I was playing RTCW and i could see it was running slow so i checked the fps and it was only 39fps in 1024x769x32
and with most option at full.
my specs
P4 2.0ghz
ASUS P4B266 i845D
512mb DDR PC2100
Geforce3 TI 200
All the things have the latest drivers

What could be wrong???

Yes, that's very low! I get more than twice the FPS with everything MAX on my Radeon 8500. Something is defintely wrong!

told down one again. Oh well. I get 15fps on my radeon 64mb vivo 1600x1200 max all and antianalasing 4x. He probably dident turn on antianalasing. 15fps seems slow but I swear It goes faster because it dosent shutter at all.

lol, 1600*1200 with 4X antialiasing? Even a GF3 can't handle that smoothly and a GF4 can barely. Anyway, if you're happy with 15fps then that's ok. I personally hate anything under ~50fps.

I swear my radeons great. Like I said I don't notice 15fps at all because it runs smoothly. Also I overclocked it to 205mhz and Put memory latency and memory timing at fast +various outher tweeks.

Perhaps it would have make some sense if you ran the game with AA on, but you said you didn´t, so...I have no clue.
Sorry.

Lingon är gott iallafall.

Alla kanter runt objekt blir "luddigare", det ser ut som om dom "smälter" samman bättre med omgivningen.
"Vassheten" försvinner kan man kanske säga.
Nackdelen är att detta minskar prestanda drastiskt.
Du måste ha en riktigt fet burk för att få bra flyt i spelen.
Jag har ett pissigt Geforce2MX kort, när jag kör med AA på det så blir det olidligt och totalt ospelbart.

Fast, du har ju ett bra kort så jag fattar inte varför du får så dåliga framerates...

Eh, nu blir dom säkert förbannade för att vi använder svenska...det är ju ett "internationellt" forum :wink:

Sorry, all non-swedish speaking fella´s.
Just babelfish it. lol.
