I do know Im going with a single core AMD, but Im not quite sure if AGP is obsolete to PCI 16x express in concerns to the video card.

I also heard going above 2GB of memory is pretty useless for gaming.

Suggestions?

What would be a good video card setup for this game so I can have things like anti-aliasing on and atleast have a nice mixture of high/medium settings?
my input get a Duel core if amd get a 2.4 ghz or greater they are like 120$ so dont fret even 3.0 ghz am2 sockets are only like 160$ 2g+ Ram which is also cheap, and a PCIE x16 DX10 Comp G-card though a 7900gt greater should suffice, but who wants to be normal when you can max stuff :P. if you dont have broadband my heart goes out to you. and no dont listen to that rubbish 2g is great, but 4 is better, im going to say depending on what you are doing/ gaming.if you are running eq2 or VG then you will want 4g ram to get to max settings, o just to raid on it. if you are doing just fps then 2g is more than enough when im playing BF2142 i dont go over 40% usage in ram and i have it maxed/ listing to music/ other random crap on second screen. as always stick to GOOD brands Asus, Corsair, and such no off brand stuff it goes bad to quickly. for your mobo you will want a 939,AM2, or a LGA 775 socket
