How does Deus Ex 2 run on these new videocards?

Well, I had Deus Ex 2 for the X-Box. I loved the game, except the framerate was unbearable to me (some parts unplayable.)

So now I'm getting my new computer, 6800GT videocard, 3200+ processor, and a gig of ram. Now I heard that the PC version doesn't run so "optimized" on the computer as well. But with these new cards, does the game go much better?

This may sound like a stupid question, and I'm sorry if it does, but I'm just curious.
 
My memory is kinda fuzzy but I recall at least one comparison review that used Deus Ex and it kinda choked everything from a 9800XT on down and the newer 6800/x800's didn't do a lot better. That game has serious engine issues..
 
same specs as you minus 512 of ram, runs great at 1600x1200 w/ full settings. actuallly, DX2 is a pretty decent PC game.

Well, it played fine for me on my 9500pro. FPS from 25-75 with all ingame detail settings on high, but no aa/af and at 1024/768. That was with the 1.1 patch only; I'd already played through 4x by the time 1.2 was released.......my ti4600 ran 10-45 at 800x600 with medium detail and no aa/af.........Oh, and no bloom on either...

Anyway, you should be fine. :)
 
I played the game all the way through on my P4 3.0ghz, 1Gig of Ram, and a radeon 9700 pro with all settings maxed in 1280X1024 (no AA or AF on though). Ran at about 20-30fps..

Id assume a higher end card would run the game perfectly, but their engine is pretty glitchy. Theif 3 is much better, though.
