8600 GTS 256MB at 1400 X 900

How much is my performance suffering by running at a resolution of 1400 X 900 with a 8600 GTS 256MB RAM. '

I wonder how much my performance is suffering on games like UT3 and Cod4. The rest of my specs are:

Intelc2d E6850 @3.00GHZ

400 GB HD

ASUS P5KC MOBO

2GB OCZ 800mhz RAM

Newest drivers installed? Are you jacking up the AA past 2x?

I have AA off. MY FPS goes way up if I have it up. I rather have native resolution than AA.

And 1400X 900 is the same as 1280x1024? I thought it would take more of the 256MB RAM of the vid card with the larger resolution.

I think it's just the UT3 demo not being optimized that well or something.

1440x900 is not a higher resolution it is just in a different aspect ratio, if your playing ut3 online try it offline and watch your fps go way up

How about the hiccips in the gameplay. LIke if I stay still and I turn there is a 'hiccup'. Is that just cuz it's a demo.

And Thanks for the responses, it helps
