Help with increasing FPS

[PXYC]

Actually, it would run better with the integrated card, because Ace of Spades doesn't use your GPU at all.

you probably have Vsync on globally. turn it off.


Also if you are using a HDTV try 1024x768 resolution. It will run at 60HZ so you should get 60 FPS and the frame limiter should go full speed. If you are using 800x600 your graphics card might not support it, and it is capping the FPS at the refresh rate (most HDTV is 22HZ for that resolution)... this would explaine your low FPS, especially if it stays maxed at 22fps!!

i looked up the Lenovo IdeaPad G575GC, seems to be a laptop, and it's fairly new...
I'm guessing you're running Win 7. try disabling Aero (windows) it might improve performance.
if ATI has a graphics control panel, make sure client.exe (ace of spades) is listed as 3D application- some graphics cards, like mine, thinks ace of spades is a 2D app, such as MS Word, and won't use 100% power.

I am using Best Performance with Windows Default (better than just disabling Aero) and i do have control panel ATI but i can't find 3D applications??

How can i turn my Vsync off? And when i tried that resolution i got 8-10 max fps...

<@bcoolface> yeah, should run much faster on XP now too, with a rewritten fontengine
That's the next version. I'm hoping that you have XP so this is fixed.

Try this do disable Vsync


You need to be in Classic view to follow:

Control Panel> Display Properties> Settings[TAB]> Advanced> [your card][TAB]>Performance and Quality Settings> Select Vertical Synch under settings and untick apllication controlled, move slider to off.

If VSync is on frame rate will not exceed monitor refresh rate.

Yes the setting say "its off" but it will on if you play the game.... Try to setting the vsync totally off..... I already try it and it makes big difference..... I'm using amd c-60
