I have an X800 XT Platinum, and I can't run all on high. I have 2GB of PQI DDR-4 PC-32000 RAM, and an AMD 64 3500+ Winchester 939. If I turn everything up to high, I get 20fps, and it studders constantly! Any suggestions?
Well, first off, download the new catalyst drivers 5.11 at ATi if you havn't done so already. Then, instead of enabling AA in BF2, go to the catalyst control center and enable it from there, same quality, but you get better fps.

Hmm, I'll try that. I am running 5.6 Drivers I believe. I'll let you know if I see any improvement!

WOw, those are old, those are back in June (the 5 in the drivers means 2005, and the .11 means the 11th month, November, so the 6th month is June). Those were the drivers that originaly came with my vid card that i bought in June. I had problems with my vid card back then (freeze at BF2, CTD etc.)
I can't get the AA, and AF to apply to BF2. I unchecked "Let the application decide" is there something else I need to do? Also, the 5.11 WDM crap or whatever wouldn't install. Any help will be appreciated!
Yes you are and it's called a memory divider. Example below:
CPU: 240 x 12 = 2880mhz
Mem: DDR333/6:5 divider = DDR400mhz
HTT: 240 x 4 = 960mhz
We've been through this enough. Until you get SLI your GPU is the bottleneck, or if you play at really low resolutions with no AA and AF.
you didn't read the story behind my post.
the other guys said HTT*multiplier is cpu speed.
I said it's FSB*multiplier is CPU speed
And about the memory divider, I don't want to use that, many many problems already reported with that, it doen't work perfectly because sometimes the timing mis match, wich will cause instability

Yeah, you uncheck let the application decide, and then you put the AA to 6xaa on the slider. Plus, it doesn't SAY in BF2 that you have AA or AF, you jsut do, the cataylst control center overrides the aa in the game, and makes it 6xaa.

What the heck do you mean? The memory on an A64 is always running on a divider. Thats how it's set up.

I tried the 5.11's, and while my 3dMark score did increase by almost 100 points, BF2 seemed to suffer from excess tearing, and flashy graphics.
Going back to 5.10 made it good again. The 5.12 drivers are coming out in a few weeks anyway, hopefully they will fix the tearing/flashing issues I experienced.
comparing fps, both seem the same for BF2...so go with the better of the two :)
yea i got 1 question...if I get a dual core 3800+ and a 7800GTX would be able to run bf2 and all the other games out right now on high?
second should i wait for the prices to drop for the 7800GTX 512 version and buy it or just get the 256 that I was planning on getting? is the 512 really worth all the extra money
thanks I really need help i'm in a bit of a toss up
Yes, to all of your questions. The 256mb gtx will play all the games on high, but you should wait for the prices to drop on the 512mb version, because it's even faster.
