Some kind of Vsync problem?

If you don't want to mess with the computer why not just use your 8800Ultra or 9800GTX and/or get a GTX260/280 and be done with it :confused:

I had the G80's and G92's some time back. Thought a 3870 would be ok for casual gaming but games never seemed to run as well as they sould, and thats why I got the 4870.

Now that got the 4870, not sure the problem was the 3870, and so I got the e8500.

Not sure what the difference would be getting gtx 280/260 over the 4870? Single card either way, and am not even looking to OC anything. Just want a single card at stock working nicely in the games I play
 
just wondering do ut3 and et.qw use opengl ?
opengl does run better on nvidia cards....or atleast has done in the past.
when i had a 9800pro and a 4200ti/6800gt even though the game i used to play was cpu bound the nvidia's always gave much more fps. i doubt there would be as much difference now but it could be the case.
 
Well, ok, some progress. There is one line in UT3's ini which is OneFrameThreadLag=False. Once that is set to true, I get no drops in fps.

ET:QW is running a bit better and isn't really dropping lower than mid 40's, but am sure it should still be higher than that at high, 1680x1050, with 4xAA...
