Hi there m8s!!
Well pretty happy right now... I just change parts of my computer and now I CAN PLAY THE GAME in the way I want...
first I want to thanks "KevinM" and "Linavitch" for their help in testing some parts of the game, thanks to those test I finally buy the new stuff
thanks guys
lets see:
before:
SEMPRON 2800+ @ 1999 mhz (donīt reach 2000 sorry LOL) (old 472 socket)
ASUS A78VX-X
EVGA 7800GS OC (430-1300)
1,5 GB DDR1 RAM @ 333
HD 2 x 80 GB (IDE 133)
WINXP SP2
NOW:
CORE2DUO E6600 @ 2,4 ghz (new stuff)
ASROCK 4CORE-VSTA DUAL (new stuff)
EVGA 7800GS OC (430-1300)
1,5 GB DDR1 RAM @ 333
HD 2 x 80 GB (IDE 133)
WINXP SP2
benchmarks: (all options ON,1024x768)
At Pearl port 1941 start of campaign... (take note that Pearl is one of the most CPU+GPU intensive parts fo the game...)
before : inside sub.......: 20 FPS
F5 bridge view.: 10-14 FPS
free cam........: 8-10 FPS
now (same situation) :
inside sub........: 60/100 FPS (and no problems at 1024 TC!)
F5 bridge view..: 25 FPS (those 11 more really counts!)
free cam..........: 25/28 FPS great
and if I turn off the "monolith of death a 2001 space odyssey in game" :rotfl: (aka Env effects
) the 25 goes to 30/33 FPS... nice! (hope they will add more performance in next patch to that specific nice water effect and fix the monolith and quite invisible crew...)
(hey! pretty the same as you
Linavitch! same mother+CPU, yeah!! I think a lot in your benchmark when I first enter the game... believe me really a high tension moment here!! hehe then after ctrl-F8 : WE DID IT
)
So Iīm very happy with my PC right now... in other parts of the game like nav school or free ocean (under campaign) things are super smooth for my eyes (30 FPS and up is fine with this type of game...and the human eye donīt see much difference after those numbers...) (but I still want AA please!!!
)
I can also play oblivion very well (even on cities) and SHIII with Grey Wolves is other game here... in ports much more FPS before was a slide show...company of heroes also super nice, you was right Linavitch core2duo was the move to do (in my $ sytuation)... and with this VSTA mother I can use all the stuff I have here... so if you are with a AGP system and a low CPU have all this in mind for an quite low $$$ upgrade of your system... any help Iīm here.
uff!! this was llloonnggg
well thanks for reading and time to play now!
