Hi guys, I just bought a ATI HD 4670 for my desktop a couple of hours ago. I installed the driver on the cd, went to the website and updated to the latest drivers, updated DirectX 9, and I used windows update as well.
I then started playing games to test it out; all the reviews I’ve read of it so far have said that I can play ALMOST ANY GAME on this card at MAX SETTINGS, on a 1280x1024 resolution.
I’m running that resolution, but I still constantly fall below 30 FPS!!! It often goes down to 20! It sometimes even goes down to 15, and that’s after I’ve LOWERED a lot of the settings!!! The games I’m testing it on are Left 4 Dead, Stronghold 2, LOTR: BFME 2 and Halo: Combat Evolved.
The thing is that I have a Pentium 4 524 HT 3.06 Ghz, 1 MB Cache and 533 MT/s FSB.
But I over clocked it to 3.34 Ghz, and is still hasn’t improved the FPS… so I’m thinking there’s a CPU bottleneck…
What do u guys think? Is there anything I can do to improve performance?...
Thanks.
