looking to upgrade
I am currently looking to upgrade my videocard and ram and was wondering if it would be enough to run PR on high.
Current System:
nvidia geforce 6100 integrated 512mb
amd athalon 64x2 dual core 2.21ghz
1.87gb ram
Upgrade:
geforce 9400gt 1gb and another stick of 1gb ram
Thanks

Re: looking to upgrade
I'd say get more ram that you stated, and an ATI 4800 series. The 4800 series has the most bang for your buck. I think the 4850 512 MB card goes for 150 dollars or less, which should be fine to play PR on high. Or you could get the 1GB 4870, but that's quite a bit more money.

Re: looking to upgrade
Windows Xp 32bit
I should also add that I have a 300w power supply and will probably upgrade that along with the video card. I am trying to stay on budget though and running the game so it looks like its highdef is not a priority. I use to play PR on my current system and then I went and played it on a better machine and noticed all the emblems and minor details that make the game visually pleasing. Being able to see things like this and not have lag is what I am looking for.

I have a 8600GTS 256 mb/4 gigs RAM and can run PR fine on high. WinXP 32 bit, AMD 5200+ Dual-Core. Not extremely expensive.
