I think your CPU is the only reason you're not closer to 80FPS.

I tested a friends system after I put on W7 x64. His GPU is the same as yours but he has a q9550 @ 2.8 (stock). His system was pulling +80FPS in a busy server maxed out with 4xAA/16xAF HBAO on A 1280x1024.

yeah i had 2x 512mb 4970s (not an x2, but same thing) and got 80+ regularly with my i7. I had a few things set to med, hbao off, and aa/af as trip said, only i was playing at 1080p. as he said 1280x should be able to max out...

For anyone debating between the 5850 and 5870.

demowhc said:
Both good cards but the 5850 is better value.

Just for reference a 5850 needs clocks of 940/1200 to beat a default 5870 in every aspect.

5870 850/1200:
Texture fill rate - 68000
Pixel fill rate - 27200
Shader ops - 1360000
Mem bandwidth - 153.6

5850 940/1200:
Texture fill rate - 68040
Pixel fill rate - 30240
Shader ops - 1360800
Mem bandwidth - 153.6



And 5850 Crossfire at 810/1000 matches a 5970 while also having a large lead in pixel fill rate.

5970 725/1000:
Texture fill rate - 116000
Pixel fill rate - 46400
Shader ops - 2320000
Mem bandwidth - 256

5850 CrossfireX 810/1000:
Texture fill rate - 116640
Pixel fill rate - 51840
Shader ops - 2332800
Mem bandwidth - 256

Personal preference. I’d rather have precise shots than shots that are all over the place. I am sure I could train myself to play @ 4,000 but I like being in control of my cursor.

I think mine is currently around 1500 or so but I have 4 profiles on my mouse and the fastest (or tank rape as I call it) is 5600DPI horizontally and 2000DPI vertically. It's almost unfair... like Eyefinity.

But the real question is, is he more precise than you, or am I with my sweet 800dpi. :laugh:

I've been considering getting a new mouse for exactly this reason - throwing a tank around at 1800dpi isn't much different to 800dpi. Pretty hard task finding an appropriate mouse though. I have fucking big hands, so it needs to be big and heavy, and it needs to have at least as many buttons as my MX518.

The MS Sidewinder mice a good for huge hands. The mouse I have (Rapoo V3) is absolutely amazing I bought 2 of them and sold one to a friend. He has huge hands where I am closer so med and the mouse works well for both of us.

WTF? I don't get why people need 4000 dpi and such haha it sounds crazy to me :S

I use 1000 DPI and it does full 180 turn with 1*1/2 slides on my mouse pad which in my preference is perfect.



oh and @triptex do you think that mouse will do better than my G5? I think Its time I buy a new mouse.

What AA and AF are you hoping for?

I got my 5850 to 900mhz (havent touched the mem yet) and I can test it @ 1680x1050 later tonight. @1920 with DX11, 2xAA/4xAF, and HBAO It averages just under 60FPS.

I want to run these settings at around 70-80FPS
1680x1050 | 4xAA 4xAF | DX11 | HIGH Setting | HBAO

Didnt ever use a G5 so I can't be sure. I can say the feet on this mouse are amazing. The material is very similar to the Teflon feet on the Razer Mamba and has shown no wear since I bought it.

I want to run these settings at around 70-80FPS

I'll give it a shot when I get home. :toast:

4000DPI makes a difference when your screen is 5670x1080. For anything other than eyefinity, I drop it down to 1600. 1600 means that I have to lift the mouse twice off the desk, to make a full circle.

I highly recommend the Lachesis, it has served me well. (I have reasonably large hands. it is NOT heavy though (which I like)

as far as precision, if I am doing long range sniping I tone it down. however, I had to up the in-game sensitivity (.5 standard to .55) because I was getting a sluggish feeling when I played. I plan on upping it to .6 when I finish Sniper class. as assault I could land head-shots with the AN-94 almost every kill (so long as you didn't pop around a corner making me twitch my cursor out of the screen)


I used to play on 2700ish but when I moved to a 24inch monitor it wasn't enough. I can do 2.5-3 full turns before lifting my mouse.

I love my Lachesis when it works. I've been through three of them now. The first one barely worked, there was a short in the sensor. The 2nd one worked great for two weeks and died. The third, is quickly dying as well. The sensors they use in the Lachesis are utter garbage, and I'm done with them.
