Phatferd Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Can you experts tell me what I need? I know newegg.com is the way to go. I have $150 to spend right now. I have 2 PCI-E slots, 1gb RAM (thinking of upgrading to 1.25gb. I have an extra 256mb stick lying around), AMD 64 3500+. I know the 7600's and stuff will run this game fine. I am also wanting to play BF2 on good settings, if it's possible for my price range.
