February 8, 200422 yr Hey guys,Since i got my computer (about 2 weeks ago) i have had a doubt in wether its running well or not.Specifically regarding the graphics.Now my specs are the following;AMD Athlon 2800+Corsair 512MB DDR PC3200 @400mhzSapphire Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB (6x FSAA and 8x AF)ABIT NF-7 Nforce 2 ultra motherboardSound Blaster Audigy ESWestern Digital 80gb 8MB BufferThermal Right SLK with YS-Tech fan @5400rpmEnermax Silent PS 350WEnermax CaseThe thing is that....running with either 6xFSAA or 4xFSAA and 8xAF i get framerates around 14-30.I was wondering if you guys think thats right??it looks a bit wierd to me....could it be the "lack" of ram?Dario
February 8, 200422 yr Depending on your res, you may be able to turn down the FSAA and note a massive increase in FPS. I run at 1600x1200 and can quite easily get away with 4x FSAA.The Athlon 2800+ runs at a FSB of 333Mhz, unless they have brought out a special edition model, which they probably have. Therefore, your RAM isn't working to its full potential on this.FSB shouldn't make a whole heap of difference, but it's something to think about.Keep playing with the settings, especially autogen, that's a real frame-eater.
February 8, 200422 yr well im running at 1152x and its true the difference between 4xfsaa and 6xfsaa isnt that big...true dat, im going to keep playing around with settings...thanks Dario
