The Official "How well/will my computer run BF2?" thread

[Rico]

So far we know the minimum specification to be as follows:

1.7 Ghz CPU
512 Megabytes of RAM
128 MB video card (must support 1.4 shaders)

It would be safe then to assume that to run the game well (on medium-high settings), you will want atleast the following:

2.5 Ghz CPU
1 Gigabytes of RAM
256 MB video card (must support 1.4 shaders)

[Catch-22]

[Killj00]

i know i can run my comp on extreme settings lol :)
setting it to 4X AA/ 8X AF
P4 550 (3.4ghz)
Geil Ultra X 1GB DDR 400 CL2 (dual channel mode, 512 by 2)
HIS X850 XT @ default
can't be bothered to type up my whole system, but those are mainly the relevant parts :)

[yeoldehomer]

Thanks Rico,
What would we do without you :)

[Stadler]

Update:

In the part 2 developer interview movie, Scott Evans says that If you want to Be able to "set" everything on high. to have at least 1 gig of RAM and a 3.0ghz processor along with a 256 card.

[StaR]

^^ as stadler said, but if you listen closes he said 1gig or more, so 2gig would be nice.

As just for 'ALL on LOW'. This wouldnt mean you could have a half decent pc and a ok ish card. Remember all the latest games are requiring section things that only the new grahpics cards or grahpics drivers can handle. Such as certain shader version. Please be aware of this and make sure you're grahpics card is updated !!

what if i hade

2.0 ghz
769mb of ram
ATI RADEON 9000 Pro 128M

will that be in the good side or baddd

Update:

1GB Ram - Check ;)
P4 3.0GHz - Check ;)
256MB GFX - D'oh! :hmm:

Actually he says P4 3.0 GHz, Geforce FX or equivalent or higher with a couple of gigs of ram.

[yeoldehomer]

I think that 1024mb RAM would be sufficient, there aren't a whole lot of people out there with more that 1gig of RAM. I remember reading on one of these threads that more that 1gig would actually slow the game down. However, Scott Evans is the producer so i'd take his word.

[G.Hussain]

hello people
sorry, but i read an interview before where one of the developers said that the requirements will be equal to or slightly greater than BF:Vietnam

my computer system is:
1.7 GHz AMD Athlon XP+2000
Geforce FX 5700 LE 128 mb
512 MB RAM

does this look great
note: i run BF: Vietnam on the maximum high graphics.and it runs well without any problems at all :D

[yeoldehomer]

They did origionally say that the game would use the same or more than BF:V, but as time goes on this is seeming less possible. Especially seeing as your system has the minimum requirements for BF:2. This doesnt look great at all. If you are going to upgrade anything do it in this order

1. Video Card
2. Processor
3. RAM

[G.Hussain]

thanks alot :D
but i think i will wait for the demo before upgrading! ;)

[ColdDeath]

what would the AMD specs be since he said P4 at 3.0ghz. the chips are different so would any one like to make a comparison.
i got
amd2800+ oc to 2.16ghz
ati 9800 pro 128mb oc
and 2x512 xms ram
i know my ram is fine im thinking of getting a new pc anyways for a nice pci exspress x850xt PE and a better 939 chip obviously but i figure ill be able to run med/high with less environmental effects turned up but still visually nice. the Processor if the only thing im just curious about compared to a pentium....blah :)

[bballplayafors]

Hey I just got a Geforce 6600 GT graphics card. It is a 128 bit graphics card is this the same as 128 MB or not? The recommended settings for BF2 says 256 MB graphics card, so I'm wondering if this was a poor choice. The card runs fine on other games, but I want it to last too. Will it being only a 128 bit card really hurt me in the long run? I read about how good it was online and my computer guy recommended it, so I hope I didn't waste my money upgrading from an FX5200.

[yeoldehomer]

Bballplayafors
My old 9600 was 256MB but only had 128bit. So it's possible that your card is 256mb. I'd say that it would almost 100% be worth an upgrade from a 5200.

ColdDeath
I'm not too sure about the CPU, however that x850xt PE is sounding very nice :D. Your RAM would be sufficient for BF:2 so i wouldnt bother upgrading that if it will save you some money.

