Got curious and ran BC2 w/ Rivatuner monitoring CPU usage on the left and Precision monitoring GPU usage on the right. Here's a screenie...



CPU maxed, GPU not so much. My thoughts are that the GPU simply isn't being fed by the dual core. Just thought it was interesting to see a game finally devour a dual. Though I guess we can blame/thank the consoles for this.

For comparison's sake, here's how a quad changes the picture. Notice the temp and usage increase on the GPU...

Can you put me into that first page! badcraz for the win. I really had a great time playing with you guys the other night. To this point I have yet to be able to get the BFBC2 friends list to accept even one friend. I'm on alot and I'm working nights these days so on my days off Im on all night. Hit me up!

Last time I checked it still has to be done out of game in the main menu screen. Both players must be there. Both of you should send requests @ the same time IIRC. Further, I believe only the top XX amount are connectable in game.

It would be so much easier if they just used steamworks.

Craz you need to get voice chatter installed. 

VoiceChatter is the new voice comm of choice:

Voice Chatter is installed and running, played with Magistrate and Big10 last night.... where was you?

So last night while gaming with wiggle I made a startling discovery.

Bad guys go down faster if I don't hold the trigger down.

In light of my ridiculous, yet awesome to me revelation, I wanted to put this handy link down here...just in case any of you still use bloom. Its a nice compilation of tweaks for BC2 and Nvidia cards. Those less fortunate AMD users should still find valuable infos.

Here's what my stuff looks like:



The only other important thing I can thing of that's not in here's SoundSystemSize=2(Home Cinema) in GameSettings.ini. Unless you like the boom boom of war tapes, lol.

Fun little BC2 montage now that BF3's gone for a couple weeks.
