Then you ain't going to be playing Unreal 2 playably. I forget which, but GF4MXes are either tarted-up GF2s or cut-down GF3s. Either way, they simply can't cut it for anything semi-recent. (I'd be surprised if they managed Soldier of Fortune 2, that one stresses my GF4 Ti4400 quite a bit) Your choices are to upgrade your power supply (easy enough to do, buy new PSU, remove old one, install new one. You'll need a power screwdriver to get the screws out probably but who doesn't have access to one of those in this day and age?) or not play Unreal 2 acceptably. (I've got a 500W PSU, AthlonXP 2000+, 512MB DDR RAM and a 128MB GF4 Ti4400 and Unreal 2 runs like crap most of the time) -- DW's PSO Ep1&2 characters (GC only) Sasami (L129 REDRIA FOnewearl) Sakura (L118 PINKAL RAmarl) Chibi Moon (L64 VIRIDIA HUnewearl) Minako (L23 ORAN FOnewearl)
