Tom's Hardware Graphic Charts

*beats newb over head with own newbishness*

Hi people, just wondering if some one could help me, i have a 8800gt graphics card in a quite new but not high end PC (specs below), and i have few games; Setters: Rise Of An Empire, and Bioshock, along with Crysis.

In Bioshock travelling forward or backwards the FPS is really smooth, but when turning around its like the frame rate drops quite a bit (judders) but according to Fraps its between 30-60, i've also tried it without fraps, and also when navigating around in Setters the screen judders alot.

Could this be to do with my PC i.e ram not enough, PSU, something else or just my graphics card not powerful enough.

I read on one website that using a wireless keyboard and mouse is a bad idea when navigating in a game because of the slow signal compared to a wired mouse and keyboard.

If someone could help i would be very grateful.

Regards,
Lee

System specification:

HP m9065 Elite PC
Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit
Q6600 Quad Core CPU@2.4Ghz
3GB ram@666Mhz
Standard HP PSU (according to HP its about 350watts)
Nvidia 8800gt 600/1600/900
500GB Hard Drive
2x320 Personal Media Drive
Wireless keyboard & mouse

Turn off vsync, switch to xp and wired peripherals, get a better PSU, some proper ram in dual channel and a new wife.

First off strangestranger just cause I don't post a lot doesn't mean I an a newb I have been a loyal reader off Tom's site for a long long time, and the reason I don't post a lot is cause most of my question get answered with out having to post I just look for the answer... and thirdly the man reason I dont like posting is because of ass***es like you

lee2008 please go and steal someone eases thread

shaundwm that's for coming to my deference

The reason I would like to see an update to the Graphic charts is cuase I am looking at a major upgrade

I am currently running 2 x 8800GTS 640 cards and would like to look at my oppositions

if you have been a long time reader, you would have known this question is always asked every time the charts are not updated for a while and the same answer are always given you little noob, i was giving you the benefit of the doubt being a newb, but clearly you're worse than that.

*beats noob over head with own noobishness*

go fcuk yourself, ever since i can remember people have been asking for this to be updated, search yourself you lazy damn noob.

lee2008, is your card the 256mb variety? It sounds like youre running out of vram when you turn around. By turning around, youre asking your card to process a 360% capture of everything you can see. If so, the only thing you can do is get a card with 512 mb vram

Couple of things,

1. Sorry JayMan but strangestranger is right, yes i know that tact isnt a strong point as far as strangestranger is concerned and un necessarily harsh wouldn't be a bad description of the response you received, but then again as a long time reader you should already know to expect that.

2. In defence of JayMan the search part of these forums is about as much use as a chocolate fire guard. I have been doing this for a long time now and the search has never yielded any results, i mean none not ever. I personally gave up using it a long time ago.

3. lee2008. You have your answer courtesy of JDJ but please don't hijack a thread again, its not the done thing. No im not a mod just a helpful bystander

Search Results

NotebookCheck Should only be used as a general idea, it's terribly inaccurate !!

The ranking is rather arbitrary and based on 3Dmark results. The only advantage to it, is that it's somewhat alone in having a list to begin with.

ye, i think it is, for one it defaults to searching only general u.k and ireland discussions and you have to make sure to specify the section although i do not get the option of a subsection.

something screwed up somewhere. also, i am sure i managed to get something to come up with related threads to one of my searches, not sure how i did that.
