1 ghz/512 MB RAM enough for iChat?

Question

1 ghz/512 MB RAM enough for iChat?

Will a 1 ghz/512 MB RAM eMac run iChat AV smoothly and without glitches/really slow frame rate, or is something more powerful needed? I know it's above the minimum spec for iChat but I want it to work WELL!!

Many thanks.

G5 Powermac Dual 2 gHz, 3GB RAM, Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Hey thanks Tony. Actually I'm looking for a machine for my mum and there are a few on eBay so I won't be able to test them, but thanks for your offer!
