You have a 6600 GT? Can you run Jane's USAF with no problems? Do you have LOMAC, and if you do, how does it run on your system? I'm thinking of buying that or the Radeon 9800Pro, but I'm not sure if USAF runs on that.

so it looks like most of us are ok thats cool...still need to go to a thift store and buy and old junky computer! oh yea btw, whats the difference between ATF and ATF Gold? anybody know?
hey flogger, don't have USAF installed haven't played games in a LONG time...i'll install it and update you on how it runs...most likely it'll have no problems n it'll be smooth as silk...jack up the resolution
as for LOMAC, i had a demo of it and ran it on a GeForceFX 5600, and it wasn't really good...even overclocking the 5600 didn't help...then I got a 5950 ultra and it was MUCH better...trying it with the GeForce 6600/6800 series it should be really good, since the gfx cards were optimized for Doom3 and future titles...what resolution do you usually play @?

I don't care what res I play at, as long as its above 768x1024. Thats what I usually play at. I think I'm going for the 6600GT, or the 9800Pro. Which ever one is the cheapest, I'll buy. If you have the money get the 6800GT and overclock it.
Anyways:
Pentium 2.8 HT
512 DDR
FX5200
20GB HD + 100GB HD
And:
Athlon 2500+
512 DDR
Geforce 4
120GB HD
I need a better graphics card.
