lolz...could you make that statement a bit more depressing? I'm not sure I got the point.

I'm running 3.0Ghz Intel 8400 Duo, two 8800GT 512mb each SLI, P-5N Motherboard and 3 GB of high performance Reaper RAM (stupid XP only allowing one to run 4 GB of DDR overall) and everything runs fine but the occasional freeze crah issue I have been having.

This is a VERY interesting point. You see at one point or another as I've noted before -- SOMEONE pays. Since, we are all not paying for the team, we end up paying for new computers. I rest my case

I'm running Vista Ultimate x64, 6000+ AMD x2, 4GB of dual channel ddr800 corsair ram, with 2 dinky sata150 drives running raid 0, Nvidia 512mb 9800gt, with a gigabyte ma78gm-s2h board that has been very good to me

I couldn't run the older version smoothly on a all high textures cause I didn't have enough ram with 2gb, had to upgrade. Probably because of vista. Haven't tried the new version but I'm looking forward to it and I'm not too worried about the requirements

Also is it somehow possible to make the game dual core compatible or offloading a bit of the processing to a second core to improve some performance or would that require drastic amounts of code?

I guess we gotta hope for EA to be smart enough to make bf2 compatible with new hardware and software with the patch 1.5 such as vista 64, multiple core processor and 4 go ram.

Go and buy a 4870 x2 that card simply laughs at the bf2: pr gfx

Actually, you can make BF2 work with 4gb of ram

go to the Help&Hardware forum and check AncientMan's sticky, then try the last tip. It has worked wonders for me.

hehheh...i cleaned my case yesterday and removed one of my RAM sticks to check which brand they were.
After I put it back in, I went to work and when I came back I wanted to play a nice game of PR. But when I was loading Operation Archer I heard the loading music start about 6 times before it got to 100% (a full 25 minutes I think). And when I finally loaded, an instant CTD.

Turned out that I misplaced my 2nd 512MB stick. So I put it in correctly, and all of a sudden...i smelled something burning.

DUST in the between the connectors >_<. Anyway, it's fixed now..

On a sidenote, I've put my effects on LOW and seemed to help alot with the "supression lag" i got.

There is a problem running bf2 with 4gb of ram?
