Game pauses or hiccups! Video Memory or System Memory! Professional Help!

[DanielMsi]

in games like battlefield 2 with texture on HIGH, the game pauses alot. ill get good frames but as you move around the game will jump and "lagg". Is this because my 6600gt only has 128mb ram or is it my 1.5gigs. Should i upgrade to 2gigs or should i just get my 6600gt render medium textures! Thanks for your Help!

medium textures, 1.5gb is a decent amout of ram to start with, how many FPS are you getting ? and what RESOLUTION have you got it set at ?

[DanielMsi]

1024x768. it will give me about 50frames on high textures but it will skip alot, or jump or lagg!

pepole tell me 1 gig is not good for bf2 at high so i think upgradeing is due.

yer, but will 128mb video ram cause games to jump or should it just drop performance instead of games pausing and jumps!

If it was graphical lag then you would have constant lag. Update ALL of your drivers if you haven't already. Battlefield 2 almost always has problems with outdated sound drivers.

Maybe you just have cpu lag or it's your internet connection. My 6600gt never hiccups--i use high detail for all games.

I had hiccups with 1GB of ram, but it was fine with 1.5GB. My current system has 2GB and its silkey smooth.

Ya, turn the textures down a little...that is probably it...since you only have 128mb of ram on your vid card, it may not be enough...which makes the card have to load the textures from the main memory...and that would make it pause a bit...
