I'm not really knowledgable on ATI products but seeing that a HD 3600 is from 2008 I severely doubt it's going to be much fun. That card is mightily outdated, I'm afraid.

I'm sure you'll be ok as long as you're not pushing some crazy resolution with FSAA. You might need to disable a few things, but I wouldn't worry as long as the rest of your system is ok.

Do you play Crysis or ARMA II? That should give you some idea.

Yes I bought ARMA 2 Combined Ops. But I had low fps with medium/low settings, no shadows, no AA and low visibility distance so I stopped playing it after 2 hours. What a colossal waste of money.

Well I'm in the same boat. I've got a 5 year old system that used to be bleeding edge, but with a 10 year mortgage right now I'm probably going to wait a while before getting a new system. If you can stand it, wait until Intel/AMD and ATI/Nvidia have each released a next-generation flagship CPU/card so all the current monster CPU/cards drop in price considerably. You'll be playing CoD faster and probably at 1/2 the price of the people who are right now dropping their money on hardware to play it.

That is exactly what I'm planning to do, but I'll buy COD only when I'll have new computer.

S!

Genbrien..still many fall to the box pics and assume the minimum is same as the pics on the box. For example a parent buying the game to the happy gamer etc. There is always a whiner that why oh why does the game not look this or that even the system is as listed in minimum. Got it?

I do know not to trust the minimum..just for the overkill and you will be fine
