Went shopping yesterday, and found my dream graphics card - the Elsa Gladiac 920 as I originally wanted. It is a Geforce 3 card, and has loads of impressive sounding numbers. It is bundled with a specially enhanced version of Giants: Citizen Kabuto - is this game any good? (Not that I bought it for the game  but it could be a bonus if it is worth playing)
It did cost me more than a weeks take home pay though. I felt a bit faint afterwards! Upgrade at the weekend - Abit motherboard, 1.1Gb Athlon processor, 256 Mb RAM and of course my lovely shiny graphics card.
So hopefully TOB won't be choppy like it is at the moment, and I might actually be able to run Arcanum....
So now I can put myself forward for a BGII/TOB multi without worrying that my PC will ruin it - it currently takes over 3 minutes to load a new location *groan* and the lag is incredible!

Please tell us if Giants is a good game, I've considered buying it myself, as for Arcanum running smoothly, I've got 950 Mhz processor(Don't ask), a Geforce 2 MX and 128 Mb RAM(Or more, I can never remember.) and on my comp Arcanum sometimes hangs for 5 seconds or something like that, location loadtimes aren't too bad though.
