Replaced my 5870 with a 480. WTF LOAD TIMES?

Hasn't this already been attributed to PB and how it scans? If you disable PB it makes all the difference in the world. See Captnkill's post on the hitch problem.

That was in the COD4 thread I had started. You're thinking of another problem and another thread.

Oh ya thats right but we did discuss that it is most likely the issue with BFBC2 but there is no console to make changes to rectify the problem.

The HD5870 was just alot smoother than the GTX 480 in BF BC2 even with 275.15.

Well, the ultimate proof is easy, When I loaded a new map with the 5870, the countdown timer would be at 21 seconds or so.. Same exact rig with the 480 and 275.15 loaded, my countdown timer is at 10-11 seconds by the time I'm in.

mailman is talking about something else, his imaginary "smoothness", not load times

I don't see how the game could run any smoother for me to be honest. I even turned off aa completely and saw no difference.

The sarcasm monster doesn't approve of either of you.

It's 68 degree's outside.. approaching 77 degree's in my office after gaming for a few hours.

My Master bedroom (2 doors down) has it's own thermostat.. it says 70.
