not enough ram, and a 550ti would barely play BC2.

Yeah. I'd say RAM and perhaps CPU. But what resolution do you run at? I used to play BC2 on a GTS 250 (with a C2Q and 4GB RAM) on 1680x1050, and it was fine on medium (I think?).

My laptop plays bc2 on low 720p at 30-40fps. i5 2.4ghz, 4gb ram and 420m. your ram is low and cpu is only a dual core. you should be able to get more fps so I'm thinking it has to be the ram.

No, 550ti is better. Maybe it's a driver issue. Try downloading the latest NVIDIA drivers, and during the instal, make it do a clean instal.

At that resolution, you should be running BC2 fine...

It's not your GPU. You need more RAM and overclocking your cpu would help quite a bit. I found on my laptop if I turned the graphics to high it hardly made my fps drop, because my limiting factor is my cpu.

Weird how his friend has the same specs just a different GPU and runs it fine
