My game has been getting annoyingly laggy whenever I jump in a chopper or jet and fly around. It's so bad that it's almost impossible to play the game. I was thinking that heating may be an issue? Would the game lag up if my video card or other hardware component was getting hot? I don't ever get artifacts or system/game crashes, just lag. It's not a network issue because it doesn't happen when I am on foot or in land-based vehicles (and also my roommate plays on the same connection with no lag issues).
I used to be able to play everything on high, but I lowered all settings to medium and still i have issues, though not as severe.
I am open to advice. Here are my relevant specs:
- os: WinXP Pro SP2 (running processes are kept at a minimum, and I don't have virii/spyware)
- processor: AMD 64-bit running @ 2GHz
- memory: 4GB Corsair RAM running in dual channel
- video card: nVidia GeForce 7800GT
- hdd: Seagate SATA 3GB/s 320GB (yes, I've defragged many a time)
With those specs, I don't see any reason why I can't play on high.
Thx!
