kklownboy 43 Posted October 29, 2007 7600gs...:whi: Anyhoo, you can us the "Flush" command, seems to work for alot of my friends, with nvidia chipsets and cards. Also you need to play at 800/600 to be cool in the north island. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpaceReverend 0 Posted October 29, 2007 Yea i got the Queens Gambit, i jut dont wanna play like 800x600 resolution, it looks like hell, besides i have 19" widescreen monitor so the best resolution is 1440x900. How the flush command worked again? I better start digging my wallet for more ram... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maddmatt 1 Posted October 29, 2007 1gig corsair 800mhz ddr2 Need more than 1 gig... That's not true. Texture detail on normal is fine with 1 gig in my experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Tea 0 Posted October 29, 2007 That may be the truth, but you will see a big difference with 2GB of RAM. Not that it should work that bad at all with that videocard, since i use the same card with much better performance. The question is, what OS SpaceReverend used to play ArmA. The "Flush" command: Hold "Shift" and press "-" on the numpad, than type "flush". I think you need to press "Enter" after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpaceReverend 0 Posted October 29, 2007 My os is Xp, and the flush command did not work. I tried both shifts but nothing.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How the flush command worked again? I better start digging my wallet for more ram... well then you will need a much better videocard. The whole LCD instead of a CRT is coming back to bite us( i have a 1600/1200 21in). All the new games are very taxing. and your 7600 will not even play them at your current native res... i wish my old Sony Trni 21in crt didnt break... The flush command works, keep trying.

Commando84 0 Posted October 29, 2007 i get good performance with a 7600 geforce silent card. Though i got 2 gigs of ram, maybe you need more ram? your processor is almost like mine just 2-300 mghz better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpaceReverend 0 Posted October 29, 2007 lush is not working, tried 1.5 hours. Should it bring out some console where to write FLUSH? I've tried every goddamn key in my keyboard, not working. I switched the aa off and it helped, when i swithced it back on, 5 minutes and swapping started again freezing all. All my other games like Bioshock, Bf2142 etc worked like a dream in full grapichs..why not arma? just tried also arma mark, results were expected. 10fps and less..not much. First score was 1111,something and second score was much less 948,879 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Puma- 2 Posted October 29, 2007 press shit then minus and type flush. theres no console. If turning AA off helps then u should keep it off. with that GFX u really cant have that much eyecandy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boomboomer 0 Posted October 29, 2007 press shit then minus and type flush. theres no console. If turning AA off helps then u should keep it off. with that GFX u really cant have that much eyecandy Lol - u sure u wanna press that Puma? Press and hold the left shift key, while still holding it tap the numberpad minus (-) key then let go all buttons then spell out f l u s h on the keyboard. The screen should freeze and 'please wait' appears in the corner then the screen lights up again. I also used to get a similar issue with my 8800 card but the latest Nvida drivers solved it - are your Gcard drivers fully upto date? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
