Alright...as of past i was playing BF2 in a "cafe" called Jive Turkey Tech Center on alienware computers that were decked out and the like.  Im not a big computer guy and i dont build my own computers aaaand i dont feel like going in there to ask questions.  I just recently bought a computer for more business purposes than gaming but noticed it happened to come with a graphics card.  The graphics card meets/exceeds the requirements for bf2 but the processor, an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 3800+ Im unsure about.  Requirements say Sempron/XP or greater, where does the Athlon 64 X2 stack up? im assuming its not greater but i have no idea...obviously, feedback?

That processor is fine - hell, it's more than fine - it shits all over an Athlon XP. Assuming you have at least 512Mb RAM as well (ideally at least 2Gb), you'll have no problem at all running BF2.

1Gb will be OK - if you put the graphics settings up too high it'll lag a little at times, but go for mostly 'medium' settings and it'll be fine. And you can almost certainly easily upgrade to 2Gb in the future.
