I got it to work. but the problem is the fps drop i get in games, it shoots down on intense area's and its ****ing me off now 300 quid for this, when the huts explode at the start of cod 5 drops to 50s is that normal? i have tried the offical 9.3 driver and now i have tried my driver cd all same results.

OC that CPU.

What level of AA are you using & COD5 does hammer the gfx card more than COD4 because they have over done the post processing.

DOF- Depth Of field & the blurring in COD5 is over the top.

For XP users, you can now find it here:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaWbeta\players\profiles\player name

For you Vista users:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaWb eta\players\profiles\playername

fine this following line and change the 1 to 0, save and your done.

seta r_dof_enable "0"

The seta r_dof_enable "0" may work from the console, im not sure.

My score was like 17000 odd is that too low for my card?

I think I got about that when I had an X2.

dmxdex2020 · 31 Mar 2009 at 15:45

Says my psu only gets 70% load surely that is not good.

{SAS}TB · 31 Mar 2009 at 15:53

Sorry posts came in too quick

Well in that case try dropping the DOF as I say I get well over 100 FPS @ 1920x1200 with 8xAA and 8xAF

Try the DOF first then worry about the PSU blowing up.

Yeah, I just had a spin on it and my 260 renders 90fps average. I forget what I got with my X2 but it was probably about 140+.

Something is wrong with my system it seems.

dmxdex2020 · 31 Mar 2009 at 17:28

I think my psu is not powerfull enough, its 70% load and the dual 12 volts are doing 38A my card minimum is 40 and 80% load so i think i will have to change my psu if that doesnt do the trick get a new card.
