    Hi there!

    anybody can guess how the 8600MGT will run RTW? and Medieval 2Total war?

    I would be very happy if i could get nice fps at highest graphics and 1024x768on Rome, and maybe same configuration in Medieval.

    What do you think?

    BTW, have you heard about new History Chanel: great batttles of rome?

    I think it'll fun fine.. RTW isn't all that new, and to begin with I don't remember it being a very graphic instensive game.

    Should run it absolutely fine, even at highest settings I think. When I get my new laptop I'll try it with max setting and huge unit sizes...

    MII:TW should run fine, and RTW should run maxed out easily.

    ^ I really doubt that.

    Unless the latest patch produced 30-40% performance gains.
