DOD:Source framerates....

Buzza · 7 Aug 2006 at 22:12

Could anyone with a similar spec machine to me, tell me roughly what DOD:Source runs like on there PC?. Im not sure mine is running as fast as it should.

I run it at 1280x1024 with x4 FSAA, x8 AF, max details. Currently it seems to run at about 35-45 fps. Some areas like the american end of argentan, can run as low as 20-30fps, which seems pretty bad.

spec in sig.

cheers

Well I'm running Opty [email protected] 1gb ram and 7800gt with everything maxed and I get between ~30-90fps.

i do get higher than 45, but the fps tends to be around 35-45 for the most of the time.

it is a bit taxing DOD:source, a lot more than CS:S for example.

Ok i tried it and it made little or no difference.

.....tell you what did though....

*hangs head in shame*

.... i had a 1gig stick of pc2700 ram in with 2xhalf gig sticks of 3200 ram and my system was running at 333mhz instead of 400mhz, im now also running dual channel. I must have put it there ages ago and forgotten it was slower ram :/
