Have a GF2 ultra in my AH rig at home (45 fps or so at max res) and a GF2 mx400 here at work...no AH loaded yet...waiting on 1.11 before I load up again. Seems like a lot of overkill for AH, really dont gain much with a "good rig"...or am I wrong. I've got a PIII 800 with 512 pc133 at home and and the GF2 ultra and it's always been fine (have the right drivers loaded). My work rig is a AMD 1400 with 512 DDR on an ASUS A7M266 MB with a mx400 card. I dont play AH at all on it but have DOD fired up at 5:30 or so most days for a little bit. Seems to run it great at max res on line. Keep wanting to upgrade something but haven't in over a year...no need to so far. Unless your running total junk I'd hold off till Dx 9 is out and we see what hitech will do when/if they go to new engine...bet the 9700pro will be bout $130 in June 2003.
