doom 3 runs like sh@@

[icyredsol8181]

ok heres my setup:
2500xp
1024 pc 2700
leadtek 6800gt


i will be playing the single player game and i get alot of dragging of the graphics, at first i set the settings at ultra, thought that was the problem......then i put them on high, but still the same. i have allt he setting on yes besides the v sync and the aa to 2x. i would think the card i have would run this game alot better.

if your running it at 1600x1200 then the 2500xp and the 2700 ram is a huge big ass bottle-neck.

 

[Bateluer]

Your CPU and RAM are a bit on the slow side. Have you tried turning off the AA entirely? Doom3 is just as dependent on CPU and memory speeds as it is on GPU speeds.

 

[Rage187]

Your chip is a Thouroughbred also and not a Barton, thats another strike agianst it.

 

[icyredsol8181]

ITS A BARTON YOU MORON...DONT POST IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR TALIING ABOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[iversonyin]

what resolution you run it on?

wha about AA and AF options? did you try to turn them off?

Yikes, how rude

:Q

 

[icyredsol8181]

im running at 1024-768 an i do have aa and af off. the driver im using is the one that came with the card. i was told that the leadtek drivers are the best ones for my card, which is a leadtek....

 

[Rage187]

You should be using the drivers from Nvidia, which last I checked were the 61.77's.

Although the 65.62's are good as well.

 

[icyredsol8181]

alright, ill try them...see what happens

Thats your first problem.

The drivers that shipped w/ your card were released 3-4 months ago.

How bad exactly is "alot of dragging of the graphics". It could be your processor and memory.

Disable fastwrites.

 

[icyredsol8181]

not too bad, i m getting 55.7fps in the timnedemo.. but another question....what is the best overclocking tool you guys are using? i have been using winfox2.0, but i wanna try something different? oh heres aanother question whatr should my agp voltages set at?

 

[Rage187]

leave your voltages alone.

I use CoolBits to OC.

 

[icyredsol8181]

i think my voltages are set to 1.5, is that right?

 

[Rage187]

if thats what it defaults to, then its fine.

The GT's OC pretty well w/o having to up the voltage, so I would not suggest messing w/ them unless you know exactly what you are doing.

My GT did 390/1100 on air out of the box, and has been rock solid since I bought it. No change in voltage was needed.

Why are you all even acknowledging this guy after he posts something like this?

 

[Rage187]

Because I'm a nice guy and figured he was just frustrated when he posted that.

We all have our bad moments.

 

[iversonyin]

was the problem solve after installin new driver?

55 fps seem right since doom 3 capped at 60 fps
