WTF Games run like shit just got a new computer - GoFuckYourself.com

VAIRES · 12-28-2005, 02:22 PM

Pentium D 820 2 x 1MB L2 Cache, 2 x 512MB DDR2 Dual Channel, 250GB SATA, ATI Radeon x800 Pro

Games are running like shit, I ran 3dMark05 and my score like 4500 something... shitty FPS... under 30FPS - games run like crap.

WTF is wrong? Drivers are newest from ATI's site.

You got ripped off.

Seems like a fast computer.

Damian_Maxcash · 12-28-2005, 02:25 PM

Not sure - try checking the DirectX version - thats given me grief in the past.

websiex · 12-28-2005, 02:25 PM

VAIRES · 12-28-2005, 02:34 PM

FEAR and BF2 so far

Jarmusch · 12-28-2005, 03:17 PM

Try looking for hotfixes for those games.

I'm not sure about your graphic card. But two weeks ago I paid about $180 for mine and it's less than average.
Besides, games run much better on Athlon.

Get a stronger graphics card

dont play games

VAIRES · 12-28-2005, 06:05 PM

You guys are joking right? This is an ATI Radeon x800 Pro - it cost $300, its not the video card.

I have another system running an x700 Pro and it runs better than this

An ATI x800 = ~$200-250

Turn down the graphics settings, you've probably got them set far too high for what your pc can handle. A 3dmark score of 4500 is quite low for todays specs, you need to be running your games at about 800x600x32 - Medium/Possibly High

Your ram could also be a bottleneck, BF2 requires 2gb+ of ram to run in high/ultra mode, and FEAR just rapes any computer.
