ping is not affected by your video card.  ping is simply a number representing the time it takes for your computer to send a packet to a server and for that server to respond. 

there are two types of lag.  video card lag, which is caused by playing a game at too high of graphics settings, causing lag on your end, and internet lag, which is just when you're not receiving information from the server fast enough.

your video card obviously isnt the problem, so you have the second of the two types.  try sorting the servers by ping from now on and go with the lowest number that comes up.

Most of the time when people complain about lag in-game, they are referring to system-lag, not network lag. If they are the only one lagging and their ping is 20, they can't be having straight-forward network issues.

They could, of course, be saying they have lag as an excuse for being crap

There are some EA TH (thailand) EASG (singapore) if you want to try your luck. your connection might be able to handle the network lag. Try looking for EA AU or EAAU or something, i'm surprised they don't have any servers...

oh and i couldnt help thinking of this BladeRunner
