[Cashvalues]

Okay, i need help and i know a bit about computers,
here it goes:

“Required (min) Specs”

CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 2.4 GHz or AMD(R) Athlon(TM) 64 2800+ processor or any 1.8Ghz Dual Core Processor or better supported
RAM: 512MB RAM (768MB for Windows Vista)
Harddrive: 8GB of free hard drive space
Video card (generic): NVIDIA(R) Geforce(TM) 6600 or better or ATI(R) Radeon(R) 9800Pro or better

Those are the requirments, and i want to know how i can make my system better without buying anything besides the game, and i want to make this happen before i buy the game, so here are my systems things:

I know i dont have all the requirments. so can i get them like online? for free?
or clean my computer up to get the space.

Hi, welcome to TSF

Your CPU might just about be ok, but it's below the minimum required, so this could cause the game to run slow with some lag.

256mb RAM is very low for a computer running XP. Upgrade to at least 512mb, preferably 1gb.

You've got enough hard drive space to install the game. Just remember that you need to keep at least 15% free space for Windows and games to run efficiently.

I think the Radeon FSC has only 32 or 64mb of DDR memory. You'll struggle to play a demanding game like CoD4 with such an old graphics card.

To upgrade your computer to meet the game's minimum requirements, you need to buy some more RAM and a better graphics card.

Except the processor, just get all the minimum specs, plus 1 gig of ram and you can run almost any game well.

and you'll need a better PSU to run a better graphics card too

whats your budget for these items
RAM, Graphics card, PSU (I think yu should upgrade the CPU too)

So.. all i need is.
RAM?
and a graphics card?
my budget is like 100$.

[5NIPER_WOLF]

Yeah you can get RAM and a graphics card for under $100

Thanks.

sorry to say that it's not a good idea to upgrade your RAM and video card without upgrading your CPU you will be bottlenecked, it means that the CPU won't be able to catch up with the video card
what is your motherboard brand and model?
I think that it has an AGP slot saying that you have an old card
and also the motherboard could be DDR1 so upgrading to a 1 gig of ram could cost you a lot (old RAM are expensive)
so the best thing to do is to get a new PC, cause upgrading your current PC won't do a good, you'll waste your money, sorry for the bad news, I'm just trying to help
just to make sure, download CPUz from my sig and open it,
take a screenshot of :
the "mainboard" tab and the "Memory" tab
and post them here

I got a 2 sticks of 1 GB DDR ram for about $25.00 in a package. It's CDN (Canadian) of course.
