I am running SLI and am not having any issues since I turned the shaders to 2.0 instead of 3.0.

Oh Snap why are you so negative? You like to feel big about yourself by picking apart peoples comments and rewording them to your distasteful effect?

If you are not being constructive in some way or another you are not helping the OP with their problem or query are you?

You may ask how is this helping as a retort, well by trying to stop negative comments from ruining an otherwise decent forum. If you are having a bad day I would suggest going outside for a change, you spend far too much time on these forums as it is.

Calm down. I was saying that it's kind of retarded that the game would have so many issues with SLI when a game with that kind of graphical detail would almost require SLI at higher resolutions like 2560x1600.

Take a chill pill buddy.

Im now at level 34 and have realised just how much the game changes after tortage. The initial surprise at interesting missions and the odd "cut scene" has long since dissapeared the graphical polish of the early areas seems to have passed and Im now seeing some distinctly dodgy looking graphics, and FAR too many kill x mobs missions. In fact I dont think Ive had anything but Kill X mobs Kill Y boos and deliver this missions in the last 12 levels :(

Whats more Im heading for the quest free zone apparantly when It will be back to plain mob grinding for xp. I plan on making it to level 40 to get my mount and try crafting, but I suspect that the nice fatalaties and combat system are going to be all this game has to offer long term, and thats not enough for me.

I may well return to the game later when theyve had time to add some better content.

Of course if the crafting turns out amazingly good fun I could stick around for that :D

Don't forget that the first real dungeon (where a tank a healer and dps is needed) or instance begins at level 38 or so. Everything else before it can be done solo or with just another person. I have not tried as of yet but, zoned into it the other night.

I cannot remember the name of the dungeon becuase I am at work but it is in the Wildlands.

Burning Sanctum. Great fun and when you hit around 50-52 you can go back and solo it for the goodies =)

Here's my understanding of Age of Conan, since I'm playing it. I've been told it is multi-core optimized (C2D & C2Q). However, SLI is not implemented, and if memory serves one of the very first patches they implemented disabled DX10.

I've not played the game myself, but have you tried forcing different SLI modes such as alternate frame rendering/split frame rendering, etc?

It could be an issue with a particular SLI mode.

You really need to get over it, having the last word doesn't make you appear dignified in any way at all. You're both childish for arguing like 2 kids in a sandbox over whether your red shovel is better than his orange pail - you both look stupid, sorry.

No one wants miserable lonely noobs like you around. I have the game, and answered my own questions now.

Why would a retard like yourself post in a Game specific forum, when you have no idea about the game, since you dont own it, and probably couldn't play it on your junk system even if you did own it.

wtf? are you that guy that runs around tortage as a female toon, topless, typing naughty language in the OOC chat bar, just because it is a "M" rated game? Just wondering here.

It will be released when Euro version is released.


Do you have a link to something regarding this? Like I said I've yet to test it out but there is a DX10 option in the game I have and it's clearly advertised all over the Funcom site and on the game packaging so it would be hard to believe that they actually left it out.



The DX10 is not currently enabled in AOC. But I sure wish it was!

I'll check that when I get home. But I'd still like to see what settings/benchmarks you have. I know from playing the game and talking to people in game that on high settings 75fps does not seem correct. 50fps is a little more in line with what most people are getting so I think the whole 75fps is either due to very low settings or just plain BS.



I'm running the game on an AMD dual core at 3.2Ghz, 4gb ram, and a single evga 8800gtx.

In most places in AOC, I run at a steady 67 fps, with all graphics set to "High".

In populated areas in game, such as cities, the fps drops to low 40's.


Not "taking any sides"... just providing some information.

Reply to Ral_Partha

At what res? You have to realize that without that information your post is all but meaningless. The only thing I know is you are running less than 1900x1200.
