[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 3167389, member: 20741"] Played it briefly last night on my new system. Essentially every feature on and maxed except water reflect/refract off and shadows one step back from max. Resolution was 1680x1050. Core system stats: Win XP MCE 2004, E6600, 2gig DDR2800, eVGA 7950gx2 in SLI mode. Latest nVidia GeForce drivers; NWN2 ver 1.02 Sound is Miles 2D with onboard NForce 590 sound. Results: DAMNED snappy. Whereas before with a Radeon x1600 Pro I had to reduce resolution greatly, turn down options and move the sliders so the camera was not so laggy, I now had to deliberately [I]increase [/I] lag to my camera by a LOT; otherwise, the camera became so twitchy it moved all over the place instantly. The complaints regarding poor performance on high end hardware do not appear justified in my case - not even close. Not too sure what the reported issues are stemming from. Drivers not updated perhaps lacking SLI settings for NWN2, or perhaps EAX sound issues for those with a Xi-fi? Or, might just be just the water reflect/refract issue. Whatever the case, the game looks very good and the performance is all you will ever need to be able to play at a [B]very[/B] comfortable frame rate. I'll take some fps meaurements tonight. [/QUOTE]
