Opinion on performance

[GreatPhilHansen]

I just wanted to see if I am getting normal performance on my setup. Here is my system:

Athlon XP 2600+ 512kb L2 cache
128MB Geforce FX 5900
1Gig pc3200 DDR
Soundblaster Live 5.1

Currently I am running UT2004 with max settings and 1280x960 resolution. If I am on an Onslaught map and am flying in the raptor my frames drop to around 20. On the ground I get about 30-40 average. In Halo with max settings and the same resolution I get about 20-30 frames. Is this what I should expect with my hardware? I don't have fsaa or ansiotropic filtering enabled either. Thanks for any input.

yeah thats about right for a 2600+. You are cpu limited.

The fx 5900 isn't exactly a trail blazer either.

yeah but for ut 2004 its plently fast. Aslong as it doesn't need to anything with shaders it does fine.
In the fly bys its probably getting above 60 all the time.

Try this drop the res down to 800x600 see if the frame rates change<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by entium on 07/06/04 10:14 PM.</EM></FONT></P>
