i have just upgraded my monitor to a hp w2007 1680x1050 ,cod2 used to run fine on my old 1440x900 monitor maxed out now, its like a frame show unless i disable aa, and shadows and some more settings.is it my drivers im using 160.02 on a 8800gts 320mb.
 
it could be the fact that your card doesnt have enough ram? dunno for sure though. higher resolutions need more vram.

I can't imagine Cod2 using all the ram at just 1680x1050. A lot of people say the game was optimized poorly but I ran it fine on everything medium and 2xaa 4xaf on a x800 gto. Also at 1680x1050. And the 8800gts is more than 3x faster than the x800gto. Bad comparison I know but i can't imagine your using all 320mb. Perhaps the low clock on your x2 is holding your card back just a smidgen.

it has more than enough vram, the problem is a bottleneck with the processor, OC a tiny bit and see how well COD improves... if it starts to improve alot, do some hardcore OC'ing and get the cpu at 3.0 if you can, or buy a new cpu.

price cuts are coming so you should get a good deal.
 
I disagree. Even my x2 3800 s939 was pulling >40fps at that res. It was stock speed.
Clean your system drivers and reinstall. Do a clean wipe of your system if that doesn't work. Something is messed up.