[yeoldehomer]

thanks alot :D
but i think i will wait for the demo before upgrading! ;)

Good choice :), hope it goes well for you ;)

[bballplayafors]

Thanks man

[Dizz1e]

Yea 2.5ghz on intels maybe, a AMD 3200+ 64 bit is only 2ghz but would be great for battlefield 2, Personally I think anyone over 2ghz 64bit AMD will be able to run BF2 on high..

P.S. Thanks rico for finally making an official thread so hopefully this will put an end to all the "Will my comp run it?" threads...

[BigBadBob]

I have to upgrade then. I have a AthlonXP 2400+, 1gb RAM, Radeon 9800 Pro.

Looking at upgrading my cpu soon. Hopefully i'll be all right on the others.

[G.Hussain]

Good choice , hope it goes well for you
thanks man
but i guess i cant wait till that happens
guys i am upgrading!!!! traaaaaaaaa :D

now i have:
AMD Athlon XP +2000 2Ghz "over clocked :evil: "
Geforce FX 5700LE 128mb "bought one week ago :cry: "
1*512mb + 1*128mb RAM sticks :eek:
a bad low end mother board "Mercury"<<<don even try :mad:

what iam going to buy:
Intel Pentium4, 3Ghz :evil:
Intel Motherboard 865 :laugh:
another 512mb stick to go with the previous one = 1 gigabyte ram total
+++++++++++
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............ :hmm:

the peoblem is my stupid friend cant find a good card he said the best he has is "Geforce FX 5200 256mb"... i think its bad except for the memory size.. he said he will check other people for other greater cards.....

so what do you suggest "keeping in mind that i want to play BF2 on high graphics" :rolleyes: :D

[G.Hussain]

I have to upgrade then. I have a AthlonXP 2400+, 1gb RAM, Radeon 9800 Pro.

good that you decided to upgrade i know how hard it is to feel that your pc is starting to be "A classic piece of furniture" same with me here :rolleyes: :D

i suggest you the following since i have upgraded my sytem two times in less than a year.

* depnd on your self :evil:
* avoid ATI cards as possible they are stupid from my usage for more than years before finally movng to nVidia
* balance your system, i mean dont put a great Graphics card on a bad mother board
* if you can afford a P4 cpu i suggest it.


finally
i wish you good luck :rolleyes:

[imported_Foxen]

I have:

AMD Athlon 64 3400+ 2.4 GHz
3 x 512 MB DDR RAM 400 MHz CL2.5
GeForce 6800GT 256 MB

Can I run this game on highest settings, including sound and maximum FSAA? What will my FPS be?

[bballplayafors]

In reply to #20
I would get the 6800 GT graphics card from nVidia. You can overclock it to make it perform like the 6800 Ultra, nVidia's best graphics card right now. You can find it for about $325-$400 if you shop well. If you're really rich either get the 6800 Ultra Special Editon, like $500 at least. Or you could wait for nVidia's new line of cards. If you can't afford the 6800 Gt, do what I did get the 6600 Gt.

[bballplayafors]

in reply to #22
You well definatley be able to run BF2 on high, no doubt.

Can I run this game on highest settings, including sound and maximum FSAA? What will my FPS be?

If I were you I would unlock some pipelines on your 6800GT so it runs as fast as a 6800Ultra, its not hard just look it up on google...

[imported_Foxen]

yeah, maybe a good idea dizzle. but the fan will sound like a chainsaw lol.

[Viking]

I think its safe to say Nvidia is the safe choice here as the games being developed on Nvidia cards, which should make them the better cards to run BF2.

Viking ;)

Running a Gaming laptop:
3.6 Pentium 4
1GB Ram
256MB 6800go Nvidia PCI-Express

Ask me for full specs.

[bballplayafors]

this might sound like a stupid question, but how do you play an fps on a laptop? I mean those touch pads are so strange and hard to control. I would think it would be a big disadvantage. Do you have an exterior mouse or something or are you just really used to that touch control pad?

[yeoldehomer]

In Reply to #28
It has been stated in interviews that the game is being developed to run just as well on ATI as nVidia.

