<div class="IPBDescription">from 85 to 30</div> Hi guys,


I recently noticed a dramatic fps drop ingame since ns3.0 I use to play at 85 constant and now i drop to 30 when in fight. Here's my spec
Windows xp pro sp2
Geforce fx5900
p4 3gig
1 gig or corsair ram
i use the latest official nvidia driver : 71.84


Windows force my game to runs at 60 fps so i use nvrefresh to to set up my resolution 1280-1024 to 85mhz so the game runs at 85 fps (when i look at a wall)

I dont want to turn off the vsync because it look choppy and it tears my eyes appart
i turned off all the antialiasion -antitropic or whatever its called,
I tried to run at a lower resolution and it doesnt help
I runned norton antivirus, adaware and spybot to see if there is background crap

thx for the help

Reinstall your drivers by this time use <a href='http://www.drivercleaner.net/' target='_blank'>DRIVERCLEANER</a>

Registry cleaners don't do the same thing as driver cleaners. Drivercleaner was made specifically to get rid of existing ATI and nvidia drivers to avoid incompatibilities with new drivers.

Did it work?

With that card you should be getting 100 fps all the time.

Turn vsync off, consider dropping resolution down a level, type fps_max 999 into console, yadda yadda. turn anistrophic filter off in your card settings and use gl_texturemode gl_linear_mipmap_linear in console.
