I have a Windows Vista home premium computer with an NIVIDA 8500GT graphics card with 256MB, an Intel Core 2 Quad Processor Q6600 each core operates at 2.4 GHz, 2 x 4 MB L2 cache, 1066 MHz FSB. I have a 500 GB SATA II hard drive. Dual channel 2048 MB DDR2 memory, Memory Card Reader 15-in-1. I have a 32-bit operating system and 2030 MB of rams. My problem is, however, that I have constant game lag while playing all next gen gaming titles (offline). Games such as Bioshock, Jericho, Call of Duty 4, ect. I am not able to play these games on the highest graphic settings without lag, (sometimes not even fair graphic settings). I don't understand why.
 
blame that 8500gt... it stinks.. and its being bottlenecked by your q6600 (8500gt is on par with a 7300gt) so get atleast a 7900gs or something... i highly recommend the 8800gts 320mb...
 
ya.. i guess they like ripping of people who don't know better.... Dude.. we should start a business like this ripping of noobs.... then we have enough cash for a new System, woot!!!
 
So, why is the 8500GT bad? I tryed looking for reviews but didn't find anything.

Are you saying the card is **** in general or that its not working well with his other specs.

Why can't a Honda Civic beat a dragster on a drag strip? People love the Honda Civic, great features, good MPG, spacious, seats many. It all boils down to performace. Just like processors, a bad video card will not do well at intensive games. Would you use a Pentium 1 or a Core 2 Quad?
