I want to buy a Geforce 4 graphics card so I can play Mafia now and Deus Ex 2 when it comes out. I want to buy the graphics card for £100 now or in the next month but I was wondering if I should wait until Deus Ex 2 comes out because if I buy a graphics card now then it might not be powerful enough to run Deus Ex 2 when it comes out in the first half of 2003.

If I bought a Creative Geforce 4 64Mb graphics card now would I be able to run Deus Ex 2 very well when it comes out in 2003?

Thanks if you can help.

My PC has the following:
Windows ME
800mhz Intel Cerelon CPU
256Mb ram
40 gb harddrive

a GeForce 4 will play any game relelased next year, and the year after that probably, so that's not a problem.

What IS a problem is your fairly outdated processor and horrific lack of RAM.
