I just found out that my PC does not support dual channel RAM. The kind I upgraded my computer with is dual channel...BTW what is dual channel?
Is it not supposed to work properly? Or doesn't give out max performance?

I noticed that the monitor you are using is a 1680x1050 - are you running the game at this resolution or smaller - thats alot of screen for that graphics card - try 1280x1024 and see if things improve

It basically sends and receives twice as much data as single channel -

(Single Channel) - a normal road you go up one way and down the other.
(Dual Channel) - a dual carriageway - 2 roads up and 2 roads down
