  • Summary: Today we're going to talk about the system requirements of Aion. Yup, I do know Aion is still not available in western countries yet :p. But I think we can make some preparations to get our PC ready for the game. And we particularly made a review for you based on the data collected from Chinese version of Aion:

Test Description

The gaming smoothness varies depending on Internet connection speed, concurrent users and server's quality and other factors. To minimize such influences, we have selected a fixed place to do this test.

Each scene is different in complexity. And the above screenshot was captured with all effects set to high.

The graphics card performance was tested at 1920X1080,1680X102 and 1440X900 resolution respectively with Vsync being off. And the following are the average FPS at 1920X1080,1680X102 and 1440X900 resolution.

(Note: since there are lots of gamers playing in the CBT, it's understandable that the server is crowed. Because the Internet connection speed has considerable influence on the running of an online game, the number of frames per second will inevitably have some fluctuations. So, 5-frame error is allowable)
