Mine is a shabby 2.53 GHz P4

[Crptic]

i'll build a new computer a week before hl2 comes out.

 

[RabidMeatloaf]

Well for now I'm runnng on a......

1.3 Ghz, Radeon 8500, 512 megs of ram...... So pretty bad....

Half-Life 2 will look good on my computer....but it'll run like crap.

 

[infin|ty]

P4 3.0GHz
Radeon 9800Pro
1GB DDR

Hopefully I can run it at 4xAA 16AF at 1280x1024 and get 60FPS.

 

[MIWojo11]

P4 2.4GHZ 512K 800FSB
1GB Kington Hyper-X DDR
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro

Im building this a week before HL2 also.

 

[BWMASTER]

Infinity I dont think AF would run, you might want to sacrifice some picture quality for a better frame rate.

 

[MIWojo11]

I dont see how you cant have best quality with best frame rates with a system like that. Im not computer smart but jeez!

You = Lucky Bastard
Yes you can probably run it with those settings and even get 100 FPS!!!

 

[Mac84]

window xp
amd 3000+ (barton core) (2.17ghz)
1gig of corsair xms pc3200
9700 pro
want to buy a WD raptor before it comes

 

[MIWojo11]

I just want a system with awesome graphics and when you turn to look or jump it like skips frames or something. How will my system do with the max graphics possible?

 

[Mac84]

maximum graphics you say? i doubt any system could handle everything turned up maximum (highest resolution, etc)

but your system will be fine MIWojo11, dont worry.. you can run the graphics close to max (close enough that it shouldnt matter)

 

[FatCombine]

Mines a:

3.06GHz P4 <------ This thing freaking loud...
Radeon 9700 pro
1Gig DDR

 

[urseus]

You have a Radeon 9800Pro. You're fine. Don't worry. It's us 9700ers that should be worrying about stuff like that.

Ok your system matches mine except I have RDRAM. We should get the same performance I suppose.

 

[Joeyslucky22]

Pentium 4 2.6ghz
512 DDR ram
Geforce 4 4200

hopefully i get some good stuff to look at

gah 9700 pro is plenty, i doubt having a 9800 pro over a 9700 pro will make hardly a noticeable difference.

 

[KiNG]

ill have :
Althon xp 2500+ OC'd to 3000+
9800 Pro 128mb OC'd
1 gig corsair xms 3200

 

[Lifthz]

Overestimation. Your system will run Half-Life 2 like cake (referring to the topic starter).

 

[Wesisapie]

amd 1800+, gf4 ti4400, 512 ddr 333mhz ram blah blah blah

who cares.

I'll be running it on an AMD Athlon 1.3 Ghz with 512MB Ram and a ATI Radeon 8000 series.

Upgrading from 256MB ram and GeForce 2 Ultra.

That's the best I can do on my budget. Even that is pushing it.

Go with the RAM, it will load more of the game into a faster memory type, that would solve the slow hard drive issue, and it might give you better FPS.

Yeah Jason, wait. Seriously, upgrading to something such as that is not worth it. Save your money for an extra few months and buy a GeForce FX, the 5200 is loads better than the one you have and something like 70 bucks at newegg. The GeForce 2 is really not worth purchasing these days when cards 10x better are around the same price.

 

[crabcakes66]

2600+
1 gig of ram
saphire 9700 pro

should run good on medium-high settings
