Hey All

I have recently reformated my computer, and have bought the 7600gt. I was using a 5950 ultra before and i dnt see a dramatic increase in fps in css or tf2.... What frames should i be seeing in tf2 and css? Hopefully not 15-40max... mostly 28fps is wat i see in both games, and in firefights in tf2 its unplayable... I am running an older machine p43.06ht, 1.5gig of ram, and 400watt powersupply. I shoudl be getting at least 60fps in these games... shouldn't i?

Thanks

if you want to increase your frame rate then dont turn AA+HDR at the same time it will drop your frame rock bottom and well thats it :)

Im running in 1280x1024.... i shouldn't think that is a factor, or is is? The source engine should be a piece of cake for this card..

Thanks

I have read people's thoughts on the 7600gt and it seems like a decent card for this game... any thought?

Thanks

Dam thats pretty good. I honestly have no clue. What settings are you playing at? Does Half-Life 2 play the same? What about other games?

To be honest not sure about other games, just usually play CSS and TF2. Dust2 runs alright at 35fps, but any other map, like nuke, i get like 15-24fps and its just not a fun experience. I am running out of options.... should i return the card?

What settings do you play at? How much Anti-Aliasing?(AA) Turn off HDR and Bloom that should help.

somethings wrong for sure

i have a amd 3200+ (probably similar to your processor), a gig of ram, and a 6600gt (a significantly worse card) and i run smoothly on 1024*768 settings at mid-high although i turn off AA

Hey All

I have recently reformated my computer, and have bought the 7600gt. I was using a 5950 ultra before and i dnt see a dramatic increase in fps in css or tf2.... What frames should i be seeing in tf2 and css? Hopefully not 15-40max... mostly 28fps is wat i see in both games, and in firefights in tf2 its unplayable... I am running an older machine p43.06ht, 1.5gig of ram, and 400watt powersupply. I shoudl be getting at least 60fps in these games... shouldn't i?

Thanks

Get service pack two and try running the windows driver thingy.
