I wouldn't be surprised if the FPs dipped below 35 if I do something like say. On carentan my lowest fps is 35, with everything turned on. only on very rare occasions have I seen a game/map that ran like such a dog as Carentan does. You should not expect stellar performance with your system, especially on Carentan. The HD4890 has plenty of memory and plenty of shader power to run at max texture resolution. Texture resolution is usually of no consequence to performance, and only affects your available video memory. they like it just fine in HL2.ĪA, you should get away with 2x, but if you're pining for every fps then simply turn it off, and make sure it's off in your CCC aswell. 19x12 is usually a little too high, depending on the game ofc. My HD4870's like to run at 14x9 or 16x10. The HD4xxx and higher do not like very low resolutions for some reason. Anything lower will most likely not yield performance increase and may even decrease performance.
Shadow complexity, effects and the water shader significantly affect performance so try to keep those down if you want higher FPS. If you can't gain 800+ mhz out of your overclock then don't bother, the performance increase will not be significant enough to improve your gaming experience. And as you probably know, overclocking can in some cases damage the CPU and/or GPU if not done correctly.
The Q6600 is known to be a great overclocer, so you might be able to increase it by another 500 MHz or 1 GHz even using the stock cooler.
What is your system make and model? Do you know what MB you have? What version of Windows are you running? You might actually find slightly better performance switching to another version, for example if you are using Vista, Windows 7 or even XP would be slightly better.Īnother thing you can try is to overclock your CPU and GPU but being able to do so depends on if you have an OEM desktop system (e.g., DELL) or a custom-built system.
RTS games like MoW are CPU and GPU dependent so you might want to try cleaning up your system and try to make sure nothing else is using your CPU unnecessarily while you are playing un-install any unused programs (especially if your hard drive is almost full), defrag your hard drive, turn off any unnecessary programs running in the background to avoid losing CPU cycles, update your video and audio drivers if you have not done so in awhile, and you might even want to consider reformatting & re-installing Windows to ensure you remove any leftover crap if your Windows install is 1-2 years old.
