Hey battlefield geeks - is this an acceptable gaming PC configuration? - GoFuckYourself.com

Dirty Dane · 11-30-2005, 11:43 PM

It will only be used for gaming, and some HDTV (via external disks).

Motherboard:
GigaByte Gigabye K8NPro-SLI, nForce4 SLI, RAID v. S-ATA & P-ATA

CPU:
Athlon 64 X2 4800+ Dual-Core, S939, 2x 1MB, 32/64-bit

Graphic:
Leadtek Winfast PX7800 GTX TDH MyVIVO Extreme, PCIe, 512MB GDDR3

RAM:
Kingston PC3200/DDR400, 184-pin, CL3,0, 4GB (4 x 1024MB)

4 x HDD (RAID 0):
4 x Western Digital WD Raptor, SATA, 10.000RPM, 8MB cache, 36,7GB

Already have Phillips 37PF9830 which can be used with an HDMI adapter from that graphic card

Including cabinet, max silent kit upgrade and so on, it will cost me around $1.500 here. Is this a good configuration?

I havent bought that PC yet. And BF2 requires the big stuff, but I dont know if the configuration sounds right. Or pentium is better?

Really? It was the fastest X2 I could find on the homepage, unless its another version FX-57 which is very expensive.

lol... never trust those numbers. I already have more than the recommended but its simply not good enough. Thats what they say so people buy the games, just to find out they can't play on highest resolutions.
