The 7500 won't run BF2, let alone PR, however the 9550 might stand a chance.

Your best bet is to wait for someone who has one of the cards to come and confirm that they can play PR.

ok, i posted the same thing on yahoo answers and some 1 said they can run bf2 on medium with the 9550 but idk about pr, plus the cpu might be 1.3 GHz and i think that is bad, right?

Did they also mentioned what resolution? Because I'm playing with 7600GS in SLI (around just as fast as a single 7600GT) and I can play PR only on medium on 1280*1024 and with dust I tend to get an fps drop. (like landing a chopper for example)
