Hmm was expecting better, i noticed most of you use Intel cpu's is this where my problem is ? or a bios setting ? or something not supported fully.
maybe its the 512mb ram looks like the 1gb on the x2 has its advantages.
any help would be apprechiated just seems quite a bit off the mark
mobo is asus M3A79-T deluxe.
Graphics memory size means nothing, its all about the speed. There are lots of crappy 1gb cards out there such as the dredded 9600GT etc that basically get owned by lesser 512 cards.
I didnt say lesser cards i said lesser memory size cards.. ok then e.g: 512mb 8800 Ultra/GTX etc
You said "lesser 512" cards... that means slower cards with 512mb memory. More memory can be helpful in some situations, such as with high AA/High resolution.
For example:
In FarCry 2 @ 1920x1200 the 4850 1024mb is 22% faster than the 512mb version of the same card.
What I meant was memory size is not AS important. Any by the looks of it so far the FC2 benchmark test (especially the one above) is really scewed up with messy results, not a proper card comparison if you ask me.
