Pentium 2.66 ghz, 512 ddrram, ATI Radeon 9200, 56k.

I think I run it at 1204x768x16, have everything set to medium and shadows turned off.

Runs sweet, and I'm happy enough with graphic quality.

768mb Ram [was 1 gig but i took out 256mb in order to get a 3rd rig going]
Radeon 9800
Uber 56k.
Sound Blaster Audigy on Creative 5.1

Actually, just now for the laugh I turned everything up full and played with 63 bots. It was a bit laggy, but still playable.

P4 2.8 800 FSB,512 Muschkin DDR 4000,Radeon 9800 PRO.
Running at 1280x1024 Everything maxed out GFX,sound etc and getting 90-120 fps.
Runs like a dream for me.

Hellrazer

P4 2.8 @ 3.15--768MB ddr.Geforce 2 ti(Deadly---recommend me a budget card please--anyone using a 128 5200fx,can get one for €50.00)

40-50-fps with everything at medium and textures at low--nothing special turned on--no shadows,AA off etc.
Grass/flora looks shi*e.But can still have a decent game.

Fx5200 cards are crap stay away from them. I would almost guess that your gforce 2 ti200 is better then an fx5200. Or if the fx is better then the card you have it wont be by much. Only advantage of a 5200 is that is dx9 i belive.

Done, change the title if you want something that'll grab the right kind of views/responses.

Chorus Cablenet Broadband 128/512k
WinXP Home, Catalyst 4.4, 2GB page file.

I'm running 1024*768 at medium for no real reason.
I use the less-than-fantastic 'miles audio' with a 2.1 setup.

Have you run anything like FRAPS to measure your frames?
Make sure the game and windows is defragged and a seperate partition for your page file is not a bad idea.
I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it as per EA directions and it suddenly started to kick a bit so I defragged repeatedly. I'm considering moving it to it's own partition or something but it has settled again.

Hey guys. has anybody with a GeForce4 card had trouble when overclocking and trying to play BF? I've tried to overclock several times, at different speeds and even the smallest increase in mhz, memory or core, causes the screen to freeze at random times. I've got all the latest drivers installed so i cannot pinpoint the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Dcully

Just to point out AFAIK Fraps doesnt work with BFV.
Use the "console.showfps 1" command in your console.

I've played it on a PIII 800 with 256 megs of RAM and a GeForce 4 Ti4200.

It took a good while to load anything, but it was only a bit laggy.

BeatFreak

Main machine:

AMD 2600+ @ 2600 mhz
Radeon 9800XT
Gig of ram
Audigy 2

Runs perfectly smooth at 1280x1024 with everything on full and sound on EAX 3 or whatever BFV allows.

Lappy:

3ghz P4
Radeon 9600m
Gig of ram

Runs well at 1024x768 with everything on medium, but not as well as I would expect a machine of this spec to run, infact I was very dissapointed when I loaded it. Hopefully a patch and some new drivers will sort it out.

Mercie that weird

1st system i had it running on was p3 600mhz,224 sd ram with 9200SE ran okish on 800x600, 2nd was 2ghz amd with 512 ddr and 9200 se and its running perfectly on 1280 res have 56k dont even bother going online.

The card is using i got for 60€ in PC World ,Jaguar have the 256mb version (mine 128mb) for 80 its a good card runs Far Cry at 1280 with no slowdown (cept 1 minor issue new Catalyst drivers fixed it).

Are you sure you have newest drivers and used Detonator Destroyer to remove all old ones, if there is an old DLL it will cause bloody havoc with games, but you would notice it on other games too.

Try setting your connection to 56k in the ingame server browser, should reduce the amount of lag spikes.

it seemed to be working for me grand. i was just playing SP though so maybe it doesn't work online. don't see why it wouldn't though

P4 3.0ghz 800fsb
1024 ddr ram
256mb radeon 9800XT

everything set to highest and running at 1280x1024 res. don't have any probs so far

Placebo

Amd 3000xp 64 bit
512 DDR
ATI mobility Radeon 9600 - 64 mb.

I`m running it at 800x600 - 30bit.
Graphics = Medium
Effects = Low.

I havent actually tried a higher resolution or higher level details as of yet, gameplay is just to damn good to pick on graphics. I think if i do increase the reolution and detail, loading time will take ages.

LastIrishMonkey

Well I have
Intel Cel 2.4ghz i know cel argh but i like it so there
I Agree with bizmark on the the fact that ur talkin crap if u dont got a fx5200 there grand ........
also got 512ddr

I run the game Graphics detail medium and everything low because i wanna run the game with as much less lag and ****eness as possible.

But aint it all about the game play i love the game tis class
