you're playing 720p on a 28 inch monitor and game is struggling? That definitely shouldn't be the case. Try some other games as well and see if the problem persists.

I doubt that this is the problem but I'll mention it anyway. If you join a BC2 server late in the game (or even mid-game sometimes) it will stutter and the framerate will be abyssmal until the destruction and terrain deformation has fully loaded...

Again, run the tests I showed you.

Also, the 6850 is NOT a medium card. It eats Crysis for breakfast.

it is a medium end card due to the fact that it is the lowest end card you can get from AMD in the 6xxx series.

[QUOTE="hows3r"]

Ok so I never have had a ATI card and I thought id try one out for a while.. I picked a up a HIS 6850 Ice q turbo... I dont know if it's a driver issue or what but I see other Non overclocked 6850's on youtube and how they handle crysis and bc2 and mine doesnt compare. for examle.. Im playing Bc2 right now with everything on High AA is on 1x and Afilter is on 1 and a rez of 1280/800.. Not to mention I have a 28inch monitor. and it's like choppy almost...and I have had so much trouble with the drivers.. Why the heck did I go to ATI, I called them and they said it might be a faulty card. I mean I should be able to run these games on High.. no?. I think im going to return the card and get an Nvidia card.. a 460 or something worth $200... I mean come on my 260 was better then this... Im just angry... GRrrr!

Keep in mind it runs source/trackmania/flatout just fine...so who the hell knows...ugh

well a 6850 is like a medium end card. as for getting low FPS did you update the drivers to the latest build? What wattage is your power supply. it might not be sending enough power to your GPU. also as for the stuttering it could be your hard drive loading. when i play BC2 on my PC i constantly get 40 FPS usually more on a 4870 so there are times when the HDD is loading and i can tell why its lagging.

EDIT: also are you playing in DX11

Dxdiag says dx11 is installed but I dont know if it really is...Maybe I just expected alot more out of this then I thought.... Maybe Ill try wiping out the drivers and starting over.. Im running vista ultimate, which I know it can rundx11.. and my power supply is a 650watt ultra...I mean I got the drivers from the HIS site...

In BC2 there was a big fire fight and they droped a bomb and it got choppy.. That shouldnt happen
