Battlefield 2 Does your notebook work??

mu ha ha ha....
After raising my X1600's core speed by 50 Mhz and the memory by 30 Mhz... i am able to max everything out. The AA is x6, the resolution is topped, all the lights, terrains, geometries and effects are set to High. There is no lag and the game works above 25Fps even while im flying in a plane.
Who said that X1600 512 HyperMemory sux?!?!??!

 

We never did mate

Is that playing at native resolution? Thats just incredible... man a half year ago no one could play BF2 maxed out, now even notebooks play it great!
By the way are we talking here about offline modus Vlad I?

Charlie-Peru

 

Well, due to my silly connection at this schoo, i never go to servers with more than 32 people.
In single player, i use the mod for the 64-player sized maps and have 60 bots playing with me at all times. Works like a charm...

 

Now I'm running
e1705:
T2500 (2.0 GHz DuoCore)
2GB Ram
Nvidia 7800 Go
100GB HD 5400 (No CD Crack. My DVD Rom is noisy)

Every setting as high as it can go. ANd it plays with no problem what-so-ever.

 

that's good to hear, contemplating a E1705 with Go7900. That must be sweet for BF2

 

If my setup runs it this nicely, you're, with the same config, would run it a little nicer, and a lot cooler.

 

BF2 works on my laptop smoothly. Maybe 30-40fps.

Settings: Everything medium except geometry (high)
AA 2x
100% View Distance


Uniwill 259EN3
1.86 Pentium M
6600Go
1 Gig Ram
60GB 5400

 

Grizzle. how much RAM dose your 6600 have?

 

i am able to play with EVERYthing MAxed with AA on 4x @ 1024x786 resoliution.

 

256MB. Not Shared Memory or anything.

 

Thats about what you should get. On its desktop counterpart, the GeForce 6600 performs very similarly.

 

Hi i was just wondering why my laptop keeps turning off and displaying the blue screen of death when i play BF2 for longer than 25 minutes, i have an alienware and they arnt being very helpful about it, i read that it might be overheating, it does get very very hot and could i do anything to cool it down while i use it or something like that? I havnt patched it yet because i am using a proxy server so i cant download too much but will that improve the game?

I have an intel pentium 4 2.77 ghz and ati radeon mobility 9000 128mb with 1 gb of ram Thanks!!

 

Sounds like you're overheating - Pentium 4-based notebooks get very warm. I would suggest getting a can of air and blowing out your vents, and also get a cooling pad. I recommend the Spire Pacific Breeze, it's only about $15 from Newegg.com. It will help a lot.

 

Yup my notebook can run BF2 mostly everything high and turned up.

 

Pentium M 1.7Ghz
1gig DDR2 Ram
Geforce 6400 Turbo cache (64+64)

Can run BF2 at 1024x768, view distance 100%, settings on medium and some low, about 35-60 frames a second.

 

Will BF2 work sexyly on this computer ?
I'll be buying it today and will get 1 or 2 games at the same time.

Asus Z92T-AP010H

2,85 kg
AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile TL50
1,6 GHz / 200 MHz
1 Go DDR2
100 Go / 5400 tours/min
15,4" WXGA
TFT ColorShine
nVidia GeForce Go 7600
256 Mo dedicated
1280 x 800

I know I won't get maximum sexy settings, but I still would like the game to look good.

 

Im pretty sure you will be able to run it on full settings at native resolution. I dont see why not.

 

oki doki - thanks man !

 

I just ordered a new laptop with the following specs:

HP Pavilion dv5000t customizable Notebook PC

* Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo processor T2500 (2.0 GHz)
* 128MB NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) Go 7400
* 2.0GB DDR2 SDRAM (2x1024MB)
* 120 GB 5400 RPM SATA Hard Drive


What can I expect in terms of quality and framerate from Battlefield 2?

Thanks.

 

you pretty much have the exact same specs as I, it should run great

 

OBVIOUSLY does not work on my Inspiron 8100:

1.3Ghz PIII
256MB RAM
nVidia GeForce Go 2 32MB
40GB IDE 5400rpm HDD

I need a new laptop....

 

i just got a E1505 and i have BF2 running quite nice:

t2500
1gb ram
x1400
60gb sata
xp mce

it seems to run at alot higher settings in single player (smaller maps and less action), i had alot of stutter issues until i installed the omega drivers. now i run at a mix of lows and meds and the game still looks fantastic on the monitor.

i must admit, i think i should have just went for the m1210 but i think i saved $500 with the E1505

 

I apologize for having to "revive" this topic, but I will be getting a new notebook soon and was wondering if this could run Battlefield 2. It is an HP in the dv6000z series. I have looked at the System Requirements page on the Battlefield 2 website, however I am not sure if everything is supported. Also, no information on what sound card the dv6000z series of HP notebooks has.

- Genuine Windows XP Home Edition
- AMD Turion(TM) 64 X2 Mobile TL-52 (1.60GHz/512KB)
- 15.4" WXGA Widescreen (1280x800)
- 256MB NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) Go 7200
- 1.0GB DDR2 SDRAM (2x512MB)
- 100 GB 5400 RPM SATA Hard Drive
- Super Multi 8X DVD+/-R/RW w/Double Layer Support

I know better than to expect that this will run Battlefield 2 on the highest settings, but I hope it will be able to at least run it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

 

Eh, its iffy, the 7200 doesnt have alot of power under the hood, and im worried about the processor more. It would probably run fine, but if you ever had a problem and needed support you would be screwed, the minimum specs are like 1.7ghz and even if your computer runs it fine they will tell you thats your problem and not help you at all. You could possibly get away with low low settings, but its do-able.

