Losing frames...

**king_of_the_world** · January 12th, 2006, 06:31 AM

Hello...
lately i noticed that i m losing fps. Its very annoying and i cant understand how this happened. So far I had no special problems and I could download files at the same time without lose frames. I just made format(win xp sp2) but no improvement. Maybe my card(new) is not properly setted?
[athlon 64 3200+ Ram 2GB geforce 6600gt]

Where are you losing frames? Regular gaming, online gaming?

Check if you have all the drivers/updates installed for your motherboard/vga/other devices.

Your cpu/vga can be overheating and thus not performing at its best ability, check the temperatures.

**king_of_the_world** · January 13th, 2006, 03:47 AM

latest drivers r installed. Temperature is ok.
Any other ideas?...

Problem came up suddenly and insists after a clean xp install.

Where are you losing frames? Regular gaming, online gaming?

both.

I d like also to add that PcPitStop.com says me about card that i have..."low video performance" (just 47% of similar owners). I asked them why but couldnt explain.

We may have to continue asking questions b4 this is solved.
Like: did this start right after installing updated drivers? Sometimes, if the older drivers worked properly, there would have been no need to install new drivers.
Also: what games? All of them, whatever they are, or only certain ones?

Too touch on what RRRRRRRRR said, new drivers are not always the best. I have often had to roll back drivers to older versions to get the performance back I expect. It does not happen all the time but it does happen.

Also, you could reinstall your DX9c to make sure nothing got corrupted there.

ok then, tell me which drivers r the best for 6600gt.
Anyway,

Like: did this start right after installing updated drivers? Sometimes, if the older drivers worked properly, there would have been no need to install new drivers.

the answer is ΝΟ.

Also: what games? All of them, whatever they are, or only certain ones?

Havent tried lots..But I think problem is more obvious in games which requires more cpu power like ColinMacRaeRally 04. If i m not downloading something at the same time, things r better.But a week ago,i was able to play properly and download at the same time, with my new athlon64 3200+.

As to what drivers are best is usually its a trial and error situation.
Although I am not sure exactly what "looseing frames in a game" means.
Do you mean its freezing up?
Or its generally rendering the game slower?
The issue seems to have something to do with the network card.
What type of network card is this?

**king_of_the_world** · January 18th, 2006, 08:53 AM

yes...freezing up for a half or a whole second..or more. Imagine u drive a car and u stay immobile for a sec...when u find again your move, u r already crashed on a tree...(loooool).
We r not talking for any network, just fow off line games.

**Ferrit** · January 18th, 2006, 09:10 AM

what network is irrelevant you mentioned you had problems when downloading at the same time.
If i m not downloading something at the same time, things r better.

**king_of_the_world** · January 18th, 2006, 09:49 AM

dont mix things. That was about downloading movies from kazaa.Plz read more carefully what i said and if u still cant understand i ll explain u in details.

**Ferrit** · January 18th, 2006, 09:53 AM

And if you are downloading movies off kazza yer likely
1: using craked pirated crappy games
2: virused to the ying yang
3: spywared to the ying yang

Ferrit...
Its obvious "u have lost the ball", as we say in my country.
U havent understood anything. U ll cost me waste of time to explain but i have to do it, because of the wrong impressions u tried to give

Kazaa was just an exable. I use p2p as millions of users in all of the world. This has to do nothing with our point. Dont try mix the things with spywares, viruses and other craps. Dont worry, i use all the protection programms I need. The meaning of writing this, was something different. Seems u r not quite intelligent to get it(

)Open your "ears" now.
If u have a poor cpu and u try play a today's pc game, and downloading something(anything!) at the same time, then u ll probably lose frames(freeze up picture) while playing. But with a better cpu like athlon 64, u ll have no problems do them both at the same time properly.
