hiyas. so ya, i was thinkin about gettin a bfg 6600 512mb. my cpu is a pentium d 2.8ghz and ive got 2.5 gigs of ram. so, is this hardware beefy enuff to run bf2 and the new bf2142 with the settings on high? (not highest or maxed, just high) thanks. =)
 
the 6600GT chip is incapable of fully utilizing 512mb of onboard ram.

It's kinda like selling a Geforce 4mx 128MB.

In order to get the use out of that ram, you need to turn up the resolution and/or texture details. The graphics chip is then spending more time rendering the higher resolutions or larger textures, and your fps go down... a lot.

Purchase a 6600GT 256MB version. Or better yet, get the 7600GT 256MB because it has SM 3.0 and HDR

If you plan on playing 2142 at 800x600, then you may be able to play with most settings on high, otherwise I wouldn't get your hopes up.
I can't play all my games on highest details with my 7900GT because I run 1600x1200 resolution.
