Hey Everyone,

I am thinking of upgrading my system after 5 years great use. My current system is a P4 2.4 GHz, with 1G DDR RAM and a 128 ATI 9800 Video card. The purpose of doing this is to play Warhammer Online: the Age of Reckoning (specs http://herald.warhammeronline.com/warherald/NewsArticle.war?id=168). I am looking at this package from MDG (http://www.mdgistore.com/product_info.php/cPath/64/products_id/139). I just have some worries about the on board video card with cooling and if it shares memory. Also is it possible to turn off the on board video if I buy a new video card in a year or 2? Do you think this package will work?

Any advice would be welcome in helping me make my decision.

Have a great day, and thank you.

I think it will struggle with WAR. You should at least pick up a video card with that package. What's your budget you are working with?
