4830 lag in counter strike: source-only on certain maps

[fLax11]

system: e6600 core 2 duo

2 gb ram

radeon 4830 @ 1680 X 1050

250 gb hd

fresh install of windows 7, updated drivers



i will be playing de_nuke or de_inferno ONLY and get very noticable, annoying lag the whole time(my fps drops to 30-40 and my ping sky rockets to 200-400). any other map is perfectly fine. i just wiped and cleaned out my old drivers and installed the new catalyst update from today and no dice still. any ideas?

4830 is a weak card for 1680x1050 gaming.

i run every other map at 100 fps constant just fine with no fps drops

yeah...I got 40-60 avrg on my 8500GT back in day on 1680x1050...Perhaps the stage is big and it is a case of write-reading of data to and from your RAM?

 

[fLax11]

so are you saying that it's my system memory or the memory on my graphics card that is the problem

 

[staalkoppie]

...but I'm still not sure what any of this has to do with your ping

Check your internet connection....To much data in a big map can be bottlenecked by a low bandwidth, causing your ping to skyrocket and throttles your game
