does this mean they are going to update the game to fully support windows 10 finally or something cuz i been crashing for years on windows 10 so this will be interesting to see how well that works out

i still have the feels that ncsoft isnt going to do anything to update or optimize the game any further its broken GG the game we enjoy isnt the same anymore on the rumors of Aion 2 who cares i bet any new Aion game in the works will definately have the crappiest support in 3 years after lauch if it last that long

I never crashed on windows 10. Many people use their potato pcs and simply put windows 10 because they feel the need to get better OS. Maybe itis not just a problem of OS but also of hardware problems people have.

Agreed. I use Windows 10 on my gamer and have been since it was released meaning I have a very early version, and I've never had Aion nor any other game crash on me. Is your machine custom built or store bought?

my pc is custom i dont buy store bought pc's i can only run the game with windows 8 compat without that checked aion hard crashes on me by booting me completely out to desktop this occured before and after xigncode was implemented and i had windows 8 but my motherboard was windows 10 compat too they forced everybody to upgrade so i was apart of that group of pc users i have a beastly amd cpu with a beastly 1660 nvidia card 16 gigs ram which i know i dont need that much but i have not tried one more thing every other game never crashes and final fantasy 14 never crashes just Aion the only thing i havent tried was try a diffrent ram manufacturer i used older cpu and newer and still had issues put in multiple support tickets and nothing helped so windows 8 compat is the only way i can run the game but however during siege time in crowded areas i sendlog but that doesnt bother me much cuz i think its the load

@Gracefullee-DN: From your explanation I see only one potential issue that may cause crashes. I'm an avid AMD user and I'm currently using an 8 core Black edition CPU mainly because I don't much care for the architecture of the new Ryzan AMD puts out. However when I first built my gamer I too used an nVida based over the top graphics card and despite my 32 gigs of DDR 4 RAM and a PC that is very overkill for older games such as Aion using the Cryengine especially I was plagued with crashes. After speaking with a few AMD techs and taking their advice to heart I switched out my nVida based graphics card for a AMD based Radeon card that cost in itself a small fortune and this ended my crashes for good. Apparently, AMD CPU's do not play too well under stressful situations with nVida based graphics cards. And this came from AMD techs.

If you are using one of the Ryzan CPU's it in itself might be causing your issue due to the GPU technology in it's architecture. I know several ppl who have had similar problems with these which is why even during my last motherboard upgrade I made sure my Black edition would still work on the new board (oh it's an Asus monster!, lol) because until AMD makes a new generation of Ryzan without the GPU bugs I'll stick with what works.

Don't get me wrong I swear by AMD CPU's in gaming machines and there is absolutely nothing wrong with nVida based graphics cards. In many ways I like their architecture much better than AMD based cards. And if I build a gaming PC for someone who wants an intel CPU in it such as the latest generation i7 (they run cooler than AMD's) I'll always go with an nVida based card. But in my personal gamer's I build myself and have been doing for a few years now I have found that when you use an AMD CPU it is always better to go with an AMD based card.

Well it's kinda sad that NCsoft wants or expect us to run the game on a version of windows that's not supported by microsoft for over 2 years now. For example from the Microsoft Website searching "End of Life" for Microsoft XP and do the same for Windows 7 and you'll find on the official microsoft website the following.

-----------------------------------
After 12 years, support for Windows XP ended April 8, 2014. Microsoft will no longer provide security updates or technical support for the Windows XP operating system. It is critical to migrate now to a modern operating system. The best way to migrate from Windows XP to Windows 10 is to buy a new device.
----------------------------------

And dang near end of support for Window 7 or shortly after Aion 7.0 will release

What kind of AMD CPU do you have? ie: how many cores, Is it a Black Edition like mine or one of the newer Ryzens, etc. If I know I can make a better recommendation on the best card for you. It would be helpful to know your motherboards ID number or Serial number and version number(if applicable) as well.

Any suggestions? Preferably a complete package(only a computer though, no peripherals) since i dont build custom computers myself anymore. Or maybe some cpu and gpu i should look for when buying a complete computer? My requirements are kinda low:

- I dont need highest fps, it would be fine if i could run it with like 30-45 fps in biggest raid crowds or open pvp without getting crippled by heavy freezes. It doesnt have to be in max graphic settings but atleast with aions advanced graphics mode and maybe custom/middle graphic settings and shift + f12 enabled.

What i learned since a long time now is that you neeever should buy apu/integrated cpu+gpu(because whatever cores and mhz it has, it always runs like shait/is unplayable) and need high single core performance(thread) for aion.

Anyway, if you want something optimized for aion, you need a custom build, if you already built pc in the past then you know how to do it, better do it yourself. Most of the prebuilt pc will be made to fit the newer games so they won't really go for specifics like I3-9350KF but for more generic cpus with more cores/threads like ryzen ones.

For Aion, you'll need a CPU with a good frequency (at least 3,7 GHz, as Aion run on only one core), but your GPU doesn't require to be last generation (his advice was good, you can go up to a GTX 1660, just be careful that your GPU has at least 2 fan on it). Don't take dual core (if that still exists) (reason below, same as for the RAM)

If you already have a tower, and you know how to play lego, it can be cheaper to just buy the parts you need (MB, CGU, CPU, RAM) and keep your SSD (if you have one), HDD, power supply unit. (and do a formatting, of course, as changement of parts will probably cause problems with drivers)

Previously i did the mistake buying a pc with apu knowing apu isnt the best thing but i somehow thought it would be enough for aion... well actually before 6.0 it was still okayish but with 6.0 performance went downhill everywhere.
