I just bought this card off of Ebay and I was wondering if I will be able to run Need for Speed Underground 2 and Most Wanted, Doom 3, and FEAR at the highest resolutions with full graphics smoothly.

I have an Asus K8N-E Deluxe mobo, Athlon 64 3000+ CPU, 1 gig ram.

I can't wait until I get this card! :D

Anyone with this card run these games before?

Thanks guys.

Almost. (If highest resolutions is 16x12 or less). FEAR is a VERY demanding game, but I run it at 12x10 and almost highest details.. The rest is a piece of cake.

My rig:
2800+ Barton
1 Gig DDR400
Asus X850XT

Nice buy, you won't be dissapointed. Be sure to use drivercleaner before you install the new card..

For the most part yes, FEAR not a chance in hell... The X1900's in crossfire can barely punch through the game full tilt, but that is because of soft shadows... My friend has the X850XT and he could run fear at 1280 (widescreen) with about 80% of the effects enabled. As for the rest of the games I'd say you would be pretty close as long as the rest of your system is up to spec.

The complex lighting effect are what kills that card.
