My friend just purchased a new vid card (ATI 9800 Pro) and he seems to be experiecing low framrates, around 20-40 .just wondering if thats normal or there might be a problem with his configuration. (This has only been tested in World Of Warcraft although)

Re: Low Framrates :(
Hes running a Intel 2.6Ghz with 1G 3200DDR and plays the game on high settings. Thats all I know.
Also the framerates seem to drop significantly lower when he enters crowded areas of the game, not sure if the connection speed would affect that or not just wanted to make sure.

Re: Low Framrates :(
Worlds of warcraft can run on a pentium 3... Currently with my rig in ironforge looking at about 60 people, my fps drops to about 30-50.
AMD 64 3200+ (O/C to 2.4ghz)
ATI Radeon 9800 256mb
Kingston Original 512mb ddr x2
Asus K8V Deluxe Mobo
500W Thermaltake P.S.U.
I posted before about this video card, and the thing that I was told is it's what is holding my system back from it's full potential.
Download AVITool, search for it on http://www.google.com Increase the memory by 10, and the other one by 5. That's all I do, even so I don't anymore because well, I don't have another 200-300-400 dollars to fork on a video card. But that's just the start to o/c your vid card, your supposed to be able to at least increase memory by about 40 or so, and the other one by about 30.
I also have all my video options off, I don't use any of the special effects. The only one that's ticked is the one that says it maximizes performence.
