Re: high settings

yes, and why epox? There are plenty better boards out there, and why not a opteron 165?

Re: high settings

meh, its a good rig, the mobo doesn't make that much of a difference, and the 3800 is a perfect gaming processor, he doesn't need any better.

Re: high settings

i might switch to 7900GTX and Opteron 165

Yes, any new gen video card mixed with 1.5-2 GB of RAM and pretty much any other hardware will run BF2 on high.

The first thing I thought of when I saw this thread was "brag"...

Dependant on resolution :)

Re: high settings

yes, those specs will play battlefield 2 on the highest settings they will go. I think even the highest resolution.

Re: high settings

Don't bother getting 2x7900GT's just get 1 7900GTX and spend the rest of the money on a better processor maybe 4400 or like the guys said opty 165

But that comes back to res, at higher resolutions sli is king but i agree at a boring normal res a single card may be as good as two (if not better). The question with sli is can you max a single card out and if you cant... then what would the second one be dong?

Re: high settings

Do what MonkMachine did, Put the total money of those 2 7900GT to one 7900GTX. It is a better idea that going sli.
