[Defiance]

Hiya's,

In game options i have to turn off V-Sync

I have AA on max (furthest right)

3D clouds i find drop fps so mainly have these un-checked

Shadows Off (think the fps drop is a bug to be fixed ? )

Light shafts off (my preference)

Windowed mode Off

Running 4890 xfire (no xfire due to game bug to be fixed) @ 1920x1200 Q6600 @ 3.6ghz and 8gig Mem in Vista x64 (sh5 installed direct to C:

Now as for driver options ...............

I have tried leaked/official and Preview

At the moment i am on Preview 10.4a off ati's site

Settings thus far in CCC are .................

AA - use app settings
Af x4 - (i'm still messing with this setting)
Cat AI - Disabled
Mipmap - High Quality
Wait for vert refresh - Off unless app specifies
Adaptive AA - Off
Triple Buffering - Off

So many variations but these for now until high fps rate killing mouse movement bug is fixed and hopefully the lack of xfire due to v-sync problems

Maybe use the above settings as a "ballpark" to get your card running smooth

Hope this might help you and maybe others

added ............ for ati

Ohh i have used driver cleaners with no ill-effects but some report problems, so just use ctrl panel remove options in windose, and install driver

Some leaked/beta ati drivers won't fully install unless previous drivers were removed, BUT, as a whole ati drivers are over-the-top-install, meaning say you have official 10.2 you just install 10.3 without having to remove 10.2 driver, if a new driver seems to install in under 20secs you can bet you need to remove previous driver first or you'll never get a fully working driver/ccc
