Actually I said thank you to everyone and that it was working several posts ago, you missed that.
Also I did NOT ignore it. I wanted to run a baseline first. I work full time, go to grad school, and am fixing up a house to move in to. (Not to mention the gym and a relationship to maintain) So...
I have Metro LL and the Batman game. Metro seems to be working well. I don't have that much time to game. I do it at night after my brain fry's from studying.
Goatsecks, thanks. :)
I wanted to do a clean install of Windows 7 pro to decrease the chance for a software or driver bug. Then...
I was hoping a 970GTX would solve the issue.
Maybe get something on Black Friday sales.
Though about a Intel i7 for my board but wont really help since most games aren't set up for multiple thread handling as far as I know. To much cash for to little return.
I used MSI afterburner. I played Metro LL for 10 minutes. Here are as best I can say the results. MSI lists reading for all cores of CPU.
CPU set to automatic "turbo mode" where it can go from 3.4 Ghz to approx 3.8 / 4 Ghz
No extra over clocking, card is Sapphire Tri-x factory OC, factory...
I will have to do this over the weekend at some point. Will need to set up a second screen with a spare LCD monitor I have. Then will monitor with MSI afterburner.
Just played the game for a few minutes and the FPS didn't drop below 52. Will try again to get it warmed up.
All the monsters were...
No need to go getting bent out of shape and making baseless accusations.
I did turn off PhysX in Metro LL. It made no difference in FPS.
In regards to looking up the Virtu MVP deal, nothing wrong with looking something up and having a conversation about it. Have you ever been on a team where...
Going to do that tonight.
I have made a check list with all suggestions from easy to hard. Someone also said to uninstall Virtu MVP but I couldn't find anything on the net about it hurting. I do have it "off". Tried it "on" and did not make a difference.
I forgot to post this in last post...
I loaded CPUZ and see that my Ivy bridge CPU core speed at rest is 1599 Ghz then when I open something it goes up to 4Ghz. I know my motherboard is set for minimum speed 1500 GHz Max 4Ghx (Turbo Mode). I guess that eliminates CPU at normal temp?
Multiplier: 16
Bus Speed: 99.98 MHz (I thought...
Antec Earthwatts Model EA-650, 650 Watts Max
I tried activating the Lucid Virtu MVP which in addition to my graphics card can use the integrated Intel 4000 chip to off load some work. It didn't seem to help.
ok I will check by disabling the PhysX.
Also then the other stuff with a second monitor.
Steam installed PhysX on my computer so I could play PhysX game. I downloaded the latest and installed it to see if it helped. The FPS did go up so now in the opening I get 30-56 but in action scenes it...
I down loaded MSI after burner. How do I view the MSI console while playing the game? (I assume I monitor while playing?)
Should I use MSI afterburn to OC my card or AMD software?
Thank you
Oops. Yes the TV/LCD-LED is 1080. Max 1920x1080
Yes, and thank you, something is wrong. I was wondering for sure.
I need to figure this out. It would be embarrassing to take my rig into a local computer shop to get tweaked. lol
How do I check for CPU throttling? I know I can look at CPU...
I will try those solutions. I found my RAM at 1333 speed for some reason. I set it to 1600. I also overclocked my card a little with the AMD Catalyst overdrive.
I am not sure how to check if the CPU is throttling down while I am actually playing a game. FPS seem up a little but certainly...
I am playing Metro Last Light through Steam. (Also others but none stutter like this game) It was getting slow, stuttering, so I turned on the FPS tool and found my FPS drop down to lowest 8-12 but high as 250 at other times. I am not talking about loading times. I am talking about when the map...
So basically your are saying that woman should NOT be a responsible adult? You are as well saying she should NOT be held morally and legally responsible for her action, simple because she is a woman?
One thing is certain if she is in another similar situation maybe she will behave rationally...
I guess women shouldn't serve in the military either and definitely not in a combat situation? I guess they shouldn't be chief executive officers or run multimillion-dollar national companies and certainly they shouldn't be doing mixed martial arts?
Last time I saw a woman's mixed martial arts...
I could have a bad eye for reviewing video but it certainly looks like she was the aggressor, first. She 1) turned around to instigate trouble 2) placed her arm against him 3) raised her fist 4) punched him. Under the stand your ground law, if someone perceives a threat in which in their...
I somewhat agree with the spirit of this statement.
Basically what you see here is feminazi theory applied. The theory says we get everything equal, except when it comes to whatever we do not want it to apply to! The demand for equality should include that if a woman step's up to the plate...

Is there something I am missing?
Why should he be the only one to go to jail?
It is OK for a woman to have no personal responsibility and is protected from the consequences of her...
I have a Rosewill Challenger mid-tower gaming case. The motherboard is a asrock z75 pro3 ivybridge
Just bought a Radeon R9 290 video card, Sapphire Tri-x that won't fit unless I break out a hacksaw to the case.
Do I need a full tower?
If not what mid tower will hold it?
I need to hold a...
I am not a heavy gamer, more casual gamer. That said I really dislike that standard settings on a game cause it to slow down so much to be unplayable. Also I do not like to upgrade much and usually wait for a really hot card, with good performance to drop in price to make it attractive. Also...
I was going to order today and I see the XfX card price went up. Even the sapphire card promo card expired. I did not see anywhere that the XFX card deal was going to end in a few days.
I wont pay more...will just wait until it goes on sale again. (cheap) I cant believe that card went up $50...
System:
Intel Ivy bridge i5 unlocked cpu
16GB 1600 RAM
256GB SSD OS drive
1Tb 7200 RPM game drive
Radeon 2Gb 6950 (Only one slot for a video card, budget asrock board)
Windows 7 Pro
I was playing, Metro: Last Night in a dark scene when a bunch of enemies came at me the system slowed down...
I guess I will save up a little money and buy a 500GB-1TB SSD drive. The map loading time is the main issue.
I will have to figue out a way to copy everything over so I do not blow up my steam folder/gaming drive.
I like to upgrade now in increments and not wait until everything is old as dirt. I used to wait but I make a little more money now. I also used to be a NVIDIA only guy until the Radeon 69502GB came along. The price/performance was just to good to pass up or buy anything else at the that time...
I understand it may be a silly question as one person stated. I realize it is getting "long in tooth" amd may struggle with modern games at max resolution. I play first person shooters and not at max setting. I have a 24/25 inch HD LCD/LED screen.
I have thought of upgrading and considering the...
I have a Intel i5 unlocked CPU IVY bridge, 16GB of g-skill ram, a 240Gb SSD drive for OS, several 1TB 7200RPM drives with one just for games/steam, and lastly the video card a Radeon 6950 2 GB factory over clocked.
If I am to upgrade my system I assume the video card is the first thing I...
