    I have BFBC2 and MOH

    BFBC2 barely runs on low and sometimes is unpalyable
    MOH runs absolutly amazing on all settings max, i dont understand because they use teh same game engine and MOH has more detailed maps and slightly better textures. can someone explain why i can run it so much better than BFBC2?

    Why double post 20 minutes apart?

    The explanation is quite simply that Bad Company 2 has a lot of physics/processor intensive stuff. The maps also tend to be VERY large, compared to other shooters like Modern Warfare 2.

    I hate to say it, but the R1 is a bit underpowered for Bad Company 2. My only recommendations are to try Gamebooster and try overclocking your M11x
