I LOVE this machine it can play anything at any rez very well. Call of Duty, Fear, BF2, doesnt seem to matter.
BUT Everquest II???? Not so much.
This is totally a gaming rig, Nothing on this computer but Windows XP Pro with service pak 2 and games. All drivers updated as much as they can be. And to be totally honest, Everquest II does not handle we well at. And all if it comes from the partical effects that Sony has for this game. All the bloom effects, and the cloud looking spells just dont cut it. They kill our performance and honestly don't look all that good.
I have bugged Sony a few times asking if they ever were going to revisit this issue. Maybe someday they will. Hoping they make them more managable.

I have a very similar spec, just overclocked more and I can run fine on Extreme Quality with nothing modified on raids. However I have to turn the particle effects off as you can't see anything at all when raiding with them all on though..
8800's are fine with EQ2, I don't know what people do with theres...