In Reply to #22
Lol, of course you can run on high. Not sure about sound as you haven't listed your sound card. Would'nt have a clue about FPS because the games not out. However im guessing 30-50 on MAX settings (including FSAA)

Im looking to buy
- AMD Athlon 64 3500+ processor
- 1GB DDR400 PC3200 RAM (2 x 512MB In Dual Channel DDR400 mode)-
- 200GB Hard disk drive 7200rpm 8mb buffer
-16x DVD +/- Dual Layer Burner drive (NEW Pioneer DVR-109)
ATX Gaming tower box (Antec SuperLanboy, Silver, Aluminum, Support Front USB 2.0 Port)
-Nvidia nForce 4 SLI Chipset
-2 x Geforce 6600GT PCI Express (In SLI Mode)
-Onboard 7.1 channel audio (Audio Sensing and Enumeration Technology Coaxial/Optical S/PDIF out ports on back I/O )
10 x USB 2.0 Port (Max 10 by cable)

That's $1980AU (1,479.07 USD) for just the tower.

I already have
-Logitech cordless keyboard and mouse
-160GB external HDD
-Logitech z220 speakers
-17" TFT monitor

I will upgrade the sound card for the new rig also.

EDIT: Lol, I just read about SLI and PCI-e and to be honest im just going to buy an AGP card. Apparently SLI doesnt support most games, and PCI-e is crap...

of course it will be, what do you think, BF2 won't be the best graphic game ever came out, if you can play vietnam you will be able to play BF2 in high graphics, maybe wiht some explosion fps downers, but it will work fluently wiht this hardware, believe me, everyone thinks, BF2 has such a good graphic, but then they'll see, it is not much better than any other game has been released until yet

[Sevigon]

Do you have a 128MB or 256MB in your 5700?

[Noobownage11]

i got 5700le

[jack_dangerous]

i have

AthlonXP 2000+
768MB ddr2700
GeXcube ATI 9600XT Extreme

its a normal mid end sistem that runs HL2 on max settings at 1280x1024 around 50fps, i'm hoping to run bf2 well with max settings at at least 800x600 or even 1024 (its perfectly playable on my 17" screen :P ) but if that doesn happen happens i'll have to blame the the graphics engine :\ my pc passed trough HL2 and doom 3 and alot of other new games perfectly why should it stop right on bf2 :P...

anyway i just wanted to remember to ppl that the RAM above 512 just helps making the loadings a bit faster, 1 or 2 gigs of ram arent required for the game experience, it's the same as the earlyer bf series.

Ps: remember that if u treat ur pc well, he does the same in return and gives u very god performance, a computer is not an object... its a advanced lifeform in its own way :P... wow this post got quite big :S

[yeoldehomer]

Spitz

Your processor is fine, just a bit under recommended, but well over minimum, you RAM is also fine. The hard drive will only be a factor if you intend to use FRAPs. The videocard you are buying will be fine.

I'd say high settings for you. Mabey not MAX, but high

[Dark Kai]

Mines P4 3ghz Ht 800mhz fsb, 2gb dual ram @ 533mhz and, 256mb ATI Radeon 9800 XT. I think mine should run on max... I hope...

[imported_NuclearDruid]

Hmm don't know what the 2x512 MB of ram is. Sounds like it will run fine to me though.

[MUD-SHARK]

If the powers "hat be" happen to read this: I humbly request a small program that we can download and run to tell us if our systems will support the game. Our small group of 15 players are very interested in the specs as our ability to upgrade our laptops is virtually non-exisitant. I also think that a "uber-game box" requirement will, in the end, backfire and reduce sales. It is good to push the technological edge, but not at the expense of the company's bottom line. Our group will expend "some", but not $1500, to run a $50 game. I hope there are a few realistic folks left.
Thanks for the soap box! :)

[King Raa]

Is it true that this games going to run better on Nvidia than Ati? But I want to get an ATI... :(
will go for (in July)
whatever is the current £150 CPU - £125 GFX - £125 RAM - £50 Mobo - £50 PSU
atm thats like, oohh, AMD 64 300, ATI Radeon 9800 Pro, 1.5gig of ram and good enough mobo... and ohh, 500w PSU.
What you all think of price limits?

[bballplayafors]

Will my pc be able to run BF2 on medium-high(some settings on high some on medium)?

AMD 2800+ CPU(don't know GHZ) if you do could you tell me

edit: a 512 mb video card? I don't think BF2 will make much use of that.. 256 seems like more than enough.

