Not sure if it is my compy or not... | Forums

In single player I can never get a good fps, if I do it just skips. I have:

AMD Athlon XP 2400+ ~2ghz
Geforce6600gt
512mb RAM (133mhz)

I am guessing that it is my RAM speed. I know someone who has a worse video card than I, same amount of RAM, and the same exact processor and their game runs just fine.

133 MHz RAM!!!??? Ive never heard of that. Since you described the problem as skipping, I'd assume it is your RAM. I have the same video card as you, similar processor, but i have 1 GB of 333 MHz RAM and single player runs fine.

i have the game running on 512Mb of 133MHz RAM and it is running fine. i would guess it is not the hardware but maybe the software. what operating system do you have? is it a pre-built compy like Dell or HP or something you built? If it is prebuilt you might want to see what applications you have running at startup and close the things you arn't using.

Nope, my brother built this computer about a year ago. I have tried turning off norton and microsoft's antispyware which are the only other programs that would affect it. I have no idea what it could be then...

I still think it is your memory speed. Get some PC 2700 or PC3200. That will let match the bus speed for your processor and make your whole system more efficient.

Hmm, I tried SP again today. It runs fine everything high, 1024x768, and sm3.0 on. But when I stand up and move or run, or when I climb a ladder or jump up a ledge, it stutters. It does this with everything off and low and everything on and high....

*Ahem* Did you not see my reply a couple posts ago. It stutters with everything OFF also. Meaning that I have tried it with the shadows/lighting off.

Almost every other game runs fine with everything on.
