If he has a quad core and he only gets 20 fps then he has a seriously fubard pc. My pc is 12 months old, quad intel with ati 4800 series gfx and I still get 200+ fps with vsync off, but then again I keep my PC clean and tidy don't install crap that bloats it and always use the windows update drivers not the latest from ati/nvidia. Seriously backup his data and re install. People are too quick to blame the software of the game before they realise that all the crap they install on their pc just kills the game. A gaming pc should be for gaming not home media centre, small business office and general porn downloads. Buy a laptop for that shizz.
