    Got atleast 756mb of RAM?(using XP) Then thats ok. KO likes about 512mb of dedicated RAM to run smooothly.
    A good video card will always help, and obviously you need to buy the biggest, fastest card you can afford.
    Also, strangely, KO likes a good processor too(if your comp supports overclocking, try to tweak both your processor and video card, if not, just O/C the video card. Do each one seperately, and note the improvements. Then try both together).

    Whats your budget, and what processor are you using?

    These days you need atleast 2gig RAM if you wanna play new games. If you got an old processer and not much ram, you still will experience low fps with a new graphics card. I recommend 2gig RAM, a nice Intel dual core processer and a 8800GT or 8800GTS512MB (2 of the best graphicscards imo)

    KO = CPU, g-card, ram

    Other games = G-card, ram, cpu

    hej is right, for some reason ko takes alot of power from my CPU (1 of them ) so getting a good CPU is important.

    btw, ko should run on 128mb graphic card, so i would go for 2 GB ram first, and then upgrade the graphic card

    dual is better imo, quadcore costs too much for the minor improvements.

    If you've got on-board graphics, your much better off at getting the video card.

    I asked on a other forum about hardware and they said that my computer couldn't handle new cards and shit so I had to buy few things in once like 2x 5xxmb ram and a graphic card. But if I only buy a graphic card would it work?
