For laptops:Toshiba and Asus put out the best products for the money, in my opinion; and AMD is for Gamers, not gaming, both companies have really good products; but AMD has branched out to the Overclockers and Gamers in the Computer world as they sell for cheap and you can pump out a lot of performance, for what you paid for. Intel probably gives you a few more frames, but would cost 2-4 times more than an equally spec'd processor.
A desktop now a days, will range anywhere from $500+ for something decent. BF2 doesn't really require much. As long as you are above the recommended spec's you will be fine.
Also, are you talking about BF2(Battlefield 2) or BC2(Bad Company 2?) A lot of people call the new title of the Battlefield series, "BF2" as the performance greatly relies on that answer.
I had an Acer Aspire 5516, which ran Battlefield 2 and the expansions pretty well. It had a Dual Core TK-42 1.6GHz Processor, 3GB DDR2 RAM and an X1200 512MB Video Card.
This website will not give you an exact answer, but it will give you the recommended specs and will suggest you to Upgrades, if it is deemed necessary. http://cyri.systemrequirementslab.com/CY鈥?/a>
The first computer I built, ran me about $800, with a 23" 1920x1080 monitor. It was, of course an AMD PC; which I am still using, with a few upgrades (XFX 4770 went to an XFX 5850) 2GB of RAM went to 6GB. I'm selling this one now and will be building another, within the next month.What cheap desktop or laptop can play Battlefield 2 on low-high settings smoothly?
1) If you're on a budget, all of those brands are bad. Build it yourself- you'll get twice as much power for the cost.
2) Intel is more powerful, AMD is cheaper. So yeah, you're probably going to want AMD.
3) You're probably not going to get a machine in that range. Battlefield has pretty high specs, particularly if you want to play it smoothly. Any half way decent GPU will cost well over $100, and you need a half-way decent GPU. The recommended quad-core processor will also set you back quite a bit. Plus the motherboard, RAM, hard drive, and so on. There's no such thing as a cheap good gaming machine.What cheap desktop or laptop can play Battlefield 2 on low-high settings smoothly?
I bought a Dell 1564 with an i3 intel 2.13, 4GB RAM and 512mb ATI as a quick replacement laptop when my Alienware's motherboard burned, apparently from overheating. Anyways, a friend lent me both Assasin's Creed 2 and Modern Warfare 2, which we tested with full textures and effects. I did have to set the resolution at 1280x720 for smoother gameplay instead of the full 1366x768. I preferred the slightly smaller 1280x720 with full effects, rather than full resolution in 'normal' settings. I really bought it for work, but I am happier with it than the AW.
