        You need 2 GB of RAM to play with all of the bells and whistles on

        for now at least..maybe the patch will help

              But people exaggerate their FPS...it's like their e-penis

              Don't believe everything you read.

                The key word you used...was MOSTLY. You cannot get by with 1 GB with EVERYTHING on highest.

                I am running 2 GB of RAM @ 333 Mhz and I can turn EVERYTHING on highest without a hiccup now. I could not do that with 1 GB of RAM @ 400 Mhz.

                  I can actually, i sacrifice a couple of things to medium and get no lag. On a 16 player server i easily hit high, in fact the only reason i turned em to medium is because there is not enough noticable difference, you should search BF2 tweak guide in the client support section, that'll tell you what to put on high and medium. I can run high 32 players if i wanted, there's no noticable difference between high and medium for some settings except i get higher fps with some of them on medium.

                  EDIT: here's th link to the page that tells you the vid settings for BF2:


                  It's a really great guide, you can get like at least 10 more fps by doing this.

                    Sounds to me it's a server problem, and not a clientside problem. What's your ping when playing?

                        I don't understand this reply...this is exactly what I just posted.

                        You have to turn a couple of things down to medium when you only have 1 GB of RAM.

                          no its not the 7800... its perfect i use it. Your problem is ram most likely and your cpu isnt to great either.
