i reccomend getting a geforce 6800 LE around 150, and unlock the pipes from 4 to 16 (like the 6800 GT which cost around 280)

DAmn I can't go back and edit no more but a week ago newegg had this 6800LE made by leadtech for 130.00 that I now wish I jumped on. Because with all the stuff I'm learning about unlocking pipes and shaders to 6800GT levels it sounds like basically you're turning the 6800LE into a GT for 150 less plus you can overclock it to higher memory speeds.
The only downside I see is that Newegg isn't listing the Newtech 6800LE anymore. Where did it go??? Is it discontinued?

How do I get my game to locate some servers so I can join in or whats the ip to a dedicated server I can join in
Actually you don't need to install Gamespy (in all honesty I would recommend not doing so, the game works fine without it being installed). You need to create a username specifically for the game other than that I don't know why you're not connecting, but you can do so in teh game itself. You then login with that username and password you created.
Have you gotten to the this point?? Sometimes it does take along time to find servers, but in the middle of the search you can tell it to stop (or is it cancel) and it will just pull up what it has found. You can also try to manually enter a server ip address. To find that server IP address I would recommend Googleling 'BF2 weapon unlock server' and that way you know your connection is working properly (it won't be a ranked server, but this is just to test it).

That's a LE
But for a slightly lower speed @ 300mhx (which you can overclock easily), you could have gone with a 6600GT. The 6600GT is very overclocking friendly. I replaced the stock fan with a Zalman Al/Cu and it's running very nicely at 575mhz and 1.2ghz.

I got battlefied on my PC last night. I haven't had time to open up the pipes on my card yet but Im not too sure that Im confident enough to do it. I have to install the patch and I'll be ready to play.
I work night from 8pm-4:30am. I'll probally able to play after I get off of work and before I go in. Hopefully some of you are on around those weird times.
Xfire and gamespy - LYRICALBEATMASTER (its in memory of my late friend who used that as his S/N.)

The new patch is good. Gunnery Sargent! Ya can't rape in the Blackhawk any more but I guess that's fair. Soopa, I added you to my Xfire, just approve it. Who else is on Xfire? Where is this LLC server? I couldn't find it in GameSpy!
Played for 4 hours, my head hurts.

My xfire is huy33.
I've been busy with school but the testing week is almost over. On the weekends, I usually play a lot.
About the guns:
The G3 is BEAUTIFUL. The only negative is that it only has 20 bullets in a clip so use your bullets wisely.
When I'm in a killing mode, I walk around with the nade launcher and shoot the crap out of them when I see them. The key is to aim at their feet and NOT the body mass.
When I'm in a lazy mode, I usually walk around with the NORMAL medic gun and go around capturing flags. I don't kill people in these situtation unless we make eye contact or they're shooting me.
