ive recently bought this graphic card.
first thing i did was to install FEAR and tried it out.. in the benchmark test in the game on high settings i got
0% under 25FPS
2% between 25-40fps
98% over 40FPS
with these results i started the game. i thought the game was gonna run smooth as baby ass... but everytime i enter a room or a new scene in the game.. theres stuttering thats prettty annoying. it doesnt matter how much i lower the graphics .. still stuttering in the game... i ve read that theres many having this problem... is it the game, ATI driver or is the graphic card just shit???... other games that also suffers with these problems is halflife 2 source engine... and battlefield 2... i could run FEAR with my old 9800pro 128 without no stuttering... so i dont have a clue on this one... noticed stuttering in halflife 2 also... and same there.. that game was running pretty fine on my old card.

my comp specs are. intel pentium 3,2 1gig ram 430w antec power supply, asus xt850xt PE

Thx in advance for help

i found a way.... it seeems to be the texture resolution that seems to drag down the game in the mudd.. i tried a tip from gamspot tweak... lower testure resolution to minimum.. and then u can set almost everything else to medium-maximum... no softshadow..but 2 anti and 4 aniso.. small stuttering once in a while... but huge difference... test it..
i also have the sound on only eax 2

this game is very badly optimized thats it, u need like 2 X1800 with 512mb to run it with everything maxed & i mean aa & af & it doesn't realy look that super,just wait till PS3 will come out it will kick ass to all new pc gfx & hardware & WILL look SUPERB so save your money for that

Umm, i run FEAR at semi-high settings (Some at maximum, some medium) And it runs pretty smoothly with my setup: P4 2.6 Ghz, 1 gb RAM and a ATi Radeon 9800XT 256 Mb.

try installing the 1.01 Patch, think it includes some engine optimizations.. Dont forget the newest drivers for your graphics cards either..

And for consoles, it wont take long before PS3 will seem outdated, i rarely spend money on consoles because i know i will just go back to gaming on my PC sooner or later Wink

yeap after applying path game looks real bright guess why?cause shadows=off Twisted Evil
next patch will switch txts resolution to minimum but u won't see it cause in-game it will show high Twisted Evil ,so much for patch Razz
about PS3;show me wich driving game is looks close to good compare to GT3,GT4 & that was on PS2 without any aa or af so pliz mAn Rolling Eyes ,don't forget that PS2 is about 10 years old with lousy Geforce 2 or 3 similiar GPU Cool ,can u get same gfx look-a-like in GT4 with X850XT or 7800GTX=NOOOOOOOOO.
here is ome screens for ya


remember lousy PS2, imagine what PS3 can achive Shocked
