How long does it take your PC to launch Aion?

Starting from double clicking the Aion icon, for my PC it takes about 2 minutes

my pc specs are:
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1
Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 260 Processor (2 CPUs), ~3.2GHz
GFX Card name: AMD Radeon HD 6570
GEIL DDR RAM 2GB
Core Speed: 803.70MHz
Motherboard - AsRock


planning to upgrade.

Does it really take 2 mins to load or is it faster on better pcs?

3:34pm

 

I get to enjoy the NCSOFT loading screen for about 4-6min XD
takes longer if I keep tabbing

 

1 minute the first time, then 25-30 seconds. My pc is similar to yours, but i have 6gb of ram.

 

It's not just about the amount of ram, but also about the CL (CAS Latency) of the ram, which is basically the delay in processor cycles before the processor can load data from the RAM (if data loads sequentially then the delay becomes insgnificant after the first address loaded). Also depends on your harddrive speed, which is 7200rpm (rounds per minute) for me, slower ones are 5600rpm, fastest desktop HDDs are 10,000rpm. SSD will be able to load the game much faster. Data fragmentation also makes a difference.

Anyways think you guys really shouldn't ignore the harddrive since the game is like 22gb or so by now.

 

I got about 30sec-1 minute logging in first time, and i have :
Sempron x2
4 GB RAM
GeForce 9600GT
Win 7
...So buy more RAM and u got less than minute, HDD is important too but i think he allready have 7200rpm;] maybe take off your 2 GB ram and buy 4 gb 1333mhz ;]

 

it depends on ur motherboard too if ur motherboard can handle more than 2GB of ram.it will be a waste of money buying a 4GB ram or higher.

 

it takes me about 1-2 minutes the first time

depends on how long i have the pc open.

 

Funny ! Never thought about counting how much time it needs to load Aion. Anyhow , i have to wait for 55 seconds and most of the time it seems an eternity .

Intel 320 80gb ssd
I7 920 4.0ghz
6Gb of Ram

Interesting thread ;p

 

Funny idea, here are my results (I don't take any personal responsibility for possible divergencies due to my slow-poke reaction when hitting the stopwatch..)

first time an eternity of 52 seconds,
3 times after 32/30/33 seconds

i7 3770k at 4.0 ghz
32gb ram
Samsung SSD 830 pro 256gb
AMD Radeon 7970

Weird enough for some reasons my notebook does it in...
first time: 47s
3 times after: 29s/30s/30s

i5 3317U at 1.7ghz
8gb ram
Intel SSD 330 120gb
Nvidia Geforce GT 640M

guess it's due to the better overall setup of the notebook xD

 

2-4 mins ..

8GB Ram (2x 4GB CL11)
Nvidia Geforce GTX 670M
750GB 5400RPM HDD

First: 59secs
Second: 38secs

Laptop#2

4GB Ram (2x 2GB CL9)
Nvidia Geforce 310M
500GB 5400RPM HDD

First: 2mins 24secs
Second: 1min 40secs

 

Weak..........I"ve never counted and don't plan to it would probably depress me.

 

Thanks for all the answers. Kewl.

 

okay so edit breaks things. All of mine were first tests. No initial testing afterwords, though results'd vary also.

49 w/ gamez launcher
36 w/ NA retail 64 bit client.

AMD Phenom II 965 Deneb Edition Quad Core 3.4ghz
8gb DDR3 (4x 2gb DDR3 1333) Gskill Memory
2gb ATI Radeon HD 6670
250GB SATA HD 7200RPM

 

1 minute 30 seconds +- right after computer start, later 40 seconds - 1 minute

 

Lol I don't think there is anyone who's motherboard can't handle more than 2gb of RAM. Seriously, they stopped making those like 10 years ago.

 

OH sorry. im not an IT or computer related student. im at business course. that idea was taken from the alternative class that i attend last month.

 

Don't have to study it to look around you. Most people had 4gb for years now, these days even laptop standards are 8-16gb, desktop people get even more.

 

i am not interested of overseeing computers. Im mostly a fan of counting money. :tongue:
