Poor performance/FPS

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I have found out what my problem is..

my video cards are not going into thier 3D clocks (848/828), and are playing the game in 2D clocks only (506/513)..I havnt had this problem with any other games..even if I disable crossfire the same thing happens...

I have found that if i open ATI tool if forces the first card to run at 3D clocks all the time, so atm I am playing with 1 card and leaving ATI tool open while i play.

1 card runs the game great (when its in 3D clocks ) at 4xaa and 4xaf 1680x1050 and vsync on..sits on 60 fps so ill just play with 1 card for now and spam ATI support..


and jdkbph about the 3GB ram thing, yes the 3GB run in dual channel mode in a 2x1GB and 2x512mb config on a ga-x38-dq6 mobo. iv run bandwidth tests etc which are fine and cpu-z, windows, everest and the mobo all report the ram is indeed running in dual channel.

anyway thanks for ur help guys, Im off to sink some Japs!
