10 fps with HD 6950 1GB on CCC lvl 3 Rage
« on: May 31, 2011, 06:35:15 AM »
E8400 Core 2 Duo (dual core)
XFX HD 6950 1GB Overclocked XXX Edition
4GB DDR2 (2nd fastest DDR2) RAM

I'm on CCC level 3 with Particles turned OFF.
no AA.

Playing at 1680x1050.

10 fps when there's a lot of explosions or weapons fire.
60 fps when there are no mechs around.

and also stutter while looking at the middle base in TC_DeathValley.

HELP!

Thanks guys.
I guess I'm bottled at the CPU/RAM-bandwidth combination.
Totally shouldn't have upgraded from the GTX260 to HD6950... what a waste of cash.

I bet Battlefield 3 will suck on my computer as well.
The only hope is Diablo 3.

Have you tried running CCC lvl-1 yet? Just to see if it actually changes anything.

@Nitro_R

yeah, seems like i have the same problem...

my cpu usage is @ 60%
my RAM usage is @ 65%
and my GPU usage is @20-50%

-.-

but the strange thing is, i have full usage @ witcher2, dirt3, Crysis Warhead.. and all other "new" games... they are running great... but only mwll..

Try Crysis/Wars Vanilla, without the mod.
See how frames are in there so we have a comparsion.

Well I was just about to make a thread about this.

i7 920 4.3ghz
GTX 580 3gb x2
12gb DDR3 triple ram
win 7 x64
5760x1200

Running the game DX10, x64, max settings, 12 AF, 8x AA.

MWLL 0.4.9 Average FPS was 40-50fps, 30fps on frostbite. Game completly playable and almost completly smooth.
MWLL 0.5.1 Average FPS is 20, 10fps on SA. Game completly unplayable, juttery and stuttering all the time. SA turns into a slide show. Top of hanger FPS has gone from 90-120fps, to 30, hell it sometimes drops lower.

Needless to say, I am NOT HAPPY.

I've tried disabling AA, and AF, gained 0-2 fps. I have deleted the shader folder, and I even reset my Nvidia 3d settings in case I changed something and forgot. The game just runs like shit :(

Anyone got any suggestions?

P.S, I will try running warhead, and seeing how well it runs, I will also try running the game on a single screen. But other games like BFBC run flawlessly at 60fps on max settings.

There is also a separate 0.5.0 Performance Drop thread, if you want to add your issues in there as well.

Interesting, I haven't seen a difference in fps at all from 0.4.9 to 0.5.x...

Try deleting the shader cache.
Did you delete your old 0.4.9 mwll folder before installing 0.5.0?

Oh and Nitro: Overclock your CPU to at least 4GHz, should make a huge difference.

Of course I did all of that.

And he needs a new CPU, duel core is no good these days for gaming, and thats just from the CPU artictecture being crappy. The extra cores/threads and MHZ just makes it even better choice to upgrade.

His CPU is MAJOURLY bottlenecking his graphic card, not that his ram is helping him much either.

wait....

I have the same CPU running, 460GTX, running lvl 4 and I have easily over 30fps.

Is the ATI a multiple GPU one?  I know that some guys were having issues with it not using it fully.

*sadpuppyface*

I guess I'll re-evaluate what I need when Battlefield 3 comes out, and think about an upgrade then...
If only my other computer didn't die 3 years ago...I would have upgraded like last year and not had a problem.
So lame.

My HD6950 1GB OC only has a single GPU.
Square, are you smooth when in a melee with SRMs and AC in your face?

When there's no combat, I get 30-50fps with CCC lvl 3 with LESS particles.
When I am in intense combat with lots of explosions, my screen stutters for seconds at a time.
Even if I use the Warhead "All Low" settings this occurs.

Squared, what RAM do you have?

I've got 4GB of ddr2 1066 ram.  When i'm getting "shake locked" by srms does drop a bit and freezes sometimes. That being said, it just installed the latest beta drivers from Nvidia and the performance is much better. Freezing and stutters happen much less
