DISCLAIMER: ALL of what follows is under the assumption that my sys is actually capable of whatever it's doing and it's not just my luck that's working overtime. If anyone's 'phoenixated' hopes fall back to the ashes..well, sorry.
@ice ur seriously overestimating these games reqs dude! (except FarCry of coz where everything is an underestimation) Ask someone who's got a dustbin for a comp and u'll know. (NOTE: The DISCLAIMER attains some serious priority here. )
@nix, PoP:WW will run with no problems whatsoever. Why? Cuz it works on THIS -> PIII 866,128MB RAM and SiS 32MB PCI card. Take that! It's a li'l unstable on my sys. But the extra RAM and the added GPpower might take care of that. I'm not sure abt PoP:SoT however cuz I haven't tried it and besides it needs a slightly better setup than mine. But since u've got an overall better rig, it might work.
HL2 - just might, but it'll be veeeery slow, since it needs some serious processing muscle and LOTsa RAM.
DIII - only if ur luckier than me!
UT2k3 should be a breeze. Works smooth enuf on my rig. Needless to say,don't expect the same with the other games. They WILL be pretty slow. It doesn't matter though. U n me r lucky enuf to play them in the first place. In fact it's an advantage for me in PoP since I've got enuf time to plan my next move. Duh.
I dunno abt NOLF2.
