I recently bought a new system thats been running fine in most games I've been playing but in certain high demand games such as Battlefield 2 and Everquest 2 its really seeming to suffer and yet people I know with rigs that aren't as good are obtaining better performance. I heard from a copule that a specific piece of hardware within my comp could be causing the problem. Here's my specs and I was hoping if anybody could help me spot out what the problem may be?
