when i play black ops got lag here and there wats my up?

my system:
os:windows 7
proc:c2d e6300 2.2ghz
ram:corsair 2gb gaming ram
gpu:sapphire hd4890 1gb
hdd:wd 320gb sata
mobo:asrock g31m-s
screen:BenQ 19inch widescreen(1366x768)

coudl it be my gpu,ram or proc?

your processor is the culprit. get a quad core and it should run fine.

proc:c2d e6300 2.2ghz. I had a Pentium D too, the lag was unbearable.

COD needs quad core?! o.O

LMAO

Yes, surprisingly. I don't know why.

My previous laptop with core 2 duo can run Cod4, Cod5, MW2 perfectly. But when I tried to run Black Ops, it lags like hell. I'm getting 20FPS in NukeTown map, even on the lowest resolution and lowest settings. Even after applying the Steam update, yes, mine is legit.

Most of the games these days need quad core processors, I seriously don't know why.

wow pentium d...i thought i had it bad...good thing c2q is also lga775 socket..so need need change mobo

BO works fine on i3.

Perhaps the game hates processors with outdated architecture =/

Then I call that unoptimized, I don't believe that a game like COD using a prehistoric engine needs a quad core to run.

could be my ram..its very smooth..but when comes to a big fire fight it has some jams..i checked my proc n ram usage ..proc was 84% while ram was 97%....i try add somemore gbs of ram n see if it fixes the prob..cause come on a fps like cod cnt need up such a high end proc..its nt like its an rts or rpg...like total war,sins of a solar empire,gta etc

Maybe not enough RAM but this one more towards processor issue. lol seriously though I think you can start a budget for a new Gaming rig

if i do im keeping the gpu n screen ..probably changing , proc,mobo and ram at most....maybe getting a c2q,getting a another 2gb corsair ram,and a mobo(not sure wat model,brand to get yet)

Did you upgrade to the latest version?

It fixed a lot of my problems.

You mean drivers? or hardware?

game patch?hardware,software drivers?

its a patch, left click on black ops and click verify integrity cache..and it should download the latest patch.

I mean, is it the latest version of the game?

If its not, please buy it on Steam.

The early version of the game had a lot of problems.
