sup man, that card will fit perferctly in your mobo, but just for curiosity, what case do you have?

hey man, just one more question, whats your budget, i think you should get a better card, i have that one right now and you wont be able to play all the games at maximum, and what PSU do u have?

 

[Guest]

sup man, i think the best option for your budget would be the 9800 gtx+, or the gts 250 witch are basically the same, or if you want to go for ATI you can go for the HD 5770, your choice man.

with the 9800 gtx+ and the gts 250 you have physx and cuda, and with the HD 5770 you have dx11 support whitch i think is more future proof.

sup man, did u installed the lastest drivers???? here is the link for u to install the drivers from the nvidia site

http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us


and in the bios just check if your primary display is from the pci-e slot, and also you can go to the device manager to check if your display dapter is the 9800 gtx

 

[mikeb301]

im getting frustrated. Im running 4gig RAM 9800gtx running Bad Company 2 all low settings 1280x1024 and getting 20fps. What could be the problem? I updated and checked Display adapter

 

[lilotimz]

your processor...

socket 939 aint going to cut anything and no doubt is bottlenecking your card....

bc2 loves powerful CPUs...

 

[mikeb301]

whats a good processor i should upgrade to

 

[megagabobe1]

man, just check your drivers, i was able to play bad company 2 with a pentium d dual core e2200 at 2.2Ghz with 1mb cache.

you can also check if u connected everything okay in you case

 

[lilotimz]

939 has been EOL'd long ago. Gotta upgrade everything...

If on a budget, try an AMD Anthlon II X3 -> ~$600-800

If you got up to $1000~ , get an i5 and the things you need for that...
