Out of 4 computers that have a fast enough cpu to run the game all of them get a 0 frame rate. I cant even click on anything cause the mouse is impossible to use.

So I'm looking at buying a Geforce FX 5600. Does anyone know if this card will work ??

Also does anyone know what zbuffering is ??

PS- its not much more than the 5600 FX and looks a helluva lot kewler.

Its overclocking performance is insane tho I havent yet gotten to the point where I need to over clock anything...

Thanks for the info MoRphEuS. Is the 3.2 gig cpu necessary
to run the game and do you know if the 5600 FX will even work?

I don't know about the 5600 FX. This is a chaintech card right?

I went with what worked for others lets put it that way. Not for AH2 but for other games that are very reliant on the video cards and CPU.  The AMD's run a SHEET load hotter than other chipsets. I mean like fry and egg hot... I'd recommend a good case that has exclent cooling features. I just finished building this system and have another one (better) lined up in the near future. They are so CHEAP to build yourself you'll be blown away. Not to mention easy.

IF YOU GET ANYTHING in the 5700 series get the apogee.. (FX5700 Apogee) Much better than the rest.

Thats a forum where dweebs shoot the u know what about all things computer. You can learn alot by just reading but if you have any questions they will be answerd pretty much asap.

There are many comparisons ect between cpu's, video cards, EVERYTHING...  Check it out. Alot of those guys can explain things better than I ever could!

Here's what my card looks like hehe

Thank you MoRphEuS. I really appreciate you taking the time to reply to my post. Now you've opened a few new doors and put me that much closer to making the correct perches.

I use the 5600, it works fine for me.  Upgrading to the 5950 soon though.
