Just replaced my Phenom 9550 with a phenom ii 955 BE, OC'd to 3.8 Ghz aaaaaaaaanddddd...... same fps as i was getting with the 9550, in the 20 fps range with settings up moderately high, 1680x1050 AMD Phenom II x4 955 BE, OC'd to 3.8 Ghz Asus M4n82 Deluxe mobo 6GB DDR2 800 OC'd to 1066 stable Asus GTX460 OC'd to 840/1680 core/shader 2100 mem 1050mV also stable 750watt psu Win7prox64 Samsung 7200 RPM main drive Anyone know what gives?

Then I must be a moron >.< After reading through ~50 pages of the forum I still can't get over 20-25 fps anywhere (with the exception of an empty mission in the desert where I get right up to the limiter). I've tried lowering all the settings one by one, and it never yielded any significant change, even when drastically reducing the resolution. I hate to be that idiot, but I'm at wits end here. My rig is as follows: AMD Phenom x4 9550 OC'd to 2.8Ghz, tested stable Asus M4n82 Deluxe mobo 6GB DDR2 800 OC'd to 1066 stable Asus GTX460 OC'd to 840/1680 core/shader 2100 mem 1050mV also stable 750watt psu Win7prox64 Samsung 7200 RPM main drive Running at 1680x1050, can run BFBC2 at ~60 fps at all high settings w/ same res Worst part is my buddy who has a stock clocked intel q6600, 9800gt sli, 4gb mem, and the same main drive gets better frames than me >.< edit: figuring it's the cpu, but that q6600 is a 2.4. It does have a bigger cache though :/
