It all depends on objects that card is rendering at the moment.

But having only 13 fps with 260 thats definately something strange going on

My specs:
(3 years old machine, GTX280 2 years)
Q6600
4GB RAM
Win vista 64 bit Ultimate
Looking forward for the full machine upgrade at the end of the year.

Thank you very much that is exactly the info i needed. That tells me my 8800GT was doing a good job from the get go. I assumed it was way to slow when i guess it wasnt. I also assumed that upgrading to a gtx260 would get me mid 40's. Still dont explain why the gtx260 is so bad though but at least i now know that trying to get 40-50fps on the bridge at the beginning of that mission is impossible (looking straight ahead anyway) no matter what your pc specs are.
