GeForce 7600 GT AGP

[{CLR} ObiTroy]

I came very close to buying this when at Best Buy yeserday... but wanted to ping your guys to see if anyone else is running this game with GeForce 7600 GT AGP? I know, my system is showing its age.

Graphics: NVIDIA Geforce 6600 or better or ATI Radeon? 9800Pro or better

thats the minimum required, you should be fine

Your card should run it pretty well Obitroy. You may have to drop a few settings off and anything around 1280x1024 will be a breeze. :2thumbs:

i need help to. I need to buy my son a new video card and of course he wants games (so cod4 for pc might be in our future). But i cant really spend over $100.00.

When it comes to video card im about dumb and dont really understand whats good vs what isnt.
This card is on sale at a really good price. Does anyone think this will run cod4 or ut3

Of does anyone know a better site to get a decent video card for around $100.00. that will run todays games. Doesn't have to be settings on max but run good enough to be playable and enjoyable. He loves the xbox 360 but he also loves shooters and mmo`s on pc. Can anyone give me a suggestion?
I think he needs a pci express card, he is using onboard video card now and it wont run anything. wow was its last arruh.

you sons computer has a PCIe slot?

[Premonition]

yeah pretty sure.

[unorignal]

I run a single 7600 GT OC PCIe, not sure how close they are in performance but it runs COD about medium levels at 50-80 fps.

Thanks, guys.

I downloaded the demo... will install later this evening to give it a test.

The demo will not give you an idea on gameplay but will let you see if you can run the game pretty well

I was planning on a simple response....then I got carried away :twisted:

You could always dl it from Steam. Then after Christmas take the unopened game back for a refund. :idea: :D

You all need to stop with this "dl it now!" stuff. I don't want to dig into my credit card for this thing, but I keep seeing how much fun you're all having and I don't need all these reminders of how easy it would be to load it directly to my system. And in my case, if the wife did buy it for me for Xmas, she doesn't have to know I returned it. Though she may see me playing it early if I were to break down and get it through Steam. :P :twisted:

Leave us broke, whipped, and/or PS3 owning folks alone. Bullies. :cry:

I want it now too :D . Maybe I can talk the wife into letting us open one present early this year (assuming she gets it). If not, I have Half Life 2 from The Orange Box to keep me busy until then - I'm really enjoying it.
