Well I haven't touched this scince I tweaked it to get it nice and smooth 1280x1024 with 2XAA and soft shadows off.

After seeing more people say how good it is thought I'd give it a bash and seemed to be getting around 17FPS constant. So I wen't and looked at the settings all fine, turned vsync off made sure my secondary display was disabled but still the same. Then I turned some settings down but was still getting the same FPS in game. I reinstalled my graphics divers (81.98) with driver cleaner pro and tried again but nothing. I've now set everything to minimum (looks like Doom) but I'm still getting around 17 FPS. I've also made sure the FEAR profile is set to application controlled.


Other games seem fine and I'm completly stumped and I'd like to avoid a reinstall atm so any help would be very much apprieciated.
 
1) is it only fear?
2) is anything else in the background chewing cpu cycles?
3a) has someone replaced your 6800ultra with a 5200?
3b) what gc you got?
 
I spend hours with playing around with my system a few weeks ago because of the same problem..

I set it to 640x480 and i get roughly the same fps as 1920x1200

I still have no idea why my system runs faster in that game with 2xAA and 8xAF then with no AA and AF.. :confused:

Try setting yours to 2xAA and 8xAF..that the fastest settings i can find on my system..

Sorry knew I forgot something. This has been my rig before I got fear and no hardware has been changed.

As far as I'm aware there isn't anything else in the backround but I'll check after this round of BF2.
 
Well I've done a reinstall but to no avail. I didn't install the 1.02 patch and I really have no idea what's going on now. I also cleaned the registry but nothing.
