Hi guys,
Im new to this forum and would like some advice on whether or not my current (ageing) PC will be able to handle a video card upgrade to a Radeon 9800XT.
If not then any recommendation would be most welcomed.
My current PC setup is as follows:
Power supply: 320 watt ( unsure of make and model )
CPU: AMD Athlon XP2500 (barton core @ 1.8 Ghz roughly )
Motherboard: Albatron KM18G nforce 2
Videocard: Radeon 9600pro
RAM: 2x 512MB PC2700 Memory
Audio: Audigy Soundblaster (very first version)
Hard Drive: 2x Seagate Barracuda 80 gig IDE HDD
Monitor: Viewsonic 17" Monitor
Case: Thermaltake Skull case ( not sure of actual model but it has a LCD display that monitors both the CPU and Case Temp )
I know it is an old system but I would like to be able to play Battlefield 2, F.E.A.R, Quake 4 at 1024x768 resolution with some decent frame rates.
Any help with this would most appreciated.
Cheers.
