You should be able to play at medium settings at best I'm guessing. You might try upgrading your vid card and overclock your CPU.

Lol, well im getting this on Sat/Sun in the mail:
2 Gig PC3200 DDR400
AMD 3200+ X64 (2.0 Ghz; 2000Mhz FSB; Socket 939)
GeForce 6800 AGP8X
And soon a Dual Layer 16X DVD writer.

You know the game is coming out on CD as well, right?

Whats the best Vid card to upgrade to, and whats a nice non expensive processor?

Everyone is going silly over the GF6600GT its both AGP and PCI-E versions, proccesor depends on your motherboard and socket.

Abit uGURU motherboard, wtf is a socket.

A socket is the interface between the MB and the cpu. They are usually designated by the type of pin connects and layouts the cpu was designed with.

For example, socket A=AMD, so the board accepts Althons, Durons, Althon XPs, but not the 64 bit processors, which are socket 751s, 939s, or 940s depending on the model.

Socket 478=Pentium 4 class. Socket 370=Pentium 3 class.

I couldn't find your motherboard on the ABIT site, so I can't tell you what socket it is.

I looked. I think im the nVIDIA2 S-G28 or something. Socket A.

**Black_V!per** · 06-09-2005, 08:45 AM

Hmm, cool, i was about to get a Socket A mobo, but i didnt like the Overclocking Spec's as much as i did with the 939.

**Tempus** · 06-09-2005, 10:30 AM

Get a 939, it's one of the new ones. Easier to upgrade the chip later. And get a 3200+ venice. Nice and cheap now.

Don't give up...I'm running an Nvidia FX5200, and it isn't on the list...but the demo worked fine

( 'cept for those tank monkeys that wouldn't stay off me....oh yeah...and the random artillery that rained down...)

Definitely play around with your drivers. That card should work...
