running fear at recommended settings high high no soft shadows 1024x768 noaa 4xaf

2.8c at 3.2
1 gig corsair XMS 2.2.2.5
radeon x850 pro oc'd to XT PE

below 25 - 0%
25-40 - 26%
40+ - 74%

min-30
average- 60
maximum - 118

the problem is almost constant stuttering of the game... almost unplayable. seems like im running it at 12fps.

I don't get that because on the timedemo I only go down to 30. I was playing it with 2xaa at one time but on the level im on I can't do anything. any help will be appreciated...
 
i play at 1280x1024 with 4aa/16af and everything at max...rig in sig
 
I bet he chokes pretty bad in lots of spots running those details.

I run either 1280x1024 2xaa/8xaf with a mixture of high & medium settings -or- 1024x768 4xaa/8xaf with mostly high settings.

I still see fps in the 20's in heavily lighted & shadowed areas. I just move quickly through those chokers. But mostly 30+ fps and the game is beautiful.

Try messing with settings like your AGP apeture size, PCI latency, even loosen your memory timings a bit, all in the BIOS, and see if it helps your stuttering problem. I know 2 gigs of ram and no virtual memory/page file will help BIG TIME.
 
ive got 2 gigs ordered... my Ram is loosened all the way for my overclock 2.8-3.2. I will tell you where I am having trouble at...


the level is : urban decay

what do I need to adjust pci latency for? i have my ratio fixed AGP:pci in bios...
 
it does benefit from more RAM, but i get hitching even sometimes with 2GB of RAM and a 512MB card when I have settings really really high, also the save game places cause this
 
whats the latest release? I still have 1.0 ... will the newer releases increse fps or help with this problem? how much?
