Game Forum / Action Games / Half Life / October 2004GFX Cards for HL2 review?
I'd imagine someone will do a GFX suitability for HL2 review, but has anyone seen one? I figure that since HL2 has been delayed because of the leak, chances are that a top-notch card isn't needed. Not unless they've increased the detail since then, and one would doubt it. So essentially I'd be looking for a guide as to what's the minimum that will run it fine, rather than a comparision of all the fastest and most expensive cards. andyt >I'd imagine someone will do a GFX suitability for HL2 review, but has >anyone seen one?

I hope it really is good enough. <cough cough> Limnophile > you need a card similar to this as a minimum. > http://www.computerarts.co.uk/news/default.asp? > pagetypeid=2&articleid=30708&subsectionid=841 LOL, I can still remember when 640Kb memory total was standard on an average PC Oh btw - if I my bankaccount ever would allow me to go xtreme I'll attend an Alienware Shop :-] - Peter >> you need a card similar to this as a minimum. >> http://www.computerarts.co.uk/news/default.asp? >> pagetypeid=2&articleid=30708&subsectionid=841 > > LOL, I can still remember when 640Kb memory total was standard on an > average PC And I still remember my first computer upgrade. In 1983 I upgraded the ram on my Trs-80 from 4 to a whopping 16 K . It took 3 weeks of research and $60 worth of parts, but it was well worth it at the time. My second upgrade involved hooking it up to a tape recorder... Limnophile well, you can't get HL2 on that machine. >>> you need a card similar to this as a minimum. >>> http://www.computerarts.co.uk/news/default.asp?

After buying a real PC, of course.

I couldn't even give it away and it stay gone! The dumpster at work liked it well enough tho :) McG. |
