radeon 9600se

[jms61290]

i recently got a radeon 128mb 9600se built by ati. Before that i had a 64 mb Intel Xtreme 2. It seems that now my battlefeild vietnam lags a lot more than it did with the intel xtreme 2. The only difference is better graphics but i cant even play on the lowest settings without it lagging. If anyone knows why this might be happening please help me out becuase its too late to return it for a better one.

and i hope this can help u out ..

i have

640 mb ram (pc3200)
Intel chip based mother board
Pentium 4-Ht @2.80Ghz
160 GB Hard Drive

if u need to no anything else just ask me

thnks

First of all ATi 9600SE is not a good choice at all...its the worst card i've ever seen ... but it should work much better than the onboard one....i suggest u to some following steps: -

1. Update drivers (Mobo, Video, Sound)
2. Defrag ur HDD
3. Check Bios carefully, set the AGP Aperture size to 64mb
4. In the end, try Omega drivers..do little tweaking as well

I updated my video and my sound. Game perfomance is the same. intel sucks cause they dont even have any drivers for my motherboard. i dont think it even exists on the site. i defragged it recently so theres no point in doing it again cuase i did it like 2 days ago. i dont know how to change the bios or even get there and i dont know how to set the agp aperture and what should i do in the bios when i get there? whats an omega driver?

First of all to the bozo who said that this is the worst card
ever, you dont know nutn, I have a Radeon 9600se, A CELERON 2.4 400fsb, 1 gig ram, and I can play vietnam with the settings cranked on some maps, but at the very worst i have to tune the texture and geometry to medium with the graphix on high. So i think you should download the drivers from DNAdrivers. they are about the best i have used so far

With that integrated graphics, I don't think you will be satisfied with the way it plays Half Life 2. It may play it but not very well. Although the specifications on the retail box for HL2 don't say it (don't know why), your graphics card should support T & L and I don't think the Intel graphics does.

I don't have the other two games you mentioned so I can't say anything about them.

Integrated extreeme graphics should not be used!!!

All the people who are getting integrated extreeme graphics might think it sounds good because of the extreeme but it sucks u can get the update off intels web site but it hardly makes a difference if ur deciding to get it i sugest u get in touch with the manufacturer to get a better graphics card such as ati radeon or nividia g-force.

hope this helps :angel:

ps:remember to check if a fan comes with it, some dumbells complain about it over heating :haha:
