    How much have you spent on system upgrades fo BF2?

    How much have people spent (U.S $$$) on or will soon be spending on system upgrades for BF2? I just spent $220 on 2gigs of ram and $60 on a laser mouse. Of course this will help in other games, but I'm buying it primarily for BF2.

            $0. I learned my lesson from upgrading for Doom 3. Always a waste of money upgrading your machine for ONE game.

                    Well i upgraded my ram to a Gig and a quarter for the load times was bugging me.

                    I will be replacing my Athlon 1700 with a Sempron 2800 tomorrow. I'll also replace my Geforce FX 5200 when i sell my old computer parts to make my next upgrade affortable.
