I'm running an 8800GT on a 2.4 QUAD CORE, 4G RAM, and Vista 32 (plenty of fans and a good power supply) and my shizzle has been cooking. Let's hope this helps!
"Half-resolution" is the only thing that seems to help. It makes the game look like #(%&%#, but I guess until I figure out what's wrong... that'll have to do.
This might be a moot point but if you are using a Nvidia card, try this.
Disable Physx under Nvidia Control Panel (NCP)
Force vsync "on" under NCP
Under "Manage 3D settings" click "Global Settings" and set "Power management mode" to "Adaptive"
Also get Rivatuner "www.guru3d.com" and force the fan to 100%.
