GTX 550ti BF2 PR Performance?
I recently upgraded to the EVGA GTX 550ti 1gb from my old EVGA 9800GTX+ 512mb. I noticed that my ingame performance in PR BF2 is not quite As good as it was with the 9800gtx+. My FPS will drop into the low 30s high 20s in certain surroundings which never occurred with the old card. It is playable but just not as smooth in general as the 9800gtx+. I have latest drivers, increased pagefile space, and even lowered some of the graphics settings. My question is, is this performance decrease normal for newer generation cards with PR and xp? Can anyone who has similar videocard share their ingame fps performance experience? Thanks for all replys.

Re: GTX 550ti BF2 PR Performance?
I have a similar system with the GTX550Ti (replaced a burned out ENG GTX275, which was 1GB also).
I actually find that performance is comparable on BF2 to my old card, however iirc nvidia's performance rating said as much. I will say that the cooling is better than my old card though. FPS is 40-50 on medium, 30-40 on high, I recommend using the nvidia tools to set your graphics like anti aliasing though, gets better results than using teh ingame system I find. |

DDR2 RAM? o_O Maybe that's bottleneck... or 250 GB HDD is too old and slow... :/
