Actually, with that PC, I don't think with he'll get 4 FPS in 640x480 resolutions with everything on low...he's going to get much, much higher. I know because I can get 30-40 FPS in 640x480 resolution with everything on high (except decals), with an Intel integrated card and only 248 RAM.

YA, I know, it was called a crappy joke. Because you can barly get a decnt frame rate on halo. I have a crap PC, thats actualy pretty good.

P.S. Get used to my crappy jokes, I'll be here for a while.

That's disgusting. I hate you so much.

I'd like to upgrade myself, but since my motherboard is already supporting the fastest compatible chipset, I'm going to wait until Vista drops (actually, maybe a few months after) and then shell out a stupid amount of money for a new mobo, memory, processor, and dx10 graphics card.

Enjoy your new rig. Get fraps going and make some pretty montages for us to watch.

I'm happy for you, Grunt! Dude, with good specs like those, screw Halo. Just go buy FEAR, Act of War: Direct Action, Company of Heroes, Doom 3, Half Life 2, Counterstrike Source, whatever - these games look much better and I'm pretty sure you'll be able to play them at high resolution with maxed settings.

Oh, she's getting loaded up alright. Halo will always be my first love though. The really annoying part is going to be transfering all my homebrew stuff from the old comp to the new one.

Moving the Halo stuff over won't be too bad, but I've got 10 gigs worth of Unreal stuff.

I can't wait to dial everything up to max in Halo, and then set some Grunts on fire!

I can always buy more RAM later, and it's only going to get cheaper. This was kind of a use it or lose it deal; I paid an obscenely low price for that system, less than a thousand US dollars.

I've tried out my Co-op mods on it with everything dialed to the max. Wasted rocket launcher rounds on Grunts just so I could watch them zoom through the air on fire like little wailing comets.

I have an sli rig with 2 gig ram, intel pentium D cpu at 3 Ghz, and two nvidia geforce 6800 GT's. Runs halo with every setting as high as it goes, including eax in the audio average, 80 fps. So I would think that that amd rig there will do better. Cept for the ram.
