    I would say yes, from what i've read on the net this is the card to get if you want a good performance, The Memory Clock is 1050MHz & the Core Clock is 525MHz i would say that's very good for the price, you may find it cheaper thou, i plan on getting the same one except for AGP. Am sure other people that have this card will let you know how it works for games like battlefield 2.

    You should read this review for more info on it, http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1774897,00.asp

    hope this helps.

    Yeah the 6600GT is about the best mid range card you can get at the mo, but you might want to hold off for a while, with the release of the 7800GTX and the soon 7800ultra it means that 6800 prices will come down by a fair bit ...so you could end up with a nice 6800GT/ultra at a very resonable price indeed....and the 6600GT plays BF2 very nicely ;)
