belgarion 0 Posted June 15, 2002 I know it's been asked before, but i couldn't find a good enough topic to fill. I've got a athlon 500, 128mb ram and a voodoo 3 16mb card. I bought the game in dec/january with the red hammer addon. I've played it ever since then, and have had real fun and stuff, but i've had to strip the settings down a little to get as much flow as possible. Now i'm thinking of upgrading, it will be a Geforce3ti200 64mb and another 128mb ram (which is all i can afford, i cant buy a new computer even though i know i need one), but my question is: Will it run? I don't want to spend $400 on the card, memory and a 80g hd if the game still will be unplayable at higher settings because of my 500mhz athlon. Lots of user-made missions say that you need atleast a 1gig cpu to get it to work, but cpu's are expensive.. especially when you have to get a new motherboard and a new case to fit the cpu (i have a compaq computer.............) I'm asking this on the 3 forums that matter for me (Operation-flashpoint, Soldier of fortune 2, B17 2) before i go out and buy the stuff.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted June 15, 2002 Unless someone contradicts me I'd be pretty sure that the new card and extra ram should make things a fair bit better, but of course as you know your CPU needs upgrading as soon as you can Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hilandor 1 Posted June 16, 2002 yes the extra ram will help big time i used to have an amd 500 with 128meg ram i upped the ram to 512 and that got rid of my generall slowness, new graphic card real helped too but definetly be thinking of upgrading your processor soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
