Question:
HDD for BF2
Hi,
I have a Pavillon DV5040us notebook and I experience some lag during some BF2 maps (city maps are fine). I though that this could be either due to my slow HDD (4200 rpm Toshiba), my poor video card (Radeon Xpress 200M IGP 128mb dedicated) or the ram (2GB of PC2700 ram). I would like to upgrade the hard drive but I want to make sure it will make a difference... Do you think it will? Thank you
Here are my laptop specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...18481&lang=en#
Microprocessor 2.2 GHz AMD Turion™ 64 Mobile Processor ML-40 with PowerNow!™ Technology
Microprocessor Cache 1MB L2 Cache
Memory 2048MB 333MHz DDR System Memory (2 Dimm)
Video Graphics ATI RADEON® XPRESS 200M IGP
Video Memory 128MB DDR (dedicated)
Hard Drive 100GB (4200RPM) Hard Drive

it will only make a good difference in loading times if you go with a faster rpm drive

Re: HDD for BF2
The hard drive speed is only going to make a difference in loading times for the game.
It's not causing the lag.
IMO the video card is the problem. But you can't upgrade it.

For sure is the video Card, I'm surprise you can play it at all.
