TheWasher Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 And I wanted to spend atleast less then 80$ on a new card to achieve atleast 20FPS.. I've been playing GTA IV for the past 4hours with only like 10fps it's barely playable so annoying! SO i bought a HIS Radeon 4670, 1GB DDR3.... and my cpu is, amd athlon brisbanex2, 5600, 2.9ghz (I can oc it to 3.3ghz) And my card doesn't ship to me until couple days, so im really anxious.. I bought a new PSU too.. So yeah, Do you think i should atleast get 20fps... i mean whatever fps to the human eye is normal? Is it like 17? I just want to play w/o lag... EDIT: I play with everything on L settings too... thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garfield 2 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 30fps should be considered smooth. What card do you have now?b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkey82 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 I we are talking about movies, 20ish FPS will provide for fluid motion, but with games it's considerably higher. 30FPS can be considered the beginning of a "green zone" if it's stable, that is.

DjMiikkii Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 You aint getting any good FPS with that POS, buy a new one. Better yet, your computer is a heap of sh*t. Upgrade it, we are not living in the dark ages anymore. i5's & i7's are cheap. Either way, have you got the latest patch? purchased the game or downloaded it?

Garfield 2 Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 I wouldn't say it's sh*t. With a Radeon HD 4670 he should be even able to play the game on medium details... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your computer IS that bad, you may not think so and you are entitled to your opinion. To the vast majority of even casual users however your computer is bad, very bad in fact.
