i have a pentium core duo 2.8 ghz , nvidea 8800 gts video card and 4 gb ram pc running on windows xp . i would say that qualifies it as a mid range pc these days . its also well above the required specs . i would be interested to see how well age of conan runs for those of you with similar mid range machine . even after the latest patch i m still having lots of performance issues . yes i ve defragged , turned off all ofther programs running in the background , fiddled with the in game graphics options , made sure my graphics card is running properly and got the latest drivers .i still cant play the game well enough for my liking even on the low settings . i m playing a lot of new games like stalker on maximum settings so there is nt anything wrong with my rig .
also i ve several friends reporting similar issues . i know plenty in these forums are saying it runs well but most seam to be playing on high spec gaming machines . which i guess is what you d expect in a gaming forum really .
dont get me wrong . i m not trolling i think conan looks like a great game . if only it ran well enough on my system to play it .

i have the same pc as you but i got vista and i run 40 fps on med settings in aoc after this last patch,
You shouldn't worry. You'll definately be able to play it on good settings with a good framerate.
AMD5200+ 2.7ghz, 8600gt 512mb, 4gb of ram 160gb HD and runs fine especially after patch am running on med settings at around 25-30 fps in tortage and 30+ elsewhere so yeah it seems to run good for me.
Todays patch helped me a TON.
Duo intel 6320(1.86 Ghz)
2 Gm ram vista 32
8600 Gt 256 Mb ram.
Now i load a lot faster and i can run around in tortage with very little HD load and stalls.
Still play on low though because i play on 22" in 1650x1080 but getting FPS from 25-70 depending where i am in the game so all is good and it looks just fine on low.

Runs fine on low to medium settings..
amd 4000+ (single core), 2 gb ram, ATI 1900 XTX
Runs as smooth as a baby's butt (on low settings).
Geforce 9600 gt, 3 gb ram 800mhz and core duo 3.0 playing on high settings without bloom AA and shadows getting upto 60 fps , never went down 25. This is however in White Sands so no clue how my fps will be in a super crowded city.
Ran fine on my system, swapped one of the 512 ram sticks with a 1gig and dropped in a 512mb 8600 vid card. Ran pretty damn good IMHO. Only ever crashed once, and never visually lagged due to strain on the system. Most of the time my issues was caused by the debugger in the background.
(edit, running on low settings, tried on medium settings but the debugger in the background was eating up to many system resources otherwise probably would've been good)

Actually more of a low than a mid range.
Playing on low with 3.5km visibility range. 20-40fps and sometimes freezes for a second or two while loading textures.
Looks a bit worse than Oblivion doeson my PC.
Oh yeah, sound settings on maximum. At least i get to listen to how it should sound like :P
It is running very well for me on meduim after the patch. Prior to that I could run it but only on low settings with a very limited viewing distance. So limited I found myself running up on mobs before I could see them.

I havn't had the crashing mid game that others have experienced. Both the client and their servers have been very stable for me.

I'm on 1100something x 800something resolution though, most modern TFT screens go considerably higher.
