I think it might is time to change my Graphic card.

Or what do you think, is there something else i should change?

I want to be able to play EQ2 at max settings.

I saw a pretty decent review of the 8800 GT. Newegg doesn't have any yet, but they're quite a bit cheaper than the other models and do almost as well in benchmarks.

I'll be picking up 2 when I build my new rig.

Only thing better than the 7900 atm is I believe the 8800. It's not gonna be cheap. But you have a better PC than I do already, and mine will be able to cope with any of the Unreal 3 engine games so unless you're really going for a superhero PC you don't need to upgrade it so much.

If i change to extreme Graphix which i want to play at it lags when there is much going on at my screen.

Spoke to a computer sales nerd today and he recommended 8800 GTS 640MB.

i want to play at max graphix so i get as much as possible out of EQ2 and my 7900 GT doesnt seems to be enough.

That setup seems pretty nice. Even "last year's" videocard should be no problem. You keep your software running pretty clean? Defrag and everything? You should be able to get damn close to max settings with that setup. Some of those higher settings are barely even noticable. On the other hand... if you're running Vista... I retract my statement.

If you've just got some extra cash to throw around, though, EQ2 is damn memory intensive, you could always throw another Gig of RAM in there. Even with XP I believe it would use that extra memory for background resource, thus freeing up room for EQ2.
