I havent noticed that many FPS games that need a really beefy CPU most are memory and GPU hogs an average CPU (by average I mean p4 2.8 or AMD 3000) should get you threw most FPS games just fine. Another question to ask is will huxley support dual core CPU's I know that Dual cores tend to screw with games like BF2 & FEAR, there are fixes but its still an annoying.

Anything and everything screws with BF2. BF2 was/is the biggest piece of junk code on the planet. It's fantastic when it works, looks beautiful, and the guns are un-realistic. Balance in the gameplay is debateable, but oh well. Needless to say i'm playing CS until Huxley drops.

There's something horribly ironic about your post. Maybe it's the fact that CS is everything you described, although it's not quite as buggy as BF2, but that's probably because it's been out longer.

CS has none of the balance issues that BF2 has. Maybe it's because there aren't any vehicles in CS.
In CS I don't CTD ever! In BF2 I CTD all the time.
In CS I don't get lag issues and my ping is as it should be. In BF2 it lags all of the time and depending on the map it's unplayable for everybody and my ping is always on the high side.
CS guns are unrealistic, but atleast they're predictable. Hopefully Huxley has none of these types of issues. BF2 could've been a great game and still can be, but not until the bugs are fixed.

Oh, okay, I had thought you were saying that CS guns were realistic.

Well, I went to yahoo financial and looked up their converter, it seems that the current exchange rate,

3000 AUD = 2,278 USD
or
1 AUD = 0.76 USD

man...the prices in the US sound really cool compared to the crap they give us in Aus. It still don't beat Asia though, I found out a friend of mine came back and for the price I paid on this machine he could have got 2 back in China, although, carrying was abit of a pain in the ass, oh well, it gets the job done =D

You have to rember the xbox 360 is just running the game and keeping the connection, and not doing the hundreds of things a cpu is doing at any given time. I would go for alot of RAm if your going to play on a pc.

I have a 360 but il play it on pc because i want to play with my old gaming friends as well


Currently i've got a fairly average

AMD 64 3200+
2gb DDR400
X800 256 XL

However il be going for an upgrade this year and i cant be arsed to build one and have seen lower spec'd Alienwares dumping all over my higher spec machine performance wise so im going to bite the bullet and spend about £2000 (probably about $3200) on getting a high end Alienware, only I'll have to specify that it has 2gb as for some reason all their standard models are still 1gb only.

At some point I'll also get Windows Vista so that all the 64 bit and duel core stuff works properly and probably before i get that upgrade il get a 20" or 24" (depending on funds) LCD display. Having seen the difference a 24" LCD display makes on a friends PC its certainly a huge plus, but im not sure its worth it at current prices, the 20" widescreen displays certainly seem like the best "bang for buck".
