well i just bought "battlefield 2142" and i dont want to open it because i dont want to waste my money and it wont even run, heres what my computer has and people r telling me it probably wont run or it will lag alot my stuff is kinda weak. but here it is 1.0 ghz processor 512mb memory Radeon 9550 256 mb video card this r the requirments for bf2142 DirectX 9.0c February 2006 edition (included) CPU: Intel Pentium 4/AMD Athlon 1.7 GHz or equivalent RAM: 512 MB Video Card: 128MB DirectX compliant video card, Pixel shader 2.0 and above. (AGP and PCIe only) Sound Card - DirectX 9.0c compatible Hard Drive space: 2.2GB of space is required to install the game Internet connection: 128kbit Cable/DSL connection is it going to run? if u dont really have a clue. please dont post. im kinda in a hurry wether i should open the box or not.
even tho you have the video card i still think it will lagg a heap why not download it test it out on single player and if it works open your bought one? idk but i seam not to think it will run very good if not at all well gl mate
because if u dont really have a clue on what ur posting like. hmm idk maybe it will work. i just want a good idea if its going to work. anyways yeah idk. my processor is a problem. but i run cod2 just fine and stuff but they say this game has more action.
If bf2142 is anything like bf2 was its a RAM hog and really with a weak processor you are in some deep water. Though you can run cod2 it requires a slightly weaker processor then 2142
to play it well you'de want 2.0GB+ RAM video card with atleast 12 or 16pixel pipelines and 256mb vRAM proc- 1.83GHz Core 2 Duo, 1.8GHz athlon 64, 3.0GHz P4, 2.4GHz athlon XP, 2Ghz Sempron(64), 3.4Ghz Celeron D, 1.8Ghz Pentium M, 2.0GHz Celeron M, 1.8Ghz Core Duo for all of the above, you'de also need a new motherboard, and a new powersupply. you'de pretty much be looking at an entirely new system, might be able to reuse some of the CD drives but that is about it. Radeon 9550 has 4 pixel pipeliens clocked at 300mhz I beleive..
i dont need the perfect comp. i just need to be able to run it...512mb ram is ok . my video card could run it. its just my processor
uhh what I listed wasn't a perfect computer it was baseline for acceptable. realistically, it will want 3+GB RAM 2.66GHz Core 2 duo or higher GeForce 7950GX2, or 8800GTS/X or a Radeon x2k card essentially, what i listed was about half the performance of the above. and no youre video card wont' run it, it isn't even acceptabel for Battle field 2, yet alone 2142. it has 4 pixel pipelines, and I beleive they are clocked at a mere 250mhz. RAM is only 128 bits wide running at 400mhz, as well severaly comprimising bandwidth. TO put it in perspective the system RAM in my computer can run at 1.1GHz http://srtest.com
well it states on the requirements. it needs radeon 9500 or higher or nvidia geforce fx 5700. and 512 mb ram.
OK ALL NEW PROCESSORS NEED NEW MOTHERBOARDS. NO CURRENT MOTHERBAORD SUPPORTS THE OLD sdRAM STANDARD SO YOU NEED NEW RAM(for multiple reasons). THEN YOU NEED A NEW GFX CARD TO GET THE GAME TO START and you'de want a new graphics card anyway since the game was designed fro a much faster card. to put it into perspective, the chip in the xbox 360 is about 25 times as powerful and this game has "better than 360 graphics" and EA isn't known for making games which scale well there you go... you also kinda need a DVD drive.
http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest try that ^^ and 2142 runs maxed out flaws on my computer (check sig for specs) Merged Post: take a picture of ur screen after checking and post it here for example
hmm idk. ill have to talk to my dad or something about all the parts i need because i dont have the money. thx anyways guys and u xelink =] Merged Post: alright Computer_Kid ill try it out.
