Friends comp

[zerofill]

Now my Machine is a AMD 64 X2 4400, 2GB memory, 2 Geforce 6600GT SLI..
I run battlefield at the highest possible setting on everything no lag...Except my resolution is 1024x768...

Buddy of mine has a 7800GT, AMD 64 3200, Venice, 1GB memory
He turns everything up max gets a flip book for a game.

I actually expected his system to run BF2 maxed too...
Seeing as how BF2 really doesn't take advantage of the Dual Core of my processor...and him having a 7800GT...I expected the play to be similar...

What does everyone here think? The 1GB extra memory made that much of a difference in the 2 systems?

Also I have an A8N-SLI Deluxe Mainboard...he has the combo deal Newegg is selling here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813188002

You can get that board and the 7800GT for like $379...

Re: Friends comp

2GB are needed to run textures on high. Otherwise just make sure all of his drivers (especially his motherboard drivers) are installed.

Re: Friends comp

So he needs to probably stay around medium until he gets the extra gig of memory then I am guessing...

Most people here adjusting everything through Nvidia control panel? Or are most of you letting the applications control the settings?
