this is my system:
Intel P4 2266 Mhz 533FSB
512MB DDR333
ASUS P4S533 AGP4X
ATI RADEON 9800 Pro 128MB
40GB Maxtor HD 2MB cache
winXP SP1
The problems are like this:
First of all the benchmark results i got are relatively low for my system (1600*1200 4X\8X Max settings: flyby 59 FPS bot 29FPS)
I know they're low because of the results i saw on www.guru3d.com on the Gigabyte R9800PRO 128 MB
on an Athlon XP 1800 were flyby 60 bot 36 on the same settings.
My FPS is supposed to be higher because i have a faster CPU.
But the strangest problem is the FPS drop I have in DM plunge and other maps no matter what are the settings. Yes I mean it,
the fps was around 20(and lower) when i tried DM plunge at 640*480 min settings!!! (especially on the yellow building)
It is important to notice that no difference was felt between these settings and 1600*1200 max. on both settings the fps is acceptible and smooth in most cases, but at some maps I can see skips and lags and like i said the strange thing is that there is almost no difference between lowest settings and highest settings.
I TRIED EVERYTHING:
running on win 98
I tried all the driver versions from 3.2 to 3.6
I have DX9
I tried to force OpenGL
I turned off AA\AF\Vsync
I have v2225 Patch
NOTHING SOLVED THE PROBLEM
PLEASE HELP R9800PRO cost me 400$ an I WANT FPS!!!
oh and, one more thing: there is no chance that i got ripped of because i saw the chipset and its clock speeds on rage3dtweak
and I got 5300 in 3Dmark03