[Zaitz]

Your graphics card should be upgraded soon as you mentioned. As I stated in another thread, the 6600 is a great, cheap choice that provides enough power to run HL2 on high. If you dont upgrade the processer it might create a bottle neck and be the source of some issues. You might be fine with it however, as processer power has less to do with lag then other hardware such as RAM and graphics.

If you get that graphics card upgraded I would assume you could run it on medium or high.

[Gaidin]

I have played bf'42 and bfv since they came out, and now I do of course intend to play bf2 when it comes out. The problem is though that my comp isn't the world's greatest, and I have seen different system requirements everywhere on the net. So here is the question:

Will I be able to play (not with the greatest graphic) with my comp? :

1.73 GHz processor
NVIDIA Geforce4 Ti 4200 with AGP8X (128mb) | System processor: AMD Athlon[tm] XP 2100+
1 G RAM

I hardly know anything about computers, but love to play :rolleyes:
(will upgrade my comp after I get my hands on some cash ;) )

//|FTA|Gaidin

[oaKenfoLd]

At low settings, you will likely still have a rough go at playing BF2 at the performance you'll probably want.

[IronHeart]

Your GFX card is out of date. You really need a new one. You may need to pick up a new processor too. By the way, this is in the wrong forum.

[Gaidin]

Yea, thought so.
The thing is that my entire clan is going to play it, even the guys in the bfv divison, so it will be pretty lonely otherwise.
hm....
GFX? AS the noob I am, I ask: What is that and does it mean that i will have to buy a whole new grapfic card?

[Inflatable Noob]

I Need help.

My puter is an AMD Athlon XP 2800+, my GFX is an Abit R9600 256mb, memory is 512mb DDR 2700 ram. is that ok?

Inflatable you may be able to run it sufficiently in low mode, due to subpar memory. If I were you, I'd at minimum go to www.pricewatch.com and get some memory.
Check this price listing for pc2700 1gb memory for $70 (http://www.pricewatch.com/h/prc.aspx?i=33&a=4922)

Gaiden yes, a whole new graphics card.

[theTyrant]

did you even read through the support or hardware forums before posting this here?

[Gaidin]

theTyrant: no, i didn't.
This was the first time i typed on this forum, and didn't thought about that. I guess I was stupid enough to think that if you didn't know where to put the thread, you could just put it under "General"

Could anyone here recommended a graphic card and a processor that will insure me having the good graphic on bf2?

[Defy]

This should not be here.

Next time, post all of you technical and hardware questions in the appropriate forums.

The Support and Hardware divisions should help you with all of your technical questions.

Also, Welcome to the forums.

[rahb0sse]

Grab yourself a minimum of a ATI 9800 PRO w/ 128mb.. Or a nVIDIA 6600 256mb.. As for a mobo/cpu combo, go grab yourself something along thelines of AMD XP2800+ or 64 3000+ .. If you're wanting to game it up for a long while, stick with an AMD, if not, grab yourself a P4 2.5GHz+

[EveryTimeYouDropTheBomb]

Graphic card:

Quality: Radeon x800 series
Cheap, good for low/med: Radeon 9800 pro/xt

Don't know anything about processors :). Check your mobo's manufacturer's site or the manual to see what CPUs it supports.. I think it works like that

512 is the guessed minimum, get the gig for good gameplay.

[||Animal||]

Dev said "You'll probably want one gig of ram." That's directly from the GIGAGames interview. I'm going with 2Gb.

[USMC[KILLER]]

Oh.. Ok Thx guys :D

[FreakinSyco]

Ive heard that 2gigs is recomended for "optimal performance"

[Requiem]

1 gb is good.

[Requiem]

If you're gfx card is MSI you'll be able to OC 15% more out of it.

[wodan]

Well, BF42 (DC mod) + AIM + xfire + VIA Audio drivers + Logitech Mouseware + winamp + Sygate Firewall gets me pretty damn close to filling up my current 1GB. It gets in the 900s. So I think 1.5 or 2gb would be good for BF2 but I have no doubt it will run fine at 1gb too. I want to go with 2*1GB chips to maintain the dual channel memory unless the E# stepping Athlon 64s come out and support 4 DIMM slots in dual channel, then i will go for 1.5 gb (2*512 + 2*256) .... im just babbling on now...

