I am trying to play GTA San Andreas on my computer with these specs.
CPU: Amd Athlon x64 3500+ @ 2.2 Ghz
3Gb DDR pc 3200
Radeon hd 4890
I recently upgraded GPU from Nvidia Geforce 9800 GTX+ OC
with the nvidia i could play the game at max res %100 no problems what so ever
even when flying through clouds i would have a GREAT FPS 60+ FPS (somewhere around there)
when i upgraded to the HD 4890 i noticed my overall FPS has dropped and when i fly through a cloud i drop as low as 15FPS sometimes lower
my avg FPS is about 30ish but ranges from low 20's to mid 40's depending on whats going on around me.
i even underclocked my GPU and overclocked my CPU to compensate for the bottle neck and same problem.
the odd thing is games that the 9800 couldnt handle well like MW2 and Crysis now run GREAT with FPS ranges from 40-100+
can someone PLEASE help me figure out what is going on.
