Hi,
Me and my friend nearly have identical pcs and we use both the same gfx drivers.
I have AMD 3200+, 2Gig Ram, Radeon x1800xt. On the source engine i have about 80fps most of the time but when in a firefight it drops to about 30 and thats even using a fps config to try to stop this.
My friend has;
AMD 3800, 1Gig Ram, Radeon x1800xt. On the source engine he has about 80-90 fps and when he gets in a firefight he doesnt have hardly any fps drop, if it does its to about 60-70. He also runs on full spec.
The only conclusion really is my CPU is holding me back.
A mate is selling hes AMD 3800+ for £20 hes had it for about 1 month and works fine. You think its worth getting the 3800+ as this could be the problem?
Tnx Bez
