So I recently built myself a home theatre PC using an Ivy Bridge I3-3225 processor which provides HD 4000 integrated graphics. I loaded up EQ2 on the system to see how it would run. To my surprise, I was able to play both while soloing and while in group. I did have to turn graphics quality way down to high performance, but still i was happy that it was playable at a 1080p resolution. I would probably spring for a graphics card if this were going my main EQ2 system, but if one is willing to give up some of the eye candy, HD4000 is quite playable. The recently released new Haswell processors will offer even higher levels of integrated graphics performance. I hope this a useful data point for people considering running EQ2 on systems without dedicated graphics cards. Processor: I3-3225. 3.3GHz Memory: 8GB Storage: 128Gb SSD. +. 4TB HD OS: Windows 7 64bit
