Hello people

I ma rite now searching for a cheap computers that can play BF2.
And I found three computers, but I don't know which one is better for gaming.

1. Intel Pentium 4 3.2 GHz CPU
2gb RAM
GeForce 6600GT 256mb

2. Athlon 64 3200+ 2.0 GHz
2gb ram
Ati radeon x1300 256mb

3. AMD64 sempron am3 140 2.7 ghz
2gb ram
nvidia gefroce chipset 7025

Bad Company 2? Good luck getting it to run on either of them cards. It'll be barely playable at lowest settings, and thats if it even works.

You're looking at something more like this to enjoy it properly:
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460

for sihts and giggles I tried running BC2 on a Radeon HD 2600 PRO.. it got 10-15 FPS on the lowest settings.

Battlefield 2, not Bad Company 2. The BF2 community is still kicking from what I hear.

Anyway, BF2 was the game to get me into computer gaming. I had an Athlon 3500+ and a 6800GS and it ran it pretty well at 1280x1024. I'd skip option 3. How much do you have to spend?

oops, sorry, my bad. I still have that game around somewhere...

Yep, BF2 is still VERY active, I play almost daily whether it be normal EA servers or PR servers, still a great game..

Anyway, I'd go with option 2 here. The Athlon 3200 has some surprising power and the x1300, while not amazing, should handle BF2 just fine from what I'm seeing on other forums.

Thank you for the replies :]
And in the option 2 its the x1300 not x1300 pro ...
In which setting would it work like low, medium or high graphic settings ?

I imagine you could get medium settings working ok, maybe even high? It's hard to say since all computers are different but I think that system will do just fine.
