My Rig:
P4 [email protected]
MSI 865PE
1.5GB DDR400
WD360ADFD
x1950PRO AGP (HIS)
Running BF2 (my main game) on all HIGH settings (except no AA or AF) and getting average 50fps (ranging from 38-86)
The game tends to skip like an old cd
Even though I am getting good FPS the game skips almost like it is not rendering a few frames correctly, it's very strange
So I lowered the settings to MEDIUM (still no AA or AF) and the same skipping problem happens. Even though I am getting slightly higher FPS, about 55-60 average
I have tried:
Reinstalling Windows XP, even tried installing Vista with no luck
Installed newest drivers
Used ATI Tools, scanned, no artifacts or frame skips what so ever that I can see
Installed another game, Company of Heroes, I can play this game on FULL Settings, 8x AA and 8x AF (16x AF kills the fps whenever lots of action is happening)
This seems to be an issue only relating to BF2...Anyone else running this game with a similar setup? Let me know how it works for you.
Also, one other thing I noticed about this card, if the fan is not set to 100% the card will get to about 62 degrees and artifact like crazy. Maybe this is related? I just bought this card about 2 weeks ago so the best I can do is RMA to Newegg for a replacement...
