9800GT low fps?

Recommended Posts

I have just upgraded my old 7800 GTX to a Zotac 9800 GT and I havn't really noticed that much of a difference in the FPS, most othere games that I own run sweet now with everything maxed out but not ArmA. I have the latest drivers from Nvidia plus I turned down all the settings to medium because on high I was getting between 25 and 40 FPS on the single player ambush mission. Any help is more than welcome, ty.

System Spec.

Windows XP Pro.

Intel Core 2 Duo 6700 Oced to 3.1 ghz

Zotac 9800 GT 512mb

Asrock 2Core 1333 DVI-2.66G

2 GiG DDR II PC 5300

160 GiG HD

My veiw distance is set to 2000m and my resolution is 1280x1024, I can't play any higher than that because that is the highest res the monitor will allow. I also have Vsnyc forced off in the Nvidia control panel.

Rikabi I have the latest drivers from Nvidia.

Reason is your RAM and/or overcloced graphics... I have 9800GT too with same RAM (means 2GB at 667MHz). Difference is i playing on 1680x1050 with 3000m VD... An i getting nearly same FPS (20-60, well mostly is closer to 20)... If your card is OCed try to setting it to default clocks (600/1500/900). This works for me.... And if that don't work best solution is to buy new RAM, probably 4GB 800MHz CL4 will fit...

PS: Don't expect stable 100FPS or something... This is out of range even for GTX 280 etc...

PS2: Sry for my english, i'm polish wink_o.gif
