New Graphics card but problems online

[Yamaha285]

K so i installed my GEforce GTX 560 to my pc to help my quality and it did but takes alot of texture memory to load just 5 people. I was running a ATI 4650 with the same stuff i have now and i could run 35 + with my card on balanced and still have a solid frame rate but not on this card no matter what i do it runs bad. It feels like frame buffer objects on but im sure they are not. When i joined 02 last night my offset was 20000 and climbing which ive never had happen to. To help you guys trouble shout me My CPU is a E5400, 4 Gs of ram, power supply is 700. I think its my CPU and was wondering if i just max my ram to 16 would that help me any our would i be wasting my time?

Thanks

More RAM won't help. If you aren't running the drivers from NVidia's site try that. The drivers that ship with the card are usually somewhat outdated.

Yeah i downloaded from the site i figured it was outdated and its the most resent one released. Any other suggestions, i dont want to waste money on something not needed.
Thanks again

Try the driver cleaner from YZ's driver topic.

Yeah every things gone it gets worse the more people i have in. ive lowered my texture resolution to 32x32 and i manged 20 people. something just dont seem right you think i should re install the drivers again maybe something went wrong and didnt catch it?

Your CPU Can't handle that GPU and is bottlnecking the GPU

How much texture memory is it using?

[Yamaha285]

certian tracks with like 3 people 300 to 500 and 02 racing 1000+ 1400 has been the highest.

Ive read that might happen to this CPU and was recommended the i5 2400 if i didnt want to spend tons.

So ive decided on the processor i want and since my mother board dont have the LGA 1155 socket type ill need a board to. Found this solid bundle with a great i5 deal http://www.outletpc.com/e1002bm-core-i5 ... y-kit.html

I don't know how much memory your graphics card has, but if you're using 1400 MB on a 1 GB board you'll get awful performance. Try going down a step on the model texture detail setting and restarting the game.

Yeah and that's what i'm getting haha. Its only 1024 MB DDR5. Thanks for the help josh i'm pretty set on that combo pack to get my PC fully updated and out of that limited selection.
