I was wondering if i have a good pc, well good enough at least, if i have a 620 k/bits connection speed will Battlefield 2 be laggy when i play online?

You should be alright, you should test your speed at www.dslreports.com to get your actual up and down stream speeds. Your upload speed is very important in gamin.

k thx
My internet connection speed is 622.4 kbits/s
it send around 100000 bits and i receive around 120000
how well would the game run a GF68000GT 1Gb Ram and some other good enough stuff?

Re: Internet connection speed

A 6800GT is a damn fine card and will perform very well, and 1G is what seems to be the "real" minimum for RAM. I'd recommend, as will others, 2 gig if you can get it. Although the 1.03 patch is supposed make the game run better on 1 gig.

Holy crap, yes you do have an issue. DeathGiver did you get that at dslreports.com? If so run a line quality test and see where your issue is. I have a 3/756 line and get perfect marks 250-260k transfer rates after Verizon repaired/replaced a bad router in NY.

Yea, your upload is a little low here. I have a 1.5/786 line with actual transfer rates of 1288 kbps / 620 kbps and that works nicely.

And how is your line 3 Mb? Is that this Comcast crap where your 3 Mb is not guaranteed and that bandwidth is shared with 5000 people?
