I installed the new GT740 last night and have been playing with it all day today. I ran a couple other online games at max resolution with no problems before I switched over to Archeage. I have decided I have 2 obstacles left. #1- my machine is aging and might be time to re-purpose it for other uses. #2- My internet is too slow (I can only get 1 MB sec service here.)

Thanks for all your help!
