1680*1050 on 22"

 

recently played at a 19*10 resolution on a HDTV and the game looks much better espicially the shadows and less noticeable aliasing. too bad I took a significant FPS hit. it was still playable going 20-30 FPS, but not as enjoyable

1680*1050 Settings are

 

Textures: Medium

Rendering: Highest

 

something like 30 View and Detail Distance.

 

(This way I get a smooth 35 fps with my new quad-core)

 

Vehicles on 68 and Shadows on 7.

1024 x 768 (60 Hz)

 

It's native res with my old 17'' monitor (i was planning to get a new larger one, but i spent money on pc build and it didn't make the budget), so that's ok, considering the resolution, i guess... cool.gif

 

Settings:

Texture Quality: Med

Render Quality: High

View Distance: 30

Detail Distance: 35

Traffic Density: 25

Shadow Density: 2

 

FPS:

most areas: 20 - 30 FPS

more cpu-intensive areas: 15 - 19 FPS

bridges, water, open areas, flying heli: 35 - 60 FPS

interiors: 57 - 60 FPS

 

Specs:

see below

 

I tried 1280 x 960 (60 Hz) to make aliasing look less visible, but I think the game started to crash (within minutes of gameplay) because of that (thanx R* Toronto sarcasm.gifsuicidal.gif), or it was caused an overclock to 2.4 GHz. WTF? dozingoff.gif

Nice resolution for a 19" screen what monitor is it ? I can see why you dont need AA on that

How do you get it running that good?

 

I also have a 7900 GS Go 256 mb.

 

But I run everything at lowest...

 

Further specs: C2D 2.0ghz & 2048mb ram

 

Oh yeah: OT: 800x600, native res is 1920x1200

I run it at 1680x1050 (by using the '800x600'-performance trick with low res reflections: actually looks better, imo.) on my 22" screen.

 

Settings are: 40 view distance, 50 distance detail, medium textures, the rest maxxed out.

Runs decent, but it gets increasingly choppy after having played for a while: oddly enough lowering the resolution doesn't make a difference.

 

 

btw: does anyone know how I can play GTA IV on my secundary monitor (a 1080p LCD TV), what software to use for it? Not that it will run that great, but I'm confident a second patch will fix everything lol.gifsuicidal.gif

Play it in whatever resolution your desktop is set on (i.e the native resolution)

That makes my PC slow.

But play the game at max hertz. Know why? Because VSync will force the game to be faster and it will increase the limit to 72/whatever.

That's what VSync is for.

Around 1200x960

Quad Core 2.4

4 gig ram

GeForce 8600GTS 512

22" Samsung LCD

 

The rain & fog really hamper performance otherwise I would run native 1680x1040

you do know the vast majority of LCD's don't do above 60hz.

 

and it really doesn't force the frame rate any higher at all, infact it can damage your frame rate quite severely.

i play with 800x600 every setting on its lowest and still runs slow

Intel Quad CPU 2.40GHz 2.00GB RAM

Radeon 2600xt HD 512mb

Cant play any higher or the game runs extreemly slow and laggy

With the same config, i play in 1024/768 or 1280/1024 without lags.
