Hi there,
as the subject already states: I have massive performance trouble with my new graphics card.
My system:
Motherboard: ASUS P5K PRO
CPU: INTEL Core2 Quad (4x 2,4GHZ)
RAM: Kingston DDR 2 800 (2 x 2GB)
SOUND: CREATIVE X-FI Extreme Gamer
At first I had an ASUS EN8800GT. I could play Crysis properly on WinXP 32bit on "high". Now I bought a GAINWARD GTX280 on Friday and was looking forward to enjoy Crysis on "very high" on WinVista 64bit.
Well, what should I say? It is very frustrating to see that Crysis runs only on 15- 25FPS. I googled and found a lot of benchmarks with the new GTX280 series which promised high FPS on high resolutions.
I even tried to tweak the settings in the Nvidia control panel (www.tweakguides.com), but I cannot get more FPS. Even on "high" the FPS are not like they should be. Subjectively, I don't see a difference between my old 8800GT and my new GTX280 in Crysis. That cannot be, can it? Other games show extreme performance boosts. UT3 for example runs smoothly on 1680x1050 with full details at 100FPS.
I have got the latest drivers installed (Forceware [tried even the latest beta; used even Driver Sweeper to get rid of the old versions]) and DirectX 10 updated.
Desperately, I even tried to reinstall Crysis and give the unpatched Version a try, but the problem still occured. The same applies to whether I run the 64 or 32bit version.
Does anybody have a clue what the problem might be?
Thanks in advance for any help I might receive.
