yeah, it requires more CPU power.
Overclocking may help you a bit, though...

I found GoW2 is be faster than GoW1, the opening bit was perhaps a bit slow, but it wasn't bad

I'm gonna upgrade to an E7500 @ 2.93Ghz and a G41 Mobo (don't have more cash) and i will OC the CPU to 3.2Ghz then i should be fine right ?

what do you have now?

a Core 2 duo 2.13GHz (already overclocked from 1.8Ghz its the first core 2 duo model it was expensive 2 years ago )

ah.. not too bad, mine's 2.2 (e2200) just use the IOPx2 and EEx1.5 speedhacks and you'll be fine. I've beaten the game with it running on average 35-40 fps
just run it at native, the limiting factor here will probably be your GPU, as I don't know much at all about ATI cards, I can't say much though

my GPU is fast don't worry (i'm using native Res in all games) ..it's like a 9800 GTX with GDDR4 memory .. wish i can get an I7 but i'm just a student i can't afford it..my father can't too
they say that for gow2 a CPU at 3Ghz can give 50fps + with speedhacks !

I'm almost pushing that with a 2.2, work at it some and you'll get there too

25--45 fps for me..with the main part of speedhack activated and the lastest beta..

try IOPx2 and EE1.5 along with the "recommended" microVU hack
