Building a new pc

[Xbrid]

You should be able to get a rig with these components pretty cheap...
AMD K6-2 500mhz..
GeForce MX440
128mb SD ram
4GB HDD
And if you want to throw in the long yards... maybe even a 4x CD writer... lol

You're insane. You CAN NOT build a computer for under 800 bucks that will play BF2 at more than 4fps (or at all). The wonderfull thing about BF2 is that it doesn't support old hardware, so the stuff you would have to buy with a back-pocket budget like that wouldn't even boot the menu. Unfortunately my friend, you will have to save up some more beans before you take the plunge. If that is all you can afford, I'd say wait for the next gen consoles and buy one of them... as much as it pains me to say that.

thats a little harsh. if he didnt need monitor, speakers, OS, and all that crap, he can get a system that will play BF2.

Actually, if you're willing to hit some computer markets and ebay and stuff...
My PC cost about $380USD to build, and its dual procc.
