Quote from UncleBenny :

I thought these 512 mb graphics cards were for if you're using high screen resolutions? Is there really a need for it when you're running 1280x1024?

Feel free to tell me that I'm wrong here.

well, it always improves graphics + speed(fps) when displayed on higher resolution screense...however, i feel a 1gb Graphics card is not necessary....but projectors' true displays are only 1280X1024 or something...so it doesn't matter even if it's displaying a few hundred inches

swap the ati for a 8800GT...and thats good

Quote from M16hTy M. :

Hi Folks !

When i play lfs and i have much cars moving on screen, for example at start with about 20 cars, my fps are going down to about 20 fps sometimes. When there is not much going on on screen, i have about 150, sometimes more or lesser.
so what have i to upgrade, to fix this. Is it more about graphics card or the CPU or what else ?
i have a core 2 duo 6600 and a 8800 GTS 640 mb (old one), 2000 gb ram on a stiker exteme mb. Windows XP Pro, SP2.

thx for any help, greetinx, M16hTy M.

try download a new graphics card driver...because you should not be getting 20fps on full grid, also....2000Gb of RAM?

EDIT: You have exact same graphics card....but a better CPU, so you should be getting way more than 90FPS on full grid....

Just try searching for some new nVidia Drivers

Then why did you say you had a screenshot of it? Your wierd.

sorry, i might have mistyped or something

Quote from mcintyrej :

Then why not post the screenshot? You said that you had a screenshot of it. To be honest, I don't belive you one bit that you got such a low time.

Just stop posting, or something.

i got 12S

No honestly i swear on my life i got 16s, i just dont have a screenshot of it.

Quote from mcintyrej :

I rest my case. Harjun just don't lie, whats the point? You've already got a repuation around here for telling fibs, why prove it right even more?

i did get 16 seconds.....its just when i try it on 3.2Ghz now its reaching above 80C on temperature...but atleast at 3Ghz it only goes around75...

So now im back to 2Ghz, and am happy with 1M being calculated in 26-7 seconds

Quote from mcintyrej :

Then prove it! Jesus christ all of these little comments saying that you have done it and thats the time. You even said you have a screenshot.

Prove it. I dare you.

but i'm on my laptop and i'll proove it when i get my Thermalright Ultra Extreme next week...when i don't have to run it over 75 Celcius...its dangerous, i put it on 3.2Ghz...but it went till 80C after it finished the Pi calculations....i dont wanna do it again

Quote from mcintyrej :

I think that shows its a load of crap. Anyway, that 20 second screenshot said 3.0Ghz when you recalculate for speedstep. So i don't see how 200Mhz could possibly = a 4 second drop in calculation time.

BS.

it did....

Quote from DeKo :

Just post the fucking screenshot and stop being a lying showoff prick.

whoa....

Quote from garph :

Just post the screen shot harjun, there is no point of posting a screen shot saying its something its not. You could have saved yourself 10 posts of grief and 10 post I've had to read.

.....on a side note, upped my E6750 to 3.66Ghz.

14.063 seconds @ 3.66Ghz

err...i got a screenshot.

Ordered a new Thermalright Ultra 120 extreme online today, coming next week. Comes with some big momma fan too. Hoping for 3.5-7 on that

whoa....4Ghz!

Quote from mcintyrej :

Did you post the right screenshot? That screenshot shows 20 seconds @ 3Ghz.

theres another one with 16 seconds at 3.2Gz

Quote from JO53PHS :

w00t My frame rate hit 360 FPS...

then mine hits 500!

16S at 3.2Ghz

can you log onto lfs.net ? with the passwords you've tried

Quote from NathanRx-7 :

I'm sick of the people in the Demo servers!
People who wait for you on the long strip to ram you out of control!
The community on the forums is excellent, VERY friendly, very good... But on the servers.. Ohhh thats a different story! I was 1'st, last lap, and then on the long stretch some dude was waiting in the middle, then pushed me into the wall, causing me to spin about 20 times, cause my tyers to completely burn, meaning I can't drive!
I don't think I'm gonna be able to play untill I get S2, because it's a great game... But a minority of them ruin it, and they're on EVERY server!
Has ANYONE got a good Demo server that doesent have sad acts waiting to ram you in?
If not I won't be on LFS for 3 weeks (till I get cash for S2) and it's a shame cus I really enjoy the game...

If anyone knows any, PLEASE tell me...

yes, the [PINK] server, of DFH| servers

Quote from mcintyrej :

Proof? My E2140 @ 3.1Ghz does 20 seconds.

i remember someone saying...playing LFS at 200fps+ is like driving a Porshe around and revving it till the limiter

why not just what a Q6600 in there, and 2 8800 Ultras....then you'll get 400fps...and you won't need to overclock it and, "harjun" it.
