PIII 933 MHz
512MB RAM
GF2 MX
Sound Blaster Live!
Windos 2000 Professional Finnish
Samsung SyncMaster 950p 19"
CH F-16 CombatStick + CH Throttle + CH Pro Pedals
Dual ISDN 128k

This system is faster in Windows usage than my work pc IBM 1.6GHz 256MB Win2k, IBM sux! :) OTOH this clearly shows that 512MB RAM is reasonable in Win2k.

Homebuilt Special

Athlon 950
A7V Motherboard
GeForce2 MX 32 MB
384 Megs of Ram
20 Gig Western Digital HD
Sound Blaster Live
Win 98 SE

In 1024X768 I get an average of about 40 to 50 FPS, in a furball sometimes it drops to 20-25 but still very playable.

I for one do not want to see HiTech hold back on the upgrades because of antiquated systems that are owned by some players.
I also realize that some of us do not have the funds or resources to immediately build Uber Machines...

I saved up my money, waiting almost 6 months , in order to build the system I currently have...  The only reason I upgraded was because of this game...  It was well worth it IMHO.  :)

My original system shot craps, cpu fried...
I went to my business computer (Dell) and started flying...  I used the Dell for the interim  
Although my FR were horrido, I still enjoyed the game.  Sure, I was not a lethal threat to anyone in the MA... But then even at the new frame rates I'm not a lethal threat to anyone...  :rolleyes:

Original System Specs.

450 mhz
ASUS K5 MB
256 ram
Voodoo3
Frame rates ran in 30's and 40's

Interim System Specs

Dell
433mhz
onboard sound & video
Frame Rates ran in teens

New System Specs

1.73 Gig
512mb 2700 ddr ram
Geforce2 gts 64mb
Maxtor 7400 rpm HD
Frame Rates in 60's  rarely dropping in high 40's in smoke/furballs

You smell that? Do you smell that?
Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
The smell, you know that gasoline smell, smelled like victory.
