HUGE frame dips

Recommended Posts

so in the first mission, harvest red, the part in the forest, my machine EATS up, i get like 45 fps the entire time.

Once i get into the city, i begin to get HUGE frame dips, ranging from 10-45 fps

does anyone know how i can smooth that out??

i am running a gtx 275 and have tried turning physx off, vsync off, max rendered frames to 8, turned hyperthreading off

do i just have to deal with this?

any help would be AWESOME, or even advice, i dont know maybe this is the worst part of the whole game fps wise?

i7 920 @ 3.8

gtx 275

gigabyte ud4p mobo

6 gb OCZ Platinum 7-7-7-24 1600 mhz

I got this in Win 7 64 as well and nothing I did got rid of it. It seems to be assosciated with CPU usage. Turning off HT helped but did not alleviate it (and I see you've done that).

I play on XP64 for the moment. Hopefully, the patch will do something about it.

don`t know if it will help you but it did for me

go into your msconfig and change the number of processor`s on startup to two (or three or four ,wich ever works best )

Yeah Eth tested this out on a few different machine setups.

XP>Win7>Vista

(I also have the same issues as you, turning Object detail and terrain detail down for that mission helped a tad)
