FEAR 2

[Fender16]

Anyone else notice the CPR instruction chart?

Serenity, I believe we had a discussion, albeit brief, about having similar HP systems a few months ago. Yeah store bought might be kind iffy, but after you replace everything but the motherboard and processor, they'll handle an awful lot. With a decent graphics card and RAM, you should be fine for Fear 2.

Alright, I have a new 600W PSU, 2 gigs of RAM and a Saphire 3870(? I think thats the one I ordered...) in the mail, it should arrive Thursday.

You oughtta be set then You can probably even try out the demo on your current rig, always nice to get a feel for it first. But yeah, gut the HP and save mobo/processor upgrades for a later date (I've been holding off for about 2 years). I don't have any experience with ATI cards (I've been a Geforce junkie since day one) but it should run flawlessly on your rig. While my processor isn't strong (2.5ishGhz single core) I think my 9800GT carries the extra weight without breaking a sweat.

Hope come Thursday you're able to get into it

Yeah, the lousy thing is, the day the parts come in, im spending the weekend away from my gaming rig! lol. Well, since you have the same stuff I do (Same starting point) I might be looking to you when I go into more advanced upgrades. Downloading the demo... whenever I find it.
