Bad Company 2 Issue

hey guys

 

ok first it started with a software problem explained in this link

 

http://www.gotgames.com.au/forums/so...r-issue-89148/

 

i had trouble getting drives for my new 5670 GFX Card

 

 

So i finally got some drivers, i dont even know if there the correct ones. and all my games seem extremely smooth with no issues what so ever

 

Except for Bad Company 2

 

with bad company 2, my old gfx card the 4670 ran fine. after upgrading to the 5670, and adding drivers

 

i get this weird 1 minute lag spike every time i first enter a game, then it goes away

 

its strange

 

My old card - HD 4670 - upgraded to a 5670 1GB

 

My PC Specs

2.6 Duel core E5300

Kingston 4GB DDR2 800Mhz ram

500GB Seagate Barracuda HDD

P45 Neo-F MSI motherboard

550W PSU

 

Attatched screenshot of GPU-Z and my 5670 Specifications - feels wrong. the texture and pixel fillrates should be higher

i also noticed on the main ATi website, theres drivers for every specific card but the 5600 series cards

 

and in alot of peoples GPU-Z screenshots, the card shows up as 5670 in the details of gpu-z accept mine

 

with over 10 pixel fillrate and over 100 texture fill rate, for example

i have a feeling my processor might be bottlenecking the card but im not sure

Check the manufacturers website for Bad Company 2 (EA is it?)

there will be some patches released, it will be these and not the GPU drivers.