[=ATAC=DaBOoFu]

1gig minimum. 1.5 to 2 optimum.

[JamBo]

This might have changed, but there used to be a problem with XP recognizing any RAM above 1.5 Gig. So you might want to check to make sure before you buy memory that will not be used.

[Dark Mech]

*Sigh*
It looks like it is time for a new box. I have kicked and tweaked my system for all she is worth, but aside from the SATA HD, there isn't much left in the old girl. Oh well, a nics shiny new game rig is just what the doctor ordered... :D

[bfkiller10]

So far we know the minimum specification to be as follows:

1.5 Ghz CPU
512 Megabytes of RAM
128 MB video card (must support 1.4 shaders)

I was just wondering, Who was your source? :confused:

[HeavyAssault]

it sure to be working fine... no problem.. :laugh:

[HeavyAssault]

1 gig ram is sure to be alright...

[HeavyAssault]

I have 1.3 Ghz and 128 ram. I got nothin to show off with. My friend wants to play this game. By the way is that video card good? I dont know nothing about computer sorry.

kamil... will u be playing bf2?? if so... u should upgrade ur comp....

[Gaidin]

i have only heard about 1 gig...

[Gaidin]

hm...i guess i could use this thread...
I currently have a crap comp, but will upgarde it. i don't know much about hardware, so asking: will these things work together?

AMD 64 3500+ winchester
1024mb corsair 400mhz XL
ATI radeon X850XT PE (256mb)
Asus A8N-SLI deluxe

a got this idea from a friend of mine, so actually have no clue

[slosh]

You can't SLI ATI cards so I would either get a 6600GT or 6800GT(or ultra if you can afford it) so you can buy another one in the future and utilize the SLI technology. If you don't want to get an Nvidia card there is no sense in paying more for an SLI mobo.

Everything else will work though.

[E-2k5]

is my copmuter top of the line? :confused:

AMD athlon 64 4000
Radeon X850XT PE
1 gig corsair
Asus Av8-E Deluxe

Damn i really wanna play ALL games without slowdowns

[MUD-SHARK]

How long do you think it will be before BF2 requirements will be integrated into the WINDOWs game testing tool?

[Ace101]

Well Im thinking of getting a 3200+ with a gig of ram with my 9800 Pro 128 but this is what i got now, how will it work?

2.4 Ghz Pent 4

60 GB HD

512 RDRAM

Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb

Intergrated Sound Card

:/

[lt.miller]

Get that RAM and you should be fine from what I understand.

Those were official specs givin' by EA and DICE.

[Ogrt48]

All specs they've said in videos aren't official..

Okay, This is my new (hand me down) Laptop

3.2 ghz HT
1024 DDR ram
T1+ wi-fi
ATI 9600 Pro, 128! Im not sure about this, and i can't upgrade it since its a laptop.


My brothers new comps specs are as follows:

AMD 4000+
2 gigs of ram
t2 permanent ethernet cable hookup,
ATI X850xt
then once he can afford it, some old Nividea graphics card since he has the dual slots
then he has some other junk, But what im asking is...

Will my laptop with the ATI 9600pro be able to play it?

[rahb0sse]

Ok, didn't care about your brothers computer, but you should be able to run the game ok. Laptops never match up to a regular PC's performance... Internet isn't going to affect your perfomrnace, so the T1 and T2 doesnt mean anything... You should be ok.

ur brother comp look great.... what is the processor speed of ur bro comp??

[Dave11]

HI !

I recently bought this,

Amd64 3800+ :D
1gb ddr2 400 ram
GigaByte GA-K8NF-9 nforce 4
126mb x600 pro PCI-E
160gb 7200rpm HD.

How will this run of bf2, would it run ok on high settings.

[[CN]DooDman]

ur brother comp look great.... what is the processor speed of ur bro comp??
its a 64 bit 2.6 ghz athlon :)

I know his comp will run everything high+ and mine should work pretty damn fine since i can run half life 2 at 1024x 1020 something with everything on HIGH in the most intense battlefights with no problems, as with counter strike source (40+ player servers)

[rahb0sse]

Jesus christ, read the Support forum... You should be ok Dave11, wouldn't that make sense? lol.. why post knowing it would work? try to show off that? it isn't even that good, lmao.. crappy vid card... processor is decent

[Dave11]

im not trying to show it off otherwise i would be writing it under my avatar ;)
I know its not the best gfx card ever but will it run on high settings ?

