    Can my computer run BF2?

    Hey all, I recently have been playing BF2 at lan and I am thinking of buying it. My main concern is that my computer will not run it well. In counter strike 1.6 I get around 60 fps and in counter strike source only 50 fps which is barely playable. (I won't play counter strike source unless fps is above 90). I'm running a P4, 1 gig ram, 5700 FX Geforce. Yes I know this is totally crap, but could someone give me an indication of how well BF2 would run on default settings?

    thanks..

              That's in counter strike source. I'm not sure what's good in BF2 so I can't comment.

                i think 40-50 is pretty good.

                my system pumps out about 25-30fps and i think its fine / smooth.

                ull want jut anything above25

                and yeah ur card isnt that great btw. but if u want to see how well the game will run, u can download the DEMO and try out some settings. ppl do still play the demo btw. i do sometimes too. the Demo is pretty much hte same as the real game excpet with only one map. There are some fixes/additions in the real game, but i think the demo is a pretty good representation of what hte real game is like

                  my old computer is a pentium 4 2.0ghz, FX5200 and 756mb of RAM and it played BF2 on everything on low with about 25 FPS. it dipped down to about 15 FPS when hit by a grenade or when scoped in with a sniper rifle on maps like karkand and jalalabad. But what's weird about the FPS dropping when using the scope is that it only does that with the L96A1, because of the smaller crosshairs. There's no fps drop using the M95, though

                    Hey cupcake, i've got just about the same specs as you.
                    FX 5700
                    2.5gb ram
                    P4 processor

                    I get about 40-60 fps on all low, 800x600, the only thing on med is effects. You CAN turn everything on medium, but your fps will drop to 5-15. For best preformance, i just reccomend all lows, and try to get med effects, it really makes a big difference.

                    *And by the way, the human eye can't detect fps above 60*

                      Yea, you should be able to run BF2 fine on low settings

                      Your PC is even better than mine, and I can run BF2 without any graphical problems, or horrible lag(just a little lag).

                      Wow, I never knew that.

                        if u want to bump ur settings higher, u can try my guide in my sig. but i only recommend it if u r playing strictly BF2.

                              bf2 is the most damn aggressive game that eats your computer alive if u have a cheap setup lol. well at least get 2 gigs of ram, when i had only one i would lag in the brgining and it would settle down. another gig is like 30 bucks. ddr2 533mhz or 667mhz
