[imported_-=AJ06=-]

Hey guys i'm gonna get a new desktop for Christmas and my budget is £800. I have come across a computer and would like to know how well and what settings that it would run BF2 on please. I would also appreiciate any suggestions on how to maximise the performance within my budget. :)

Heres the one;

AMD Athlon 64 3700+
2.4 GHz
RAM 1024 Mb
L2 cache 1 Mb
Front side bus 1600 MHz
Storage 250 GB
Graphics GeForce 6200SE 256MB Dedicated

Thanks For Replies In Advance

Most settings Low and some medium. The vid card is holding it back big time.

It's also a horrible price if I'm doing my currency conversion right. Comes out to almost $1200USD, which is a ripoff IMO.

Also the monitor has a 12ms responce time, which is decent, but you may get some ghosting with games.

Also the wireless mouse and keyboard that it comes with will be awful for gaming.

BTW do you have any screens of it on LOW, and does it look alright?

No the x600 wouldn't be any better. For really good settings you need at least a 6600gt. Don't have any screens of low.

Re: How Well Would This Comp Run BF2?

Do you know anthing better in my price range?

Because i know to build one would be cheaper but i don't know how to, and what to look for, so can you have a look for me at these websites;

pcworld.co.uk
comet.co.uk
currys.co.uk

or any other UK sites you can think of, for anything better in my budget, because i don't really know what to look for and those shops are quite near to me.

I would appreiciate if you can have a browse for me
Thanks

So for me with the game on low settings with a GeForce 6200, it will be playable?

No such thing as a 6200 GT. BFG does make a 6200 OC though.

Yeah, it should be playable, just won't look all that great.
