Chan 1 Posted January 31, 2002 I just recently upgraded my computer, I am tried of the 835 benchmark for OFP. It is torture when I play missions like Red Hammer's Beach map.

Does anyone here have a similar configuation to my system specs, if someone does please tell me how OFP runs. I just wonder when games would start to become slow again and I would have to upgrade...

ralphwiggum 6 Posted February 1, 2002 No more than 3yrs is my guess. Either AMD or Intel will comeup with processor that's twice better by then, and games like OFP2 will require 1Ghx or higher processor to do its awesome stuff. I assembled mine for about US$400 last March, and doubled RAM and added GeForce just for OFP. Never had in my mind thought that I would upgrade for a game.(AMD Duron 750, 256MB RAM, GF2). but it's worth every penny. This will probably be obsolete in a year or so as a good game player. yours will be ok...but any PC pver 3yrs is old for good latest game playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
