i have the below system config.:
intel pentium4 3.0 MHz
motherboard: Gigabyte GA-8IP775
Ram: 1 G
H. D.D: 120 G (western digital)
Directx:10.0
VGA: AGP XFX GeForce 5200 (128 M DDR)

the game (Need for SPeed - Pro Street) started fine but when the race count down began everything when so slow, i closed everything running in the backgroud including the antivirus (NOD32); i even tried it on XP instead of the Vista (that i am using right now) but with no luck!

did anyone used XFX Geforce 6200 in the below site to run the game?

if no, what is the minimum AGP geforce or ATI card that i can buy to let me run the game smoothly?
Many thanx!

Add another GB of RAM as well. Vista sucks on 1GB anyway.

AGP? And a 6200 GPU card? Time to start over with a new system. Or play old games, sorry. Your falling behind in CPU and GPU specs.

My condolences.

based on EA specs, your system does meet the minimum requirements which means it will play, just not well.

The XFX 6200 card is very good for what it is(I use one in my Linux box), but it would only be a slight improvement over the 5200. It is also not very snappy in Vista for some reason, even for basic tasks.

If the budget allows, this would be a huge improvement, and be a good match for your processor. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814130076

I also agree with the 2gb ram thing for Vista.
