    Graphics Card

    Well on one of my computers BF2 isn't supported because of the graphics card.
    Would this card work for BF2?
    ATI RADEON 8500 LE 128MB DDR OEM AGP
    site that is selling it

    It will work but it is the absolute slowest card in existance that can run BF2. (I am not exaggerating or poking fun)

    If I were you, try and pick up a second hand video card off a FS/T forum (check anandtech, hardocp etc..) and try and find some uber enthusiast who is dumping their Radeon 9700 or 6600 cards etc...

        Lowest details on everything, probably 800x600 or 1024x768, and very low FPS.

                  Whats your max budget for a new card? Maybe we can help you chose one that won't lag for a good price.

                              This would be a far better choice:
