battlefield 2 runs perfectly on my 2.8ghz, 1gb ram, geforce 6600gt oc.

my friend has it running smooth as silk on a 3ghz with 512mb ram, and a ati 9600se.

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.

well like i said, with how cheap it is now it doesnt matter how much you put it in. Just saying, its overkill. even for photoshop.

ehhh Overkill.........I can't think of that word when upgrading my PC

it is my 2nd in Command to my soon to be PS3.

my ps3 and pc will soon be 1. got a widescreen LCD for christmas, (got it for myself for christmas actually. lol) but it wants me to run every game in 1440x900 resolution now. which actually i see a increase in FPS from games i used to run in 1024x768... i thought i'd see a lower frame rate going to a higher res. odd i think. amazing how amazing games look in this resolution on a LCD tho.

been tryin out Quake 3, UT2004, HL2/CSS, (and somewhat battlefield 2 since it doesnt fully support wide) and just soooo much detail in them without adjusting any graphic settings other then resolution.

cant wait to plug my PS3 into it and play thoes games on it too.

call this overkill but I'm planning to get an HP F2105 which is a 21" HD Monitor... lol

all computer monitors are technically HD. im assuming tho you mean HD TV / PC montor in 1. where it has the plugs for DVD players, games, Cable TV and such.

Which is nice. i like having the option to use it as a HDTV or a PC montor.
mine has a TV card i put in the PC that i can get HDTV on. it works while its by the computer, but a HDTV/monitor can be taken away from the pc and still used.


my friend went out and bought himself a 42inch Plasma HDTV, im gunna show him how to hook his PC into that so he can play some games on it.
