Video Card help....

[Guest]

i got a new PC with an NVIDIA GeForce 4MMX 128 video card will this be enough to run HL2?

Yes, I believe it will run in DX7 though. Just like a GF2.
GF4 TI were dx8 though. MMX were not.

I have a GF2 and i wont upgrade til after Oct.
But if you want to upgrade, dx8 still shows HL2 in good quality/effects.
A 100$ GF4 4200 TI wouldnt be a bad call if your short on cash.
otherwise ati 9600-9800 DX9 all the way.

I guess what I am asking is will it run well?

Not really sure.
But it is within min spec so i would guess it would be OK.

Is the video memory Ok? I don't wanna spend freaking 400 bucks on the new Radeon 9800. Should I be ok?

Its says on the link that it can run DX8. Will that be ok?
