my PC:
1.7 Ghz 512 Ram Sapphire ATI Radeon 9600 pro 256 mb 128 bit graphic card. I need help really badly. I lag When i play with more than 32 players in Battlefield 1942 or joint operation typhoon, even if i put everything on low in video settings with shadow effect off. I had a geforce fx5200 128 mb 128 bit and it didnt have any lag when i playy with 64 players in bf 1942. Would be really nice if your could help me out Thankx |

Someone told me its because my card is 256 mb, that means my 512 of ram couldnt handle it. He told me to get more ram, like 1 gig of ram. Could your tell me is this what it cost me to lag in BF1942 when play with 32+ players? If so, do you need 2x512 ram to upgrade to 1 gig of ddr ram or you can too with 2x256 ram and 1x526 ram?

I have never heard that before! I really don't think thats right. There is something in the graphics options if you turn off makes a difference also. Try turning the draw distance down a little also

its still the same if i put shadows off and put everything on lowest. i even tried reformat my pc and get the newest driver, it didn't help at all. i play fine in bf1942 and joint operatino typpon with no more than 32 players with everything on highest and shadows on. It will start to lag when i join a game that has more than 32 players ,it gets really worst with more and more players. :bucky!:
oh btw, its the same if i play online or offonline, more than 32 players or npc = Laggy. |

For a game like BF42, it seems to me the CPU is a weak link. However, I think adding RAM would help also. These games store huge textures.
It would be best if you got another 512MB stick, but even 2-256MB sticks of a compatible type to what you have would help you. An ATI 9600 SHOULD best your old Nvidia card. Dunno about the relationship between RAM and vidcard, but I do know that lots of games I play got much smoother after going from 512 to 1024MB of RAM. The games heavy on visuals really seem to need it. |
