Default 4850 slow?

Just bought 2x1gb of OCZ Reapers ram.
Also a 4850.
My fps in CSS is hovering around the 50 mark
My 8800gt was 80+

Soooo......

I uninstalled nvidia drivers, then installed ati, rebooted when asked to everytime
Using the hotfix drivers as well
Fan speed is also set at 50% so heat shouldn't be an issue
Any ideas?

Did you check your catalyst settings? Make sure everything looks normal (like make sure it isn't forcing 16x AA or something absurd). Download GPU-Z (do a google search) and make sure your card isn't underclocking itself, or running at a 4x pci-e lane or something.

If you dont like the signatures that go as follows "*insert high percentage here* of people have *insert random verb.* If you are part of the *enter low percentage that adds up to 100 with previous percentage* that *insert the antonym of the verb used previously* then put this in your signature" then put this in your signature!!!

Or you guys could realize that he's using the "hotfix", meaning that it's ATI's way of saying "oh snap we need drivers so people can actually use our product, let's try to make one by lunch." and chill until a real driver comes out. ATI is notorious for making awkward drivers, and I can say that after more than 6 months of having a 3870.

Wow o.O my 4850 works great. I get smooth fps in all my games even Crysis (1920x1080)

Reset your video settings to default. Use the latest full release CCC.
