firslty i think you need to realise that your machine is not high spec
3200+
1 gig ram
2 6600gt is not high spec
try amd 4000+ upwards
2 gig or more ram
2 7800/7900's
thats a super high spec pc
you need more ram for sure

BF2 is a mother of a hog even on ADSL... 
i am sitting with 1GB of RAM and thus far PC tweaking and memory management has made me quite happy with it.
GRAW does push the enveloper far but not impossible with an average PC if you tweak the settings and dont enable overzealous settings in the game.
to be honest, i am not going to upgrade my PC anymore. Got me a X360 just for those games like Oblivion which demand a high-spec PC.
cost for a 7900GTX = >R5000
cost for a X360 Premium = R4300 at Prophecy
a HDTV or at least a progressive scan capable TV set is a requirement for a good visual experience with the X360 but who doesnt have a BIG TV nowadays in their living room?

XBox Live is THE big selling point for these consoleskilladoob said:
Yes, I realize that the upgrade might have to come sooner than what I originally planned.
Does the extra 1GB really make such a big difference ? And, OUCH !! RAM is not all that cheap ! Corsair® 512MB XMS Low Latency -> R 1,158.81... and I need 2 of those...Damn! I should have picked cheaper RAM when I orignially bought the machine...

for most recent games having 2GB does make a difference in loading times.
but yeah, like you saw the prices arent really a walk in the park either. i only have 1GB of Corsair XMS CL2 ( 2x512MB ) and dont need more for now.

well i got 2 stick of corsair value select
its makes a big difference
firstly you can up your aperture size to 256 or 512 meg which helps alot
i think that having 2 gig corsair value select is better than 1 gig corsair xms
