battlefield 2 lagg

[Korbin91]

this is my rig also known as ... my specs for my computer

Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+, MMX, 3DNow (2 CPUs), ~2.2GHz
Memory: 1024MB RAM
Hard Drive: 164 GB
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 6800 128mb
Monitor: Plug and Play Monitor
Sound Card: Realtek AC97 Audio

shouldnt these specs be able to push at least medium on battlefield 2? I'm on low settings... no more then that... and i cant figure out why. I know other people that have Geforce 6600 cards and are playing at medium settings.... So if you can help me out that would be awsome

How's your net connection? Lagging on anything else?

Your RAM is a little low. (Battlefield has always has always been a RAM hog.) Aside from that I don't know what would be causing your problems. Maybe onboard sound, but you'd think that would be offset by the dual core processor.

What resolution? Some more RAM will do good, I play alot of BF2 (Master Sargeant) and 2142 (Brigadier General). More RAM is always good for BF2, I have a 7800 GS OC and I run with medium setting 1280x960 with lighting settings on low (on medium that really bogs me down) and only 2xAA (prob can do 4, but I want smoother FPS, ladder games...) 1.5 gigs of ram.

oooooooooh ok.... i always thought i had low memory, not only with my video card but in RAM too, well i am going to ubdate my computer sooner or later, i just wanted what i had to run at what it should be, and by what your saying, it is running at what it should be.

More RAM is really going to help
