I have an ATI x700 and it runs BF2 fine, why waste all this extra money just so the graphics could change, but the gameplay doesn't?

My Friend has a 7600 and it runs BF2 all high with max Resolution without any lag issues..

im probably going to get one in may for my birthday...i just wanted to be able to record a fucking video for once. which is why i'm going with something high-end.

Edit: for XMAS. . 7900 got my vote. too early to really waste money on an 8800. better to wait a few months for better cards.

I'm getting a PCI-E motherboard and XGA 7600GT for christmas, upgrading from BFG 6600GT (AGP). It runs everything pretty good on medium, some FPS lag at times, but not much. I'm hoping to run everything on high with 2GB RAM and an Athlon 3500+.

My asus 7600GT runs everything on high. If you arent looking for anything too expensive, grab one of these babies and you'll be set.

Me too!  If I ever need it, I have another EVGA 7600 GT for SLI. 

Great card at a great price!

In-game, bring up the console by pressing the ` key (to the left of the #1 key).


Type in renderer.drawfps 1 This will place an overlay showing you your FPS in the top left corner of the play screen To disable this, type renderer.drawfps 0

XFX and eVga are both suck. While some people might stand by these brands its because they never had a BFG.

fuck evga AND bfg, evga blows and i know, had an experience at my old work, they dont replace "fried" cards that overheated, like a faulty fan or heatsink, and the RMA took like 302348824 weeks.

XFX is the only brand i will ever use now. always the best fans and heatsinks, and look the best too. had to RMA a 7900gt a few weeks ago, about a month, and was back in like 3-4 days. amazing

never had a bfg, so i cant comment.

eVga puts in cheap parts in their stuff. While they claim to have awesome clock speeds on the pre over clocked stuff most of it doesnt last too long. BFG pre overclocked stuff comes in with low temperatures and most BFG cards you can even overclock further from their pre overclocked status.

I have owned BFG, XFX and EVGA.  I like them all.  I have even had good experiences with Gigabyte and Asus graphics cards.

For something to be good, does everything else have to suck?

ASUS is good for motherboards. They also make good video cards however I dont think they make any pre-oced models.

I bought an eVga 7800GT around Thanksgiving last year for my BF2 system, it works very well.
