As you can see by my computer specs i don't think i have a crappy set up here. But i did a timedemo from this site and i got only 40FPS (afterwards not the whole way through) on Half-Life 2...

Settings I Have for HL2:

1024x768
AA = 4x
AF = 8x
everything else defaulted to DX9 (if any questions about the defaults please ask)


i lowered the AF to 4x and 2x then finally Trilinear*. i only got a 4-7FPS increase at the end in the console message. i then left it at trilinear and set the AA to None*, it went to 52 or 57 FPS (can't remember).

This card is built by ATI and is brand new just started using it this month i have overclocked it a little bit with Rage3d to 382/684... The reason i have not gone any higher is due to the fact that i do not know my video card's limits and from the touch of the top of the card it's pretty warm if not "hot".


all responses are welcomed, thanks

Which demo? Seems like an alright result. Only thing I can think of is you got vsync on.
