I know there are alot of posts about this, but I was wondering if I need to upgrade again, heres my spec:

AMD Opteron 180 (Dual Core @ 2.4Ghz)
Asus A8N-SLI
2 GIG PC3200 DDR RAM
GeForce 7600 GT

I want to play at 1024*768 with all/most details at high.

I ran the 'yougamers' meter and it said my grpahics card is slightly less than what is reuired for HL2:Episode 2 :|
 
lol. Should be fine.
srtest.com
my laptop passed with integrated intel graphics.
 
1024x768 should be more than playable. Might not be able to do full AA/AF but then again I never do and I have a X1900GT.
 
You'll be able to run it just fine, hell crank the resolution up to 1280 x 1024 and turn everything all the way up.

That system is nearly identical to mine, except my 7600 is OC'ed.
And I have an AMD Athlon XP 2800+ 2.09ghz.
 
WOW, I didn't think my machine was up to scratch. I cant play Bioshock at high settings so I though HL2: Epi2 was a more demanding game judging by its graphics.

I can overclock my 7600GT to 631 / 770, not bad considering the stock speeds are 560 / 700

That's strange considering that I can... hm.
 
I was able to use 4xAA and 16xAS when I had my 7600GT, so you should be fine. But at the moment it all comes down to refer our processors can handle the new dynamic shadows that they are implmenting. You have a dual core so you should be able to use it at reasonable frame rate, hopefully.