[rahb0sse]

Yeah you should be ok to run it on high settings.


FYI: put it there cuz i've been asked way to many times to repeat it over

[Ogrt48]

Should I run ok?
amd xp 1800+
768 ddr ram
eVga geforce 6800 (brand normally unlocks extra pipes fine but my card is still shipping)

[$G-MONEY SMITH$]

will this most likely run it?
amd 3200 64 bit
9800 pro
1 gig of ram

[Dave11]

Money, you comp should easily run it, Ogrt48 you could do with a cpu upgrade but GFX and ram are good.

[Chimaira]

What about mine?

AMD 64mb 3400+
1gig of RAM
Radeon 9600 128mb
256gigs of memory

I posted this on the fifth page, and I still haven't gotten an answer. This is possibly the reason that there are so many "Will my computer run this threads". Sorry to get all preachy about it, but can you please try and answer a question in the post beforehand before you post yourself? Now back to my question. How well will my computer run this game?

[Requiem]

Medium Settings

[Chimaira]

Thank you

[Valbonne]

Chimaira, it's just your gfx card that stops you going to max settings.
With an AMD 64 3400+ and 1G of RAM is a very nice start for max settings....

[Cargoslug]

:cry: :mad: Jeez My comp wont run this game with my ****ty vid card...

I dont think my lil 9600 ro will hold out...lol think im gona have to be real good at home to get a x850xt.... would I at least be able to get like 50 fps on low? I can get around 50-120 on cs:source on medium settings.

Thanks for all the help

Any one know where I could find some help with overclocking my videocard?

[EB ..S8..]

In the BF-con05 movie the spokesmen what did the presentation said in the end of the movie, mostly you need over 1.8 CPU and 1 Gig ram and a 128 grafic card!! But he also said its still to be smoothing things up.
If you doubt me and start to flame or something else i would say look at the BF-con05 movie to know what they were saying about this and what not!!

Because thats semi official what they said on that BF-con05

It won't run like crap if you upgrade... YOu'll be ok on Low, maybe Medium, depending on how much ram the video card has on it.

Im not to sure that this is gonna run BF2 good, so what should I do to make it run on mabye Medium to High settings?

[NYC]

I think its a G force 2 or 3 or 4???? Ill find out.. But how do you find the specs for my computer? I know its a G force.

[NYC]

LOW SETTINGS!!!!???? If that then what upgrades should I get to make it run on medium to high?

[NYC]

Wait...I got the Nvidia G force 6800...So how good do you think it will run with that?

[NYC]

Aight Thanks dude. High settings would be Pimp. (.)(.)

hihi :D I might oc my com ( might , I realized on alot of games , max graphical options dont really matter much it only gives abiiit more eye candy , but for bf kinda games im worrying cos of the famous lines it has ( which are solved by AA ) .

Btw which part of singapore do ya live in ?

how will mine run, and what upgrades sould i do.

hp
pavilion
Amd athlon(tm) XP 2400+
2.00GHz
448MB RAM
Geforce4 mx intergrated graphics i know this sucks

[bballplayafors]

wtf? don't lie to him smoker! He can't run BF2 with 448 MB of RAM either! To be honest with you I think you should just get a new computer because that processor will "run" Bf2, but not that well. You would HAVE to upgrade your RAM and video card just to play the game, and then in about half a year to a year you will have to upgrade your processor. Upgrading your processor usually means getting a new motherboard as well. See where I'm going with this? If you are a casual gamer that wants to run BF2 well here is what I would get.

AMD 64 3200+ processor
Nvidia Geforce 6600 GT video card
1024 MB's of RAM preferrably PC3200
I don't know much about motherboards so talk to some else about that, but getting a new computer now will save you in the long run. Hope this helps.

