I should think it'll be fine. I mean I've only got a 1ghz PIII 512mb RAM and a Ti4600, and I get 30 fps with all the sliders maxed in 2k2.

PS. I'm planning to upgrade to a gig of RAM soon for extra performance Grin

Sounds like a really good package IMHO...besides, I'm sure it's upgradable down the line as things become antiquated. (God I hate that part of computers. lol)

In all honesty though, I think that's a good bundle for you to run F$ on.

As for everyone else, don't even bother. LOL Somewhere, SOMEONE will have a bigger computer than you. But there comes a point where you realize that as much as you like F$, you like EATING just as much if not more, so it's not worth breaking the bank over, ya know?

I'm not too familiar with the inner workings of computers (though I used to be very proficient with our family's Commodore 64).

Last year I upgraded mine from 128mb of RAM to 640mb and have been nothing but thrilled with the results. (I'll spare you the math...that means I put in another 512mb. lol)

I can't see the purpose of putting more in...although, if I ever saw one that had more, then I'd probably see the purpose quite clearly. Wink
