Don't get me wrong, it was a powerful enough card in its own right, and even beat my G92 (which was overclocked to GTS 250 performance levels) in TES:Oblivion. But in just about every other game it was no contest. What I don't get is why you are limiting yourself to the GTS 250. Is it a price range thing? Having owned all the cards we're talking about I can firmly recommend picking up a 4870. You can get them used for not too much over $100 if you really shop around. |
I mean , I do have a job , and can afford to buy it , but I do have other things I need to get.
I can't be spending a whole whack on it ya know.
After a bit of testing, I've found my card can't play 1280x1024 with everything on high without lagging , I can't have any AA at all , otherwise I get big green pixels all over the screen.
I have to have it at 1024 by 768 on high , no AA
btw , at that last res , I get 25ish FPS
This is Crysis btw.
Also , I have someone who's gonna me PM me details for shipping to canada on a visiontek 4870 , but I think it might end up being a bit too pricey -_-
Also , I never thought of updating my drivers ?
I just put in the disc that came with it.

). Also the drivers on the disk are always terrible, you should update asap.
