I dont know if this is happening while you're installing but if you are downloading something while trying to install a demo it will SEVERELY slow down the times for both, cant really write 2 things on two different parts of a hard drive at the same time.
As for download times, I get faster...
Its an Antec smartpower 2.0 450watt
The problem also occurred on a generic 420watt psp
The problem still occurs with 2 sticks of 512mb we tried or the 2 sticks of 1gb he is currently using. (and the problem hasn't occured with the 512 sticks in a different computer).
And the mobo is...
cant be an airflow problem cause its not in a case :)
(i know that cause I'm his brother)
His max cpu temps are like 36c
and his GPU barely gets warm to the touch
k this is what ive tried so far.
I installed his graphics card the (7950gt) into my computer which is a Athlon x2 3600, and in my comp his card gets >50fps on max and 2x AA on.
So its not the graphics card.
So i think its either his CPU, Mobo, or software.
I disabled EAX and the sound is...
Hi
My bro is running:
Athlon 64 3000+ (939)
2gb Corsair value ram
Antec Smart power 2.0 450watt PSP
and a BFG 7950gt OC (256mb)
And in battlefield 2142 with settings:
1024 x 768
settings max
Dynamic light off
AA off
AF off
He is only getting 15-25 fps
We both feel that...
Radeon x1950pro can be had for as cheep as $125 at newegg.com
Edit: the 7950gt will not blow away the x1950pro in bf2, it will be <5fps difference
or the x1950xt can be had for $179 after rebate. Both of those will play BF2 with a good amount of eyecandy.
