Battlefield:BC2 PC performance question

[Yostbeef]

Hello,right now steam is having a sale for bad company 2 the price seems pretty fair but i heard it was a pretty demanding game and was wondering if someone who owns it could give me there opinion on weather i can run it well or not here are my specs

Os:win 7 64 bit
Cpu:AMD Phenom II x4 3.4ghz
RAM:4gb DDR3
GPU:9800 GX2 512mb dedicated video memory

Thank you your input is appreciated.

This'll help.

I don't own the game myself (well I do for the PS3), but you can use this little tool [http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri] to check whether you can meet the system requirements.

To me your system looks rather good, but your GPU might bottleneck a bit or does that GX2 mean you've got 2 9800's in SLI?

I have it and it runs fine on my system specs are

OS:XP 32bit(makes it a ***** to use the shield turrets)
CPU:AMD 3.1GHz dualcore
RAM:4 GIGs DDR2
GPU:NVIDIA 9500 GT 1GB

So yea yours should run fine

I run it on AMD 3.0ghz dual core, 2 gigs of ram, 8600GT 512MB. I've got it on low/medium (trees look a little blotchy at long range, but it doesn't effect the gameplay) and don't have any troubles at all. You should be fine.

I run it on Intel 1.6ghz dual core (Which I should replace), 8800GT 512MB, XP. You'll be fine.

Thanks for the link and just one gx2 I know i can run it i just want a more detailed perspective on how it runs with the more demanding video setting(already know aa might be out of the question

Is that what causes that? When I first started playing I wondered what the moron who designed those turrets was thinking.

You should be totally fine. I can run it on high settings with these specs.

Windows XP 32-bit
Intel Dual Core 3.0 Ghz
3.5 Gigs of RAM
Nvidia 9800 GTX+ (512MB)

I don't see any reason why your PC wouldn't be able to handle this game, or almost any game on the market currently.

 

[Yostbeef]

Now hear is one Battlefield 2 is on sale as well what do you prefer

 

[The_Prophet]

Your specs are almost identical to mine so you should have no problem running the game.
Instead of the Nvidia GPU you have, I have a ATI HD 4850.

Because you need DirectX 10 to see out of them for some retarded reason, makes me want to beat a panda every time I try to use one.

BC2 is kind of intensive, but it does run a lot better compared to when it was first released. They did some engine tweaks that fixed some heavy duty lighting engine related FPS drops.

 

[dj Facchiano]

Strange, I would think that someone with those kind of specs would be able to run the game maxed out.

Legit site, has just about every game on there. Easiest way to test if your PC can run something.
