Low fps in Bioshock?

[metalmackey]

To be fair, there used to be the same problem with SLI and XP, and that got fixed.

Ouch thats bad, single 320mb GTS in XP, and i get about 70 average maxed out 1280x1024, even goes into the hundreds, lowest ive seen is about 58fps, so id say SLi in Vista needs fixing.

Yeah SLI doesn't seem to be working too great under Vista64 in a lot of games...

SLI works great with BioShock in windows XP tho.

Sure does, I get 40fps + with a pair of 7900GT's

Yet another reason to avoid vista

Something's not right there, 8800u-SLI should murder BS most of the time at that res. Not using 16xAA or something are you?

That vsync bug is dead annoying though. I haven't touched the game in a couple of weeks.

Its just poor SLI drivers. It will be sorted out but if you look at XP track record it may take a while.

GRAW is smooth in SLI, just flickers

i get about 68+fps on crossfire at 1650x1050, in dx10.. which is good for 2 mid range cards..

Im getting anwhere between 30-60 FPS throughout the game; it fluctuates quite a bit. This is at 1280x1024.
I expected my system to run higher frame rates than that but judging by this thread, Vista x64 is my main problem?

AMD6000+ @ 3.12Ghz
XFX Geforce 8800GTS 320MB
4GB DDR2 Tracer Ram
Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 Mobo
Vista x64

playing in dx10 or dx9?

 

[dr. sarf]

Thats DX10 mate.

 

[Richdog]

Thats DX10 mate.

Vista x64 + DX10, two technologies currently useless to gamers in terms of the performance hit you take.

 

[dr. sarf]

I get between 40-80 without DX10.
