I have all the required stuff, but the specs say I would at least need a GeForce 6600 or Radeon 9800. So would it still run, or does the card version change something >_>.

you may be able to run at minimum settings at 800x600.
I'd suggest downloading the demo to try it out first, unless you feel like possibly losing money.
128 MB cards aren't gonna get you very far. This means tiny resolutions.
Upgrade.

I'm going to upgrade no matter what. I'll try getting the Demo, even though I don't think there is one.

First rule of thumb with games on PC: try to find a demo first.

Regardless of enjoyment, I mean from a can-i-play-it perspective. If you're not sure, get a demo.

Almost every computer that came originally with XP could run the Valve games. They don't need that much.

Not true.
My old computer could barely run Half-Life2.

Can You RUN It? (http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest)

It's a website that gathers your specs and compares them to the minimum and recommended specs of the games, telling you if you can run it.

Well, I got to playing to playing the demo and testing. After I overclocked my card I'm getting 30-40 on full screen and 60-70 on the lowest resolution the game offers. The online battles in the full game are nowhere near as hectic as that mission was, so I'll go ahead and get it.
