geforce 6100 is an integrated graphics chipset (graphics built-in to the motherboard) Nforce4 is a motherboard chipset that does not necessarily have integrated video, but uses PCI Express, so you need to add a PCI-E videocard. If you are a big gamer, you don't want to use integrated graphics, you want to use a separate videocard.

Right, Nforce4 is the better solution, but both are Nvidia (aka Nforce) chipsets.

it all depends on what resolutions you want and your ram and cpu also... but for this game mostly gpu and ram

i had same thing-integrated 6100 on my machine so i put in evga 7800gt co and 1 more gb of ram and fell flat on my butt when i maxed the settings out... graphics are amazing, there are some environments in the game where i really cant tell difference if its the game or the real world... and no problems with fps whatsoever with settings maxed out ( btw not only bf2, also cod2, far cry and every new gen game - dont know about fear because i dont have it at this moment, i heard this one is taxing even high-end systems big time )

so to sum it all up for you...

if you are a big bf2 gamer get at least 7800gt and 2 gb of ram ( if you can afford it of course )

i was sceptical at first too but when i saw the difference in graphics between integrated 6100 and 7800gt it almost made me cry :P

( but first make sure that your mobo is pci express compliant )


good luck
