First of all, hey folks (New guy here)
I've been browsing Tomshardware for a while now, being it looking for reviews for new hardware and/or using the site as a guide for buying new stuff for my pc.
Anyway, I'm having a persisting, kinda weird problem (to me anyway) My system seems to slow down when I'm running in my tv's native resolution of 1920x1080. It seems like it's everything that's slowing down. Be it windows desktop itself or playing games. The only thing that works is playing movies.
At first I thought it was my system that couldnt handle it, but installing fraps I noticed something weird. My FPS do not drop when for example playing Fallout 3. The thing that happens is, it seems the systems reaction time slows down. I'm currently running it in 1680x1050 smoothly but when I switch to HD (1920x1080) I find that from me moving the mouse or hitting a key 'till it actually reacts slows down alot and this is with exactly the same framerate.
I was hoping to be a little enlightened on the matter since I cant wrap my head around what's happening
My current system spec's are as follows:
Motherboard: P5n32-e sli plus
Processor: Core2 duo e-6600 @ 2,4GHz
RAM : 3gb corsair XMS2
Graphics: 2 x gtx 460 in SLI (I know they are waaaay overkill for my system but the rest is getting upgraded soon)
As part of my system switch I recently upgraded from a Gigabyte 9600gt and the exact same thing happened on that card
I hope someone can shed some light on this
Thanks ahead
