Hello all!
i have a strange problem. i wonder if it common.
i have a NVIDIA GPU PCIe 6800GT, modded to 6800Ultra, works perfect.
Pentum D 2,8, 1gb RAM, yadayada...
strange thing happening is, that while playing the performance is drasticly falling.
when i started gaming i got around 60fps without problem with 1600*1200 resolution, everything on max.
not so much time after i noticed my performance degradated. first i lowered resouluton to 1280*1024 (my active resolution now), than i lowered AA and even some detail functions to medium.
now, when cities and terraing are becoming more and more populated / animated, the game is hard on lagging. frame rate's jumping from as low as a couple of frames to 20fps.
(depends on viewing angle, zoom and terrain population/details). i get "normal" 85fps only when zooming above the sky. the gameplay is frustrating me and i was wondering if anyone knows the way to helping me out here. i use the latest GPU, sound, chipsets drivers.
i thought it may have to do with the memory gap im getting. while playing i noticed that perfomance usage hardy ever jumps over 40%, memory is really stucked at 95%. i installed some app for auto freeing ram but i cannot really tell, it helps. im using the performance monitor from logitech's g-15 gaming keyboard.
any clues?
i think i have a decent power under the hood for playing the game without such lag?
btw, the game is updated with 1.09 patch.