[tf0t]

srry to be one of the "newbs" again, but i need to know what i will need to improve on to run on either very high end of the medium quality, or very low end of the high quality. if i already am able to achieve this, tell me what i will need to run on ultra high :evil:

my rig:

P4 3.0ghz

[imported_UH60BHPilot]

I would say RAM. And I do hope you mean, update to 1-1.5 GB or RAM instead of mb as you said... lol

whoops, yes that's what i ment :eek:

[-=Nick=-]

hey does any body in here know the excact specs for battlefield 2 and how much hard drive it is going to take up (some site said it was going to be 12GB)i dont know if thats right because it seems a little to big for a game.

i am thinking about upgrading my **** card and get a good one, but does anyone know how my card will run bf2 and what kind of graphics settings would i be able to run.

[JAMES315]

A quick question for you folks, I'm not sure if anyone can answer this one.

Recently we've seen a few reviews from people who were disappointed with the graphics of the game. They said that in spite of the powerful machines they were running the game on (specs not included?), they could only run at Medium.

It's safe to assume that if the EA publicity guys could gather up a bunch of computers for the demos that could run at High, they would. Does anyone know of the specs used for a demo where they actually did run at High? Can anyone confirm examples of any non-EA/non-DICE people ever running the game on High?

[E-2k5]

can i uber max this game out ?

[[52MB]B|Pvt.Kayess]

will my pc be able to run at medium or high settings with these specs?

[E-2k5]

yeah medium high i guess

[[52MB]B|Pvt.Kayess]

if i should upgarde anything should it be the gfx card yeah?

[-=Nick=-]

does anyone here know anything about videocard bandwith. i was woundering if the card has good bandwith it will be a good card and a low bandwith would be a bad card. my geforce fx 5500 only has 3.2GB of bandwith. i know that really sucks. so i want to know what a good bandwith would be good for BF2

my question is, should i upgrade my memory to pc3200? would i notice a big gain to performance? Thanks

[-=Nick=-]

Well u cant go by bandwith. I would get a 6600gt and that will run bf 2 on high. what is the rest of ur computer?

An average bd is well over 35 all most nvidia 6 series cards.. eazily over 35..

[_Hazard_]

will it turn on and not blow up the pc?
current, when game comes out ill have whats below, this is just for the Demo is it ever shows up

[Baseline]

I'm sorta picking and choosing a direction to go for upgrades. Doing shopping on newegg, I'm picking one of the two setups for my main components upgrade.

I've already got a gig (2x512MB) of kingmax DDR433 which is pretty good stuff
and an Abit NF7-S 2.0 nforce2 board.
I run all my games at 1280x1024

Current options I see:

Upgrade A:
Athlon 64 3000+ (socket 754)
Epox nForce4 board (socket 754, PCI-E)
Radeon X800 Pro 256MB PCI-Express
My current ram

OR

Upgrade B:
AthlonXP 3200+
6800GT 256MB AGP
my current board and ram

Both options end up around the $500 area. I'm sorta leaning toward B because it would seem that the 6800GT will perform a lot better in BF2. But Obviously the AthlonXP 3200+ won't be as good as the Athlon 64 3000+, and I'm wondering if Upgrade B will allow me to run the max settings. I'm not favoring the X800 Pro seeing as everything I've heard is saying Nvidia cards will perform better, and obviously the 6800GT > x800pro

Also, I considered the first option (Upgrade A with the A64) with a 6600GT (128MB), but from the video interview I saw the otherday, that dev guy said a 256mb card for maxxing out the settings.

[mklangelo]

Here are the specs of my recently upgraded system:


Athlon 64bit 3200+ CPU
XP Pro SP2
ASUS K8V SE Deluxe mobo (800MHz FSB)
1 GB PC 3200 RAM
Radeon 9800 PRO vid card
19' CRT Monitor
4 Megabit Cable Connection


I run COD UO with High everything and no problems.

