no use for a name 0 Posted September 7, 2009 (edited) I know several people with 4890's that can run the game with very high settings and get 30+FPS. I'm ot sure if they're using OC'd cards, resolution, or what driver ver. they're running though. But 24" screen is a lot of pixels to fill, you might have to sacrifice some effects to get good FPS Edited September 7, 2009 by No Use For A Name Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

no use for a name 0 Posted September 7, 2009 yeah it wouldn't hurt to get at least 1 more gig; but I wouldn't count on it giving a huge increase. I'd say to just play around with the settings until you find a happy-medium for eye candy/performance. Not many systems can run this game with max settings @ high resolutions/large monitors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you running PCI Express 2.0 or 1.0? (Because of your processor.) Also, you're using an old generation CPU. It's essentially a Athlon 64 times 2. Very insufficient architecture. There could be other issues but you should focus on the bigger things for now. A new CPU/Motherboard/RAM etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
angerb0y 10 Posted September 7, 2009 ye PCI Exp 2.0, my motherboard is an asrock k10n78 pretty good. also i have a AMD x64 X2 processor :P sorry i forgot to name the "X2" ... i tried to overclock my 4890 but my comp wont let me.. it keeps getting errors and reboots. so i just let it the way it was.. probably gonna have to find new CPU and some RAM thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bulldogs 10 Posted September 7, 2009 Don't worry about overclocking your graphics card, your CPU won't keep up with it at clock speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
