Hey, I just bought an 8800GTS 512 and decided to benchmark it with FEAR.
I have it overclocked to 755 core and 1976 mem. To my surprise, on max settings, I only had an average FPS of 63 at 1440x900.
From what I've seen in benchmarks, that seems low to me. I had AA and AF all the way up, soft shadows on, and everything else set to max.
The rest of my system is:
- AMD Athlon 6000+ @ Stock speeds
- 2gb CORSAIR Valueselect DDR2 667
- Antec Trio 650w PSU
- GIGABYTE AM2 AMD 690G HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
- Windows XP SP3
Some benchmarks show average FPS of ~60 at slightly higher resolutions, which doesn't worry me (I did have FF running in the background), but other ones show 150+ at max settings with same or similar resolutions. Do they have something turned off that I'm not aware of, or am I really only getting 30% of my cards performance?
The temperature remains between 51C and 60C with the fan speed @ 100% and the previously stated clock speeds. [I can deal with the fan at 100% ...it's nothing compared to the noise my X1950XT made.]
I'm downloading 3dmark 06 to test my score on there and see how it relates. I'll report back. Any information regarding my problem, however, will be very helpful.
edit: I also have the latest drivers off NVIDIA's website and I removed the ATI ones.
