I'm just wondering what you think I will be able to run BF2 at with this setup?

Full Settings, 1024x768? Do you think I could stretch 1280x1024?

Thanks.
 
CPU is a bit low, also you'll need at least a GB of ram preferably more for BF2. But the card is strong enough for BF2; its just not the only factor in your equation
 
That celeron is gonna kill your setup, not full settings but you can handle those resolutions definatly with the card.
 
Yeah need a new processor, remember at this point in time its not what frequency it operates on, its how fast it is.
 
u can prob get a nice replacement cpu for less than 50 bucks that will boost ur framerates immensly.

then, if ur up to it, get more ram. That card is nice, from what i heard.
 
yeah, thanks guys.

I'll probably be getting a Core 2 6300 here soon along with 1.5gb-2gb RAM in the coming weeks. I just wanted to know what I'll be dealing with for the next few weeks. This is my first gaming computer since I got rid of my old one about two years ago. It should be fun.

Thanks again.

With a 6300 and 2GB's of ram you might wanna look at going to at least a 7900GS or x1900GT [not a lot more $$ than your 7600GT].

The core duo is if I get a job in the next few weeks or not (i'm in college). It will most likely be a 3000+ A64 system.

Fair enough; if you get the job reward yourself with a slightly higher end graphics card then :D
