It doesnt matter what card you have your screen will always go blurry when hit by arti or near a tank, you can never stop that unless you screw around with the games code then you would be hacking. I have a bfg 7900gt oc and i gotta say my game play runs real clean and the grafix is bad @ss.

specs: amd fx-57 cpu, bfg 7900gt oc vga, 550ultra x-connect psu, 2gb ocz gamer extreme memory, 1 wd raptor harddrive, zalman cooling for cpu & vga, running all on a samsung 1200nf 22" crt monitor.

NVidia 6800GT or above.
ATi Radeon X800 or above.

You should be able to run all high with those.

That's actually true. I had a problem with my "new" mobo and could only run AGP on 1x so I had to turn almost everything to low. Shadows and most of the smokes didn't show and I was surprised what visibility I had. Was easy to see the enemies. Also their shadows (only time) would actually show through walls if they were behind a wall

It hit me that perhaps many "hardcore" players use these settings, I considered them a little as cheating though. After getting the AGP to work I turned up the settings to normal levels because I like BF2 also because it have beautiful graphics and I prefer that over being l33t
