KDog35 0 Posted July 17, 2004 Anyone know yet what the requirements may be for OFP2? I have an older system and plan on upgrading. I just hope it will be good enough to run OFP2 smoothly. I now have: 1.1 CPU 512 ram SB live value Nvidia FX 128mb video card My question is, should I replace both the motherboard and processor, or replace only the processor for the upgrade? It's a Dell computer and would you suggest replacing these with only Dell products? Thanks for any tips, Kdog~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baron Hurlothrumbo IIX 0 Posted July 17, 2004 DO NOT buy dell stuff unless you like getting ripped off and talked down to like youre some sort of moron. Dell - good for people buying their first PC. Bad for value for money. Bad for customer support with anything more advanced than 'check the monitor is plugged in.' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gandalf the white 0 Posted July 17, 2004 i agree with your signature  get a good friend who can answer your questions about hardware  , then put together your own system. EDIT: but never make a topic with "wich is better, Nvidia or ATI?" here , i've been traumatised by them! . out of AMD or Intel i can say i've tried both, and liked my old Intel better...

KDog35 0 Posted July 17, 2004 Well the video card is staying in and was given to me; can't beat that deal no matter which brand it is. My question is it better to replace both the mother board AND processor, and what are the requirements.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pong2cs 0 Posted July 27, 2004 Imaginary requirements Based on my professional guess 1.6 Ghz 512 Mb RAM DX9 capable card 2-3 Gb HDD space (excluding 3rd party software) I could easily expect this from OFP 2 as minimum requirements, although I have no clue as to what the truth is. My idea is, despite graphically overwhelming, like HalfLife 2, it will still be capable of running on older (compared to release of game) hardware. I hope I'm not stepping on any toes by voicing my personal guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Longjocks 0 Posted July 27, 2004 As a professional imaginator, Pong? Well, my current system can struggle with Resistance at times, depending on the settings. I've little doubt that OFP2 will be a little more efficient in its delivery, but it'll be fitting a whole lot more in, if for no reason than to remain competitive.

Gollum1 0 Posted July 28, 2004 An interview with BIS said that it will be designed to work good with a 2 ghz CPU, but that can of course change...mm, so my new P4 2,8 should handle it just fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
