Who here plays half life 2?

If you play please state what kind of performance you get and your system componants.

I am interested in how differant systems handle this game and think it will help people like me decide on componants for their future systems. As HL2 seems to be the posterchild for modern and upcoming games.

you can also use Doom3 and EQ2 and other such games, just please specify.
 
rmrf that thread on this site is not what i was asking and the other one is but it is full of jerks who are completely off topic, thanks for trying though.....
 
that was a good link, i think that the 6800GT that im considering will do just fine, even with max settings and full AA and AF it runs at 60.5 frames per second which is bearable.

maybe i can even drop to a 6600gt and get away with high settings.
 
its perfectly playable on a XP2000+ @2600+, 512mb of RAM & a gf4 mx440 @1024x768 even 🙂
Crappy textures abound, and it was agonising after playing it on my 9800 pro, but since it decided it produce ever so pretty artifacts it has gone away 2 get fixxed 🙁
 
I run HL2 at 1024X768 at arond 100fps in the slower areas with my Athlon 64 2800+ and Radeon 9800 Pro and a gig of ram. Keep in mind I could run this setup at 1280 with 4XAA with over 60fps, but I dont because my moniter runs 1280 at 60hz.
 
I've never really been one to complain about REPOSTS before, but seriously people do a SEARCH before filling up these boards with redundant threads! :roll:

Heh, THIS thread is about to be full of jerks yelling at you for not using the search function and reposting a thread we've seen 1 million times.

So I'll get it started:

Use the search function. This topic has already been done to death, and you're just clogging the boards.

Butthead.

Get in this quick!!! Perpare for the pyroclastic apocalypse coming your way for being a newb and not know how to use the buggy search engine!

Search Nazis.:roll:

Anyways, I can play it at 1600x1200 w/4xAA and 8xAF. Can't ask for anymore.
Specs in sig.
