Problem with Dreamus 2

[Rubble]

I just got a 8800gts an im geting slow downs around the Dreamus 2 cores. Is anyone else seeing this? I have updated all drivers flashed my bios and all other games I run seem to be working fine including Oblivion which is one of the most taxing games i know of.



By the way this is MudSkipper
and thanks for any help.

Is it like major lag?

I remember reading about getting bad lag when someone went inside a building on a game with the 8800 series but i can't remember what the game was

Yes and i just checked a few more maps and even inside buildings with cores the dreamus maps are the only ones doing this. At least that ive found so far.

If your facing the cores yes the fps drop alot. Sometimes 50% if you aim right for the anteana on top of the building. Its map build.

Just remember this: Dreamus wasn't built to be easy on computers. I think. It was built to be fun, which it is.

Im not talking about droping in half im talking about it going from 140 fps to 5. It dosnt stay at 5 but this is a duelcore 4400 with a new 8800 gts .My old 7900gt didnt have this problem.I dont think anything in UT should slow this set up down. I'm hoping this a driver problem an will be fixed if not im gona take the card back.I have been reading about alot of stutering problems with these cards in difirent games sence I got mine. Most of the games i play with it do great though, but somthings wrong and i cant kill yall at 5 fps lol its hard enough at a 140 fps.

Ok I just found this[ http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=23904&st=0 ] and It is the same problem Im having so at least its not my card.I sure hope they fix it though.

well thats not good since i got the same card as you. and my machine is brand new. literally, hehe, but i haven't installed UT yet so ill let ya know how mine turns out.

Hey rubble, the site you posted has a link to a beta patch for the driver at the near the bottom of the page, like second last post since i looked. check it out and see if it fixes the problem.

Thats a great link. I have the 7900 GS KO I just added to this Vista box and it took alot of tweeking to get it running ok. I would look at trying Vsync on Triple buffering on in the regualr Nivida control panel as well.

Ill try that hide weapon and dynamic lighting off in game as well.
