I already know the answer to my question, or at least I think I do.
I have a 4 year old computer with a Core Duo 2 2.8 mHZ processor. My mother board is just as old and the ram is upgraded (lets call it a year and a half ago)
Battlefield 3 came out and I being a BF fan-boy went out and bought a 560 TI OC stuck it in place of my 8600 GTS. An INSTANT improvement (obviously).
I go on Youtube and I see all the 560 TI ULTRA BF3 movies 70+ fps. I however am pushing medium graphics level @ 1680 x 1050 and getting anywhere between 40-70 fps.
I just want to know if I am missing something other than the obvious YOUR MOBO AND PROCESS ARE OLD.
Yes I have the latest drivers for my graphics card. I really should check to see if there is a new BIOS for the mobo.
I am running FIREFOX for the BF3 launching tool. Anyone have better results with Chrome or Explorer?
Other than that, I am stumped. Thanks for reading!