 

So does that mean everything will be compatible and can work, just with the lowest settings? I can work with that, as long as it can run Battlefield 2 okay. I tried installing on my old desktop, but lo and behold, my video card was not compatible. I was also worried about the processor, but I see that others with around 1.6 GHz were able to get it running, so I was not entirely sure.

 

I can't say you can run it for sure, but I will say that it is more than likely you will have no problems running it on low settings. Anyway, what are you paying for this notebook? There are alot of cheap cheap laptops out there that could take on bf2 much easier. Eh, it should run bf2, but I can't gaurentee high frame rates even at low settings, but then again I could be underestimating the power of that card (and your processor) and you might get playable frame rates easily. Its hard to say, but I'm curious to see what you have to say about looking at other laptops.

 

I already have the model ordered. The notebook is primarily for work, with a side of games. I was just hoping I might be able to play Battlefield 2 with it.

If need be, I could pay an extra $50 for the TL-56 (1.8 GHz) processor, but I would rather stay with the current configuration. The whole setup already costs $1,162.

What I want to avoid is buying another copy of Battlefield 2 for yet another $50, only for it to not even work. I know you are not guaranteeing that it will work or anything, I would just like opinions.

 

It should run BF2, considering that the game runs on an integrated X200M. And the processor will be just fine. Make sure you get one of the Turion X2's that has 2x 512k cache.

 

Yeah, it will run, I was just worried about him not getting playable frame rates. I didn't realize it was an X2, hmm, I need to read the fine print more often.

 

Thank you very much for the help.

Before I go out and buy the game, should I try running the demo? Does the demo have the same system requirements (and same demands on the system) as the full game? I know that in multiplayer, depending on the number of people in the server, my processor might not do as well as it did in the demo, though.
Just hoping the demo might give me an idea of how it will run...

Thanks again.

 

Hey Fusion.

I have almost the same HP notebook, the dv6000, but with:

AMD Turion X2 TL-56
2GB of DDR2 RAM
120GB Hard Drive

I have the same GeForce Go 7200, and Battlefield 2 runs pretty sweet at 1024x768 with all details set to high. I use this laptop to play on my LAN here at my home, or on the internet. It works great!

See ya!

 

Oh yeah, the only graphical glitch I have, is with the ground when you're using an external view, or climbing a ladder, and looking around.

Apparently there's some new Omega drivers that will work for this 7200 Go, so I'm going to try those out.

 

Hi all, I am thinking of getting :
This Laptop

How will it run BF2 ?

That is:

# Intel Core Duo Processor T2300E 1.66GHz
# 120GB Hard Drive
# 1024MB DDR II RAM Memory
# NVIDIA GeForce Go 7300

 

I'm coming onto this thread late but to answer the question: HELL YEAH!!!

 

Is that answering my question?

 

It will run it, but just not at very good settings & resolution. You would be best served completing the FAQ in the What Should I Buy forum so we can recommend you some machines.

 

thanks very much will make a post in that forum

 

HELL NO!!!

 

hmmmmm.....does anyone kno how high i will be able to put the settings if i have the geforce go 7900GS, T2500 processor, 1 GB 533 ram and 100GB 5400 on a dell 9400?....
thanks...

*edit* hmm...i tried running everything to high on BF2 using 1600*1200 res and setting AAx4 and every detail to high but i get alot of hiccups and lag......is this normal for such a powerful GPU as the 7900GS?

 

If you look back at my setup, I have the AMD dual-core 1.61 GHz CPU and the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7200. Providing that the multiplayer demo has the same requirements as the full game, I was able to run Battlefield 2 on 1024x768 @ 60 Hertz, with most video settings on medium. It looked nice and, for the most part, ran smoothly. Needless to say, I was happy with the results.

 

The GPU is not your bottleneck, your RAM is. Battlefield 2 demands 2GB of RAM to run without hiccups if you enable the highest resolution textures.

 

Yeah, for BF2 2gb of RAM is best.

The GPU matters, but a 7300, X1300 and up should handle BF2 fine with 2gigs of RAM.

 

mines work GREAT,, smooth, and super fast... BF2 specs are nothing to my system

 

They would'nt be for mine either if I had 2gigs of RAM.

 

Well I am a bit behind in my gaming... seeing as until recently all I had was my crappy desktop. Seven hundrend and something MBs of ram...
But once my new e1750 comes it will be time for me to get some games!
So I was just wonder who well BF2 will work on it...
T7400 (4MB/2.16GHz/667MHz)
2GB, DDR2, 533MHz 2 Dimm
256MB NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS
100GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive

 

5672 and with all the eye candy. The big issue with bf2 is the need for over 1gb of ram. It is essential that you have atleast 1.5gb, as the ram usage is at .9gb-1.3gb when playing.

 

BF2 1.4 Patch is out now.

 

Yay! Another half-ass patch that will do nothing but ruin more of the gameplay.

 

heard 1.3 killed alot of peoples smooth gameplay too.

 

Dos anybodyknow how do I do to run the game in a higher resolution than 1024x768?

I was reading about command lines and so on but could't put it to work on my notebook (P105-S9312) with 1440x900.

=(
