[New for 2010!] Which level of graphics settings do you play? - Page 5

[R-DEV]OkitaMakoto · 12-17-2009, 01:05 AM

used to have all high, but for some reason, lately, Ive been getting 15 FPS even on such non stressing maps like EJOD which I used to get 60+ FPS on with the same system setup...

Settings are now a mix of High and Medium.

any insight into possible reasons Im all ears... drivers are up to date, Im running game booster which shuts down unneeded processes, I've recently reformatted my PC, opened the case and did a good dusting...

Just deleted all shaders in my documents. My card is running at 45 deg core temp and 52 deg ambient temp. When I played ArmA earlier and then exited after 45 minutes or so the numbers were not much higher, maybe upper 50's. A far cry from the time the temps were reaching 79 Celsius. [put arctic cooling fan on card, an aging Radeon x1950 Pro 512Mb PCIe]

ATI control panel is open since I reformatted... would that possibly decrease performance by overriding things in game? Should I try shutting it off? Hmm... that might be it... not sure...

Used to have all maxed out, including AA. No problemos running the game smoothly.

Although had one really annoying shaderbug. When the screen was supposed to go black and white because of excessive bleeding it just went totally black. Only small amounts of red blood steins was visible on the side of the screen. Tried to change the value to 4x and 2x etc. it didn't help. Only way I was able to get rid of it was to put AA totally off.

So now I'm playing with everything maxed out except for anti-aliasing

Would be nice to be able to use it again :/

medium, but gonna upgrade soon as i get the cash.

Herbie · 12-17-2009, 05:50 AM

All max, and it looks sweet! And it's stable on 100 fps too, actually 150-200 if fpslock is off, but who cares? It's a nice way to save some GPU-watts and myself from that annoying fan noise

Upgraded this May, overclocked AM3-system with 4890 gpu.
