So I wonna play CoH2 with my Dad from time to time as we play/ed CoH all the time and all other WW2 RTS games so for that I need some cheap but decent video card so it would run on his PC

and I think on getting this video card it should run it on mid settings right ?

Well, I have just about no experience with cards under $100, but at a glance I would guess it should run at low to mid settings.(provided the pci-e slot is open)

Especially considering that guy on these forums who got onboard graphics to run it with ultra-low settings and driver experimenting.

Yup, that card should run CoH2 on lowest settings. it just depends on his CPU if you're going to have frame rate issues.

My best guess is that it runs at around minimum settings, again limited experience though.

@WiFi At What resolution, what processor, enough memory? With the latest drivers? If all those are good enough, it can just be as simple as CoH2 is absolutely terribly optimized for some cards. At least it has been better since beta and may get better in the future.
