Would this run Project Reality well?

what does anti-aliasing do anyway?

Actually, no one here not even mentioned only important thing.

If you want to run this game on highest settings, you need to have 3 gigs of RAM. If you don't have 3 Gb of RAM, you will not be able to run highest settings, even if you have 8800 GTX.

I've had 3 Gb in my old machine, with old AGP 9600xt, and everything was completely smooth on highest settings.
Currently, I have much faster machine, PCI-x, but with "only" 2.5 Gb RAM, everything running smooth, every map, but I've had to put textures on medium.

Surely 3GB isn't needed.

It makes tacky diagonal lines look smooth. Prolly does other stuff as well, I wouldn't know.

Lies. I have an 8800 GTS (cheaper version of GTX) and 2 gigs ram, and dual core. I run all high settings with 100 fps. Tell me again what your ranting about?

If you're having problems with textures with 2.5gb of ram there is a serious issue with your computer, i can run high with 1gb..with no stuttering, of course my vidcard is too slow for that so the fps isn't optimal, but its enough ram.

Sorry then, looks I just undervalued 8800, but the rest is surely true

Guys I don't have a PCI Express slot, BTW This was the only card I could get, bought it without looking at this thread, could a mod lock. (Very happy with my card)

What do you mean you can't? The game wont let you raise your graphics to all high? are you also running Vista? I got 2GB of RAM, 2.4Ghz AMD 64bit Dual core CPU, and the shitty X1600 512MB. Maybe its the 2GB of ram then, cause I can still run the game on Windows Vista with graphics settings all on high and AA on x6. Although for Al Basrah I need to bring down textures to medium to be able to get that 60+ FPS. On Windows XP pro platform I didn't need to bring down textures to medium to get 60+ FPS, with high settings the game worked fine.
If you are using Vista, then I suggest that you first set your theme to "Windows Classic" so you don't have that Aero glass eating up your RAM and also "Exit" Sidebar.

I got OkAy FPS tonight, considering my brothers downloads were lagging the whole network.
