Well ive just bought a new pc as i was sick and tired of not being able to play games on their highest or near high settings. Every one of my games like splintercell/2 , Farcry , doom3 wont run at all on this new pc , i cant get higher than 32 fps even with everything set to the lowest settings !!
I updated my video card drivers to the latest , tryed previous versions , i have the lastest bios & direct x 9.0c , i just cant understand why after spending a great deal of money on a pc that i cant even run games that i have more than enough specs wise .. i cant even run splintercell on its lowest settings and with everything outside the game set to its lowest... i was getting 25 fps max in splintercell 2 .. ?! . I tryed disabling v_sync , uninstalling my video drivers and reinstalling them ,
i scored "4745" with 3dmark05 pro , is that about right ?
heres my pc specs :
-GIGABYTE GA-K8N PRO-SLI Socket 939 Motherboard
-AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 4400+ 2.2GHz Socket 939
-Corsair TWINX2048-3200PRO 2x1024Mb DDR400 ProSeries
-MSI NX6800Ultra-T2D256E PCI Express - 256MB
-Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum
-Task TK-952TX-JB 520W ATX 2.0 with single 120mm Blue LED fan (psu)
-Philips 22" 202P40 Real Flat CRT Monitor
-LG Electronics DVD-ROM Drive 16x
-Thermaltake Tsunami with window -black (case only)
-Windows xp pro sp2
-Seagate 120gig sata 7200rpm , 8mb cache
-Creative Gigaworks S750 THX 7.1 speakers
The sole reason i bought this pc was because i couldnt run games very well on my old pc , which actually runs games faster than this one !
please help
