So how much FPS did u get and how much did u get on med?'Limeni[BiH wrote:;1563116']No. I don't think you will.
I have one PC with 2GB ddr2 665, amd X2 4500, ATI 4850 512 GB and i cant get decent FPS on all high with it.

Its decent fps on medium. But will I get more FPS cause I have 1gb instead of 512mb?

the 1Gb won't increase your fps. Last i checked (when running on med/high settings) PR used only like 300mb of video ram. also, your video ram is a bit slow (ddr2 compared to modern GDDR5) and it's important to have fast video ram since PR is a bit texture heavy.
i would go for at least 4gb of ram. (ram is pretty easy to upgrade) but i don't think it will be that necessary since you'll be running on lower settings. and i would go for medium/low settings, making sure that lighting, textures, and geometry are set to medium.

The only real thing slowing down your fps is the graphics card, which (correct me if I am wrong) is a budget card. Even a GTS250 (or it's modern-day equivalent) can run PR on high, and that cost me ?100 (although I have a GTX 280 now...
Upgrade your RAM from 2GB to 4GB if possible. On vanilla BF2 (Installed on an SSD), there was so much stuttering, it was unplayable. But when I upgraded to 4GB RAM, it was smooth as silk.
Your processor is fine for the job (that's assuming it is 2.6/7/8 GHz)

5450 would be better than a 8600GT imo=ESF=Mercy300 wrote:But the 5450 is DDR3
