Hard Drive:Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3200820AS 200GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0GB/sGraphics Card: GeForce 7950GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI-E x16 KO RAM: CORSAIR XMS2 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) (2 of them)Power Supply: Xclio 450WThen i have 2 combo CD/DVD drives.What should I be expecting from this computer? I play Oblivion and I only get 19-30 FPS! I have AA off, Bloom on, Large textures, full view distance, and other stuff. I experience constant hitching as I play, no matter where I am or what my frame rate is. My friend plays it, and he has about the same settings, and he gets 30 FPS with no hitching (his has an older graphics card and slower processor) My cousin has a comp with parts worse than mine, except for his 2 GeForce 7600 graphics cards, and he gets 80 FPS. I was even running 20 FPS while playing Call of Duty 2!?! I think something is just wrong. I have scanned with Webroot Spyweeper and Avast Antivirus, and have nothing. Other program I run: FRAPS, Daemon tools, Ultramon, ****XP.P.S: I have a monitor running at 1680 x 1050 and one running at 1280 x 1024.New comp not working like it should
Yeah, that seems ususually slow. Have you updated the drivers for your graphics card? Have you updated other drivers and BIOS ever?New comp not working like it should
This is just a guess, but are you sure your graphics card is clocking itself up properly for 3D applications?
I used to get crappy performance from my machine, awful performance spikes etc, since I changed the motherboard its been perfect. But your specs dont seem to have a weak link so its hard to determine exactly where the problem is.
Make sure that none of the nvidia control panel enhancementsetings are activated that could slow you down alot.
I have the Nvidia ForceWare Release 90 version 94.24. Thats the only graphics driver i have found. I dont know how or why i would need to update my motherboard BIOS, i've heard that i should only do it to fix one of its specific problems. One problem with updating my motherboard is when i update a driver, i choose windows xp for the download (i have media center edition) and then the only file it lets me install is the 2k_xp, and i dont know what that is.
2k_xp is fine, it means the drivers work in both Windos 2000 and Windows XP.

[QUOTE=''Scout013'']How do I tell?[/QUOTE]Open your graphics card utility (Rivatuner, ATITool, or whatever), and run 3DMark 06 - you should see your graphics card clocking itself up to meet the load put on it by 3DMark.
Alright, i need to download that and then ill give it a go. I really cant seem to find anything thats working so far. I've reinstalled drivers and stuff. I plugged the second port on my graphics card back into my main monitor, instead of the second one, and it helped increase frame rates, but it still hitched and lagged. It even does this in Battlfield were i get 60 FPS. I'm planning on taking it apart and putting it together with the help of a friend sometime this summer, just to check if its all correct.
So you mean you have the game running on two different screens? Is that it? If so that is alot more to render for the 7950GT even and 8800GTX would show slow down.
the problem here is the large textures in Oblivion... use the medium sized textures and it will fly. i had the same problem with my E6600 and X1950Pro setup.

Alright. I got 3dmark06. I ran a test and submitted the scores, and out of the people who had a similar system as me, i got the slowest ranking. I usually got like, 5 frames per second throughout the test, with 0 at some parts. But yes, i feel something is wrong, because I hear a gurgling sound from my comp every few seconds. I dont know if it is my motherboard? And I dont know if Nvidia control panel can monitor the graphics card like one of you suggested, it just measures the temp. How do i fix it, if it isnt clocking itself properly?
