8800GTX unplayable performance

HAHA GREAT SUCCESS! renaming exe to bioshock fixed her right up. Runs smooth as butter, thanks for the help. I don't have xfire running just so everyone knows.

Yeah not every system runs equal and taking off xfire for some it does help fps

[peedonurpoptart]

Yeah, I forgot, I don't have a proc. hahah jk can't believe I forgot that in my specs, its a core duo 2 e6600 o/c 3ghz vcore 1.325. I'm going to try to make a bioshock profile now and see if that helps.

The Xfire thing is bs imo. Doesnt have any effect on my framerate.

That statement is bs. Want my screenshots of fps with it on and off to prove it? Off costant 60 fps never drops no matter how many people in front of me. Turn it on and it drops to 40. Most of the people that are noticing this problem seem to be running 8800 cards.

it has an effect on some machines.... the xfire thing.... so dont knock it as ppl had their frames increased dramaticly by this.... to the OP, you gotta post what CPU you are using otherwise you wont get help here. Try donwloading the very latest sound drivers, that could be your problem. Or try different sound driver to one your using at least. Some games have problem with the X-fi card.

and stop downloading porn and other dodgy stuff!!LOL

hmm..I thought UT is more graphics card locked than CPU locked...

What is your processor?

Do you have Xfire running?

[Brutal]

yeah heard that by turning off xfire you get more fps

[karmatized]

no thats not his issue, i have the same issue, it has to due with nvidia driver profiles. You have to rename your utdemo exe file to bioshock.exe

once you do that all will be fine

[flak.pt]

Turn off Xfire if you use it.

[Bjossi]

If he doesn't have a processor, it would explain the problem...

[Kusimeka]

what proccesor are you using? that would help solve the problem i think.

With those specs your game should be flying... I'm not sure bro, submit your specs to Epic. It could be a glitch with one of your hardware options.
