (1).
I guess that it would be a bit of a Knife in Obsidians Back for me to say they made a game designed just for the Highest of High end Computers with little or no reguard for 90% of our gameing communiety. IS this ATARIs' fault?
For the High end comps its a fantastic fun adventure that really has a feel of the Old Baldur's Gate Team play that flows with fast load times and excelent Graphics. (I did load the first Patch & I click auto patch at every start up)

For the just over the minimun Req PC its a hacky slow glitchy game that can tend to really piss you off with what seems like forever load times just going into a building let alone trying to play thru a whole mission.
The Beta 1.03 patch does help alot but I'll wait until the full 1.03 comes out before loading it on my high end Comp.
I loaded it on the old comp and now the game is at least enjoyable and does help the frame rate enough to turn up the graphics card shader settings enough to see a better view of the world around me.

Make sure to make a copy of the load and unload beta files in case it does cause you problems.
