GeForce 9500 GT

I have:

Intel Core i7 920 2.67Ghz
6GB RAM
GeForce 9500 GT

How well will I be able to run Battlefield Bad Company 2? I'm worried about the graphics card. From the Can You Run It website I meet the minimum requirements but not the recommended.

What settings do you think I will be able to run it on and will it be good?

What upgrades if necessary do you recommend?

Ok so I'm thinking of upgrading the graphics card. Which one will last me a good few years?

Also to get HD, what matters. just the graphics card and the monitor?

with a system like that, the least you could have gotten is a gtx470/ati 5850

i would too but theres no need for it hahaha why spend the money on a camero when you live in downtown beijing (china) and wouldnt get far by car anyway :P

i had a 9500gt up until start of this year. was a great card for runing HAWX at full settings......but any unreal engine 3 game would run bearable but with no sexy motion blur. go grab a 4850 or above and u'll not look back! just make sure that a fulll size card will fit in ur case (a slim card like a 9500gt might mean u havea slim tower? otherwise there shoulda beena gts 240 in there)

Why wouldn't I want DX11? Is there something wrong with it? :?

Specs of power supply? Can I find this out without opening my PC?

So the 5770 will last at least 2 years on max settings and will fit in my case.
I think its about £130 so that may be ok.

But on the AMD website it says: 450 Watt or greater power supply with one 75W 6-pin PCI Express power connectors recommended (600 Watt and two 6-pin connectors for ATI CrossFireX technology in dual mode). So won't I need a new power supply no matter what, if that is the card I get?

I'm not sure but I think the PSU came with my case.Marvi_I

Also here's a link to a 5770 at overclockers UK as well
