Hi there, I've recently upgraded to a Radeon 7950 card which was factory OC'd to 925 MHz. I expected it to be able to smoothly run all my games.
I get a fantastic FPS on most games at max settings, but for some reason when I'm playing BOII, I get a pretty low FPS (Something like 20-40 and it dips and jumps a lot).
I'm running on 8GB of RAM at 1333 so I can't imagine that would be the problem, but I'm running an AMD FX 4100. My motherboard model is GA-M68MT-S2 (rev. 3.1).
My drivers only updated yesterday for the GPU and it's definitely running on the correct GPU (http://i.imgur.com/gPYJ59T.png) and not the one integrated one.
Is the 7950 not as good as I'd hoped or is it my processor? (Or perhaps another component in my PC)?
If you want any printouts out of HWMonitor or anything just ask.
Thanks!
(Also, on a probably unrelated issue; I take insanely long times to load into games, to the point where I can't play one in the chamber because by the time I connect someone's killed me!
- I've got a fibre optic connection, but I was putting this down to my geographical location (South Wales) perhaps not being optimum for the game's servers?)
Edit: As a heads up, I've seen some people complaining about problems with FX processors on steam games but mine are nowhere near as bad as they describe (Freezing, rebooting, randomly exiting, etc)
