9800GTX+ isn't enough??? and software overclocking

Specs!

AMD 4400+ Software overclock of 2.6ghz
2GB of infenion ram
9800GTX+ @ 760mhz

OK now i just wanted to throw this in the thread...is my overclock of 400mhz pretty decent for being software? my motherboard is locked and i have some pretty crappy ram...so far from what iv read most can reach 500mhz although that is in the bios and without a voltage increase on the 4400+ albeit im quite content at 400mhz and i would rather not waste money to get a little performance increase as this system intent is a cheap build

ok now to the main problem and creation of this thread

So iv enabled 40vs40 bots on battlefield 2 and im running at the max in game settings...no aa or af optional @ 1280x1024

Now my cpu is overclocked by 400MHZ and im running 2gbs of ram....now i can spawn in battlefield and watch 40 bots just walk side by side no problem it runs butter smooth past 60 fps even...

But when im in a firefight like the picture below i get like 20fps? wth? should it go that low? with just a little trees and bush's in view and like 20 bots on the screen i get low fps?...cpu isn't being maxed...does this game really max the gpu? and the whole time my cpu never hits past 60% and is definitely not being maxed out...im happy about that for sure

Il take some more pics as example so here is one i have so far

Would only having 2gbs of ram be the problem? i would think not considering i have no problem running the game and the added bots run perfectly...atm im just testing this system as another stronger system will soon run on lan with this system and it will run the bots...

anyways enough rambling pics below..

I used to play BF2 with a 8800GT 256mb on my current system and it was flawless, at that resolution your 9800GTX+ should be more than enough.
How much system ram are you using while playing?
I used to play BF2 and when I upgraded my 2gb of ram to 4gb there was a huge difference.

And no one read both posts....

It would seem its a ram problem then...

No its actually the X2...but if it was the limiting factor wouldn't it be maxing out? i mean i still have 40-50% system idle in taskmanager and on speed fan the whole time...and i figured 2gb would be enough as well...my system is optimized to eat the least ram possible

Then again i am trying to run a server on it and play as well....

Hmmm since this game will still be mostly run on lan and the bots will run from another pc im not too worried...

yeah the dual core should be fine. The Ram may help, but I would check what processes are running in the background as well. Stock unneeded services and apps. When was the last time you reformated? I find that I do this once a year or so to keep things running smooth.

Is your GPU stuck in 2D mode? Not sure if the 9800GTX+ does this or not. I know Nvidia started to do the 2D 3D profiles like ATI.
