Ok guys this is the crunch....
I'm upgrading my PC; I'm doing this on a budget so I can't afford the top notch hardware...
My old PC had an AMD Sempron 2800 1.6Gz with 768Mb PC3200 and running a rather nice ATI 9800 pro 128Mb... This setup has served me well.
The new system will be, an Athlon 64 Dual Core 4800 2.5Gz x2, Corsair 2Gb PC2-6400, and a Nvidia 8600GT 512Mb....
Running with XP pro...
Just wondering how much of a step up the 8600GT 512mb is from the ATI 9800 pro 128mb in regard to IL2...(I want the extras processing power for DVD backups and .mp4 conversion....Dual core makes a massive difference in this regard....)
