That sounds about right anyway, i get just under 300 with a 4870X2 so your 250ish is fine, heck if ya getting over 60FPS then who realy cares?
EDIT: o ok so 110ish? yea ok i must admit that might be a bit low, have you tried different drivers? Last edited by Melvis; Sep 24, 2010 at 08:40 AM. |

Whats the practical purpose of having over 60 FPS if your monitor only refreshes 60 times/second?

cod runs a lot better at 125 fps then 60 fps.... dont know exacly why but it does.
you can shoot faster and such. its not about how many frames you see. (personal expiriance from cod 4.)

Absolutely, it's just a case of how your graphics card is scaling with your processing power. I had superb fps on COD4 both online and offline when my old q6600 was clocked at 3.7 with an HD 4870X2 and that was at 1920x1080. With BFBC2 it was the same situation, I then clocked it down to 3.0ghz and the gameplay experience was shockingly different. MOAR CPU power needed

Well at first i thought too that cpu could be the bottleneck, but i have friends with lower cpu power, less ram and lower gpus who manage to get 250 fps on low gfx and decent resolutions like 1280*720 and 1280*1024. For example on of my friends has the following specs:
c2d 2.4ghz 2gb ddr2 ram 800mhz gts250 1 gb and he manages to pull off 250 fps on lowest gfx no AA, and even 333 stable in pam4 mod cod4. |

I think you need to overclock the balls off your CPU and GTX460 and you'll have a nice increase for sure.
CPU overclock in bios, and GTX460 overclock using MSI Afterburner. its weird you get the same FPS even if you lower the res and change everything to low... |

its not a big deal but everyone seems to think the 460 is sex on the beach to be honest its performance at stock in many apps is comparable to a gtx 275-285 ish so in older games and without proper driver support yet dont expect magical fps to come without the magical fairy dust nvidia puts in there drivers
to be nicer about it wait for some new drivers and relax its not like your game is running at 15-25fps and is unplayable.

I agree that around 120 fps is the sweetspot for me. I've said it before and I'll say it again.
I know my eyes can't see the difference, but you sure can feel the difference in engine responsiveness. |

This might be a dumb question but did you enter the console command to unlock the max fps first?
\com_maxfps 0 will let the card push all it can. Last edited by TRIPTEX_CAN; Sep 24, 2010 at 07:03 PM. |
