deeselcyde Posted September 28, 2005 Posted September 28, 2005 System Specs: DFI SLI-DR AMD 3800+ venice (oc to 2700MHZ) evga 7800 gt 2 gigs (4x512mb) Patriot pc4800 Turtle Beach "Santa Cruz" sound card 74 gig raptor I just got the 7800 gt. I have been experiencing stuttering problems, particularly in Battlefield 2. The gameplay is very jittert. I am using Nvidias Latest drivers. I cant figure out the problem. I am running Battlefield 2 in 1152x864@75 Hertz everything on high. From what i read this graphics card should eat up those settings. I would appreciate the help. deeselcyde Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

THunDA Posted September 28, 2005 Posted September 28, 2005 You say that you just got the 7800.. Which card did you have before ? Did you do either a OS reinstall or a good cleaning of old drivers using driver cleaner.. ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlienKing Posted September 28, 2005 Posted September 28, 2005 It could be a swapping issue. If the new driver version doesn't work, try disabling your swap file temporarily. With 2 gig of RAM, it should be ok. Don't try doing this with 1 gig, or BF2 will crash. Go into the system properties, advanced, performance (settings button), advanced, virtual memory (change button), select no paging file, click the set button, click OK, then restart your computer.

I would appreciate the help. deeselcyde I thought the same thing, whacked everything up to full, but even with my card the game had what I can only describe as "micro pauses". Turns out you still can't have Texture Quality set to "high" (<- As this is what 2Gb of RAM is needed for). I simply set that to "Medium" and its silky smooth again!

deeselcyde Posted September 28, 2005 Posted September 28, 2005 well i tried everything you guys are telling me, it didnt make it worse, but not completely better, now that i look at it closely, it happens when i free-look with my mouse, its like a ripple that goes across the middle of the screen, but yes like firegod said there are micropauses with it, but the ripple is the main thing. i have af set to 16x and aa set to 4x if that helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the GTX card, I only run x8! Do you have the Transparency AA turned on or off? Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
