The higher the resolution you have the more of a FPS drop you will get yes, what are your specs so we can see what monitor to get.

I am hoping to max out all settings and run it at 1920 x 1080, here are my specs:

AMD Phenom 2 965 BE 3.4 GHz

6 GB DDR3 1600 MHz ram

Dual ATI Radeon 5770 in crossfire

There the 3 main things you'll need, do you think i will be able to max it?

[QUOTE="jack_jackass"]

will windows 7 32-bit detect and run all 4 gigs of my ram? I remember windows XP 32-bit not detecting 4 gb, so will win7?

No, you need a 64 bit OS.

Really? Aww man, how much memory will a 32 bit system detect?
