    New Monitor and FPS

    Hey I just got a new free HP monitor which is 19 inches widescreen(called HP w19b). The perfect resolution is 1440x900. I play with a 7800GTX 256MB no OC on everything high 4xaa. When I got this screen my frames drop alot during gunfights or flying low. Is there anyway I can boost my FPS without lowering my video settings? Also I did the widescreen fix when you go to the icon and put
    Code:
    +szx 1440 +szy 900
    .

    Very weird. Have you updated drivers? What happens with other screen resolutions? What happens when you turn AA off? What were your framerates before? Etc, etc...

      Well I want AA on because it looks like **** without it. My other monitor used to get like 70+ FPS which had a smaller resolution. Other screen resolutions look strechted and ugly but 1440x900 is perfect.

          Things to consider:
          Turn off Vertical Sync.
          The refresh rate of your LCD, the higher the better.
          Use digital DVI cable instead of analog VGA, better quality & faster.
          Use NVidia control panel (/w Coolbits) to force refresh rates.
          Go here and read the sections on BF2 & NVidia drivers www.tweakguides.com
