 |
|
Here is my 64 bit laptop stats:
512MB Ram
AMD 3200+ Athlon 64
GForce 440 4 Go w/ 64 Mb dedicated
My desktop stats:
752Mb Ram
Amd 1.4Ghz Athlon
ATI Radeon 9200SE w/ 128Mb
For some reason, my laptop is about 30 or so FPS LOWER than my desktop with all the settings down... and my desktop settings slightly turned up.
Is there something I can do? Is this tweakable?
(BTW - the game is Enemy Territory)

You have 2 generations of seperation between your video cards there, so I think you're actually doing pretty well....unless you're wondering why your desktop isn't doing better?

he's talking about his ATI being faster than his Nvidia... and not vice versa

Just because you CPU is a 64-bit one, doesn't automatically make everything run faster. Esp when the graphics card is not up to par.

So is there any hope of getting this thing to run any faster FPS-wise? Any tweaks at all?

Based on how everybody's avoiding answering this question, I'd have to say no. =/
