| Is you graphic card created by nVidia or Ati (AMD-Ati)?
Some games are better optimalized for nVidia (Doom 3, Crisis...), some for Ati (Half-Life 2).
While I was playing Crisis, I encountered problems with Anti-Aliasing - when it was ON, the framerate was pretty awful (1-2 all the time), but when I turned it off, the gameplay was completely smooth (40+). (I have Ati).
I'll have Gears of War in several days, I wonder whether there will be the same problem or not.

Call of Duty 4 requires DirectX 9.0c, which I already had on my pc, but the game used to freeze from time to time UNTIL I installed DirectX bundled with the game.
