optimum pc setup for ff7?
« on: 2011-05-22 09:27:35 »
assuming i were going to build a system with ff7 in mind, though i also play ffxi, what type of video processor and cpu platform would you suggest? how about operating system?

im currently using a P4 3.2GHzprescott with a Radeon x800 XT(256 mb vram) ang 1Gig of ram on WinXP

As an alternate, bearing in mind those are the only games i really play for the foreseeable future, should i switch to an Nvidia card that's on the AGP platform this computer uses? I see newegg still sells them. Using the hi res mods for ff7 really stutters sometimes on my current setup, though mostly the game runs flawless even with 4x/8x aa/af. The major thing that bothers me is the old ATI videocard and AMD's legacy drivers. Somethings missing there and I dont see AMD fixing it ever.

I appreciate any input!