[mklangelo]

So far we know the minimum specification to be as follows:

1.5 Ghz CPU
512 Megabytes of RAM
128 MB video card (must support 1.4 shaders)

It would be safe then to assume that to run the game well (on medium-high settings), you will want atleast the following:

2.5 Ghz CPU
1 Gigabytes of RAM
256 MB video card (must support 1.4 shaders)

I was just browsing at this card: eVGA nVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra Video Card, 256MB GDDR3, 256-bit, Dual DVI/TV-Out, 8X AGP, Model "256-A8-N345-AX" -RETAIL

It says nothing about "1.4 shaders" It seems like a pretty obscure spec. Could you name a couple of cards that support this feature? thanks in advance

[bf2.sOlo]

hmz I don't think you have to worry about that videocard, it's one of the best around so it must support 1.4 shaders

[shooterz]

i found this site: http://www.tomshardware.com/cpu/20041221/cpu_charts-13.html

its quite useful for finding out which hardware to get to get the most of your comp :)
its linked to the cpu chart to show you how useful this site is

[Ironduke]

hehe its so detailed it has processors which can only run it at 15fps :D

Your computer will just blow because you are exceeding the game requirements... joking i guess you'll run great on high settings
PS= And thanks for the link IronDuke ;)

[E-2k5]

Wow, FX-55 owns, wonder what specs is that PC running with besides all those CPU.

[Ironduke]

This page is meant to tell you what the specs of the system is:

I guess it sorta means they used different stuff for different CPUs :S

edit: This is a chart for agp graphics cards:

wow, seems my computer is gonna run all

[Ironduke]

[E-2k5]

yeah that's true... thanks :D

[Spleen]

With everyone saying wait for the demo before updating pc's, might the game be any different from the demo?

I mean if people update and get specs good enough for the demo, imagine if the game came out requiring higher specs, that would leave some pretty annoyed people...

[Ironduke]

Welcome UK.Spleen ur first post ;).
I dont think they would do that cuz they would lose a lot of their community. They wouldnt give us a demo then add something which means we wont be able to play as fast as we think we could.

Thanks :p

Yeah I'm hoping they won't as I'm waiting to see what kind of spec the demo needs, don't fancy wasting my money thats all :rolleyes:

[Eddie]

Welcome from me too UK.Spleen
I am sure thay would not change the requirements from that of what the demo will contain, otherwise (as ironduke said) their community will go

[HeavyAssault]

[Eddie]

[-=Nick=-]

yes it will run well when you change that video card. that x300 isnt that good, get a geforce 6800 or even a 6600GT and you will easaly be able to play on high

[E-2k5]

4GB, lol that's a waste of money, really :laugh:

[-=Nick=-]

If i can put Americas Army up to ultra-high on 512 i'm wishing thaty it will do the same on BF2

[E-2k5]

i run america's army on low with 15-25 fps average lmao
Right now i have:

Pentium 1.7 Willamette
256 ram PC2100 Kingston
GeForce MX 440 (64mb)
So hopefully my new rig is gonna run better xD

[E-2k5]

[$G-MONEY SMITH$]

If i can put Americas Army up to ultra-high on 512 i'm wishing thaty it will do the same on BF2

that makes me so jealous ur parents must be loaded, :cry: wish my parents did that for me.

edit:how old are you just wanted to know, Nick
15 lol

[bf2.sOlo]

oh my god, 4 GB RAM, that's crazy :p

[HeavyAssault]

those using 4GB are crazy.... 1gig-2gig is enough... lol

[Medel]

2GB is excessive...

[J-Dog]

i dont think so.......


i agree.. You really can't have TOO much RAM...

[-=Nick=-]

atleast im not going to have any problems with any games...lol

[-=Nick=-]

does anyone know how much i can overclock my cpu, i want to try and get 3.6 GHz

[bf2.sOlo]

does anyone know how much i can overclock my cpu, i want to try and get 3.6 GHz

lol, you still aren't satisfied with your pc? :laugh:

[-=Nick=-]

[-=Nick=-]

[Captain Jack Caster]

[E-2k5]

actually 4GB is OVERMURDER , and it may slowdown the game due ram excessiveness, and i'm serious.

[E-2k5]

oh sry didn't mean to quote

[Medel]

water cool
I would hope you could get 3.6.. that's like 6%.

[Ironduke]

actually 4GB is OVERMURDER , and it may slowdown the game due ram excessiveness, and i'm serious.

Actually if he had an athlon 64 CPU and had that new winxp x64 the 4GB RAM would actually give him an advantage over 2GB RAM

edit:but he doesnt so it wont :laugh:

[Ironduke]

look at this new xp version can handle that amount of RAM here:
