i just upgraded my gfx from a 4850 to a 5870 and the stutter is still awful in BFBC2, i'm playing at all high settings @ 1920x1080 and i get around 40-60 fps on average which is kind of low considering my brother with his tri-core AMD (cant remember its name) and 5850 get pretty much a solid 60 at the same settings but his is silky smooth and no stutter at all.

Is his tri core clocked at 3.3ghz better than my E8500 @ 4ghz at running this game? or is it some bug that im experiencing?
 
Sounds like something is wrong, I've a Quad Core Phenom and 4870 and I can run it and get fps around 60 at those settings. Yours should be performing better! Vertical Sync on?
What operating system you on?
 
Afaik BC2 utilises quad core cpus. I see you have a dual core and you say your brother uses a tri core. That could be your answer.
 
Theres something wrong somewhere it shouldnt stutter. I'd attempt a re-install of the game and possibly sound and graphics drivers just to rule them out, then i'd set the res at native but leave everything else off, see how it performs and if its ok then start switching things to higher settings and see what happens

EDIT : Noticed its a dual core, I upgraded from a dual core to quad core and the difference in BC2 was huge, try knocking setting down
 
Hmmm depends if your talking about single or multiplayer.

Single player, will give you true performance... the multiplayer, I get lag on some servers where as i also dont get lag on others....

Lag can be caused by the server its self, network lag, Punk Buster streaming you name it...

My computer breezes this game on single player.

But BFBC2 loves cpu's..... more cpu power unlocks more gpu fps..
 
thanks for the replies guys, it stutters on both single and multiplayer. had a go of MoH and thats smooth and always maxed at 62fps so i'm guessing its all down to the cpu....will have to look at upgrading that now too, damn this is an expensive game to play :P
