BF3 Settings

[Kribby2006]

Hi All,

Been trying an failing to get BF3 running smoothly for a long time now. Running as per my spec with the settings on medium for pretty much all settings.

50% of the time its ok but I seem to get a lot of stuttering when moving around. Its particularly bad when parachuting and moving the mouse around, it stutters like hell, other time it can be ok. I've tried turning off HT as has been mentioned but didn't really help to much.

Other stuff I have seen is with regard to a manually created config file and it was this I was curious about, anyone got any suggestions on what I should try settings wise? I see I already have a user.cfg with the BF3 directory with the following in:

WorldRender.SpotLightShadowmapResolution 256
RenderDevice.TrippleBufferingEnable 0
RenderDevice.ForceRenderAheadLimit 1

Any ideas peeps?

For the first post:

All of your points I have been tried, I have disabled HT and my i7 is @ 3.8GHz. Just to add I do get a good solid frame rate it just looks like choppy at times, thanks for your answer

Rusty - I play at 1920 x 1200 (although I turned it down to 1080 to try and help) but I will try Precision X see what I get.

I should also say that I recenly had a Windforce 670 (which i sent back) that could max the game out but I had the same issue with that too :S

I also had stuttering issues which the user.cfg helped to cure. Now on a windforce 670 as well.

Cheers Setter, could you tell me what I should put in the user.cfg file?

OK VRAM usage is just under 1GB, averaging 980MB, looking at GPU, its around 80-90% at these settings.

Imm convinced its down to setting thats why I wanted to know about this config file etc

The user.cfg i used contained the following.

Renderdevice.forcerenderaheadlimit 1
renderdevice.triplebufferingenable 0

Which i see youve already set though.

Oh ok thanks anyway. Its really annoying your running towards a tank to jump in for example, and theres big jumps as it were, not smooth at all
