Post by: {Comrade}Macgyver on June 21, 2005, 06:22:34 PM: i think i know the store your on about its gay and expensive.
if your going to buy any computer hardware i would suggest buying it online from a company in ireland or england you'll get it cheaper almost every single time.
cd's/dvds are ok to get in shops there cheap enough now except in pc world were they rip you off in every thing

Post by: PJ= on June 30, 2005, 12:03:25 AM: Are you mad, I have an X800XL and it's great. At the moment I run my settings on medium but I ut my anti-aliasing up to x6 so it's nice and smooth and it looks fantastic. I have 2 gigs of ram though, you're better off getting some more ram that a new card I would say. I haven't even tried it on high settings because it looks so good anyway and performance is good, could easily if I wanted too though.

Post by: CU||Y on June 30, 2005, 01:57:45 AM: Are you mad indeed?
I run BF2 with an x800xl, all high settings cept for lighting,dynamic shadows and dynamic ligting which are set to medium.
1280X1024 4XFSAA and get between 40-90 fps,never dropping below 40 fps.
For FSAA use the new ATI cards cannot be beaten and tbh BF2 needs some FSAA.
P4 2.8ghz 800FSB,1gig DDR 400mhz,X800XL.nothing overclocked,default speeds.

Post by: PJ= on June 30, 2005, 12:07:11 PM: I get really good frames, usually 70 + I even got 105 the other day :shock:. By the way you don't need 2 gig to run the game, I only wanted another 512MB to make it 1.5 but my motherboard won't accept the ram if only 3 of the slots are used up :cry:
