battlefield 2 runs fine on many systems. it has its share of problems, but not being able to run good isnt really one of them.
Btw kyuzo... i know ram is cheap and all... but your games arent even gunna use the full 2gb of ram.. let alone even touch 4gb.. makes the system sound cool. but i highly doubt theres anything your doing that will notice a difference from 2gb to 4gb. but i guess the days of caring about that are over with how cheap ram is now.. heh. oh well. cram away  |
hehe I never said i was cramming RAM into my system for games
I like to be prepared for whatever. I like to know that my setup will get me through PC games well past a generation from now.
What I like to use the RAM for is my Photoshop. I design poster prints for my room all the time, and they are huge... usually I'm designing i a 1280x1024 resolution and viewing the canvas at 33% so I don't want any type of slowness when I'm designing. A lot of times I also don't close Photoshop/Flash... I leave them running. In all I have about 6 design programs open at once all the time I'm on the computer.
Games also have recommended setups and not just minimums... for example FEAR will run smooth on a 512, 2.5GHz setup but the recommendations are 3GHz, and 1GB RAM. Maybe not much of a difference, but it's always fun to listen to recommended items.
