System Requirements

[ahall5962]

Hey all,

I’m wanting to return to EQ, it’s been about 15 years or so. I’m curious about what kinda of laptop I’d need to run this game. My old windows laptop crapped out and now I have a Mac. Seems like a lot of hoops to jump through with a Mac, so considering buying a new windows laptop.

Any suggestions or advice? This and streaming would be all I use this for.

Thank you!

I ran P99 on a netbook about 8 years ago.. it was designed for emails/Microsoft office/browsing the internet. The only slowdown was raiding Plane of Hate with 40-50 people and it was still manageable.

If an old netbook can run it (win 8) I'm sure any laptop you buy can cope. If the laptop is just for P99 I'd recommend against a new one unless you want it for more demanding stuff as well or just have the cash to splash.

Google everquest titanium system requirements? Hard to find something as bad as even the recommended specs. Your streaming software probably has higher requirements.

I played for years with 256 onboard virtual vram but like Swish said; raiding is choppy. 1GB video card was enough to pack 300 players running around on my screen with max spell particles at 2k resolution. It was like $120 but used my cute-pon and got it for freezies [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

With that new fix for high end gear you probably can't go wrong with any rig that can stream at a quality that most people can stand to watch.
