AMD probs with N3?

by PhilJ » Fri, 17 Sep 1999 04:00:00

Guys, I'm only able to get 10-12 fps with an AMD-K-2/366, 64 megs, 24x, 16
meg banshee.  Only 10-12 fps, I've heard P2 233's getting 25. Is the chip
shit for N3? Or am I missing something? I've heard of others having probs
with fps with the AMD. Anyone else?

10-12 fps?  Is that with all the goodies on?  Maybe you should turn
off some of the graphics options.
What resolution is the game run at?  Try running the game at a lower
resolution.
Do you have a lot of programs running in the background?  Turn them
off.  What soundcard do you have?  If you have older soundcards,
playing sounds at 16bit probably may tax the CPU a bit too much.

I have an AMD K6-2/333, 128mb ram, SBLive Value, and a Canopus Pure3d
(V1).  I get about 25+ fps, with everything turn on, and no traffic.
In traffic, my guess is that it drops to about 20 or so fps.  I'm sure
if I have a better card, I'll get better framerate.

Are you using directx input for joystick oy Papy input?

If it's Papy input, you have choose, they wrote in the readme.txt file, that
Papy input
was only for Intel Processor and other processor was getting bad result !!!!

He was asking about "AMD" not Pentium.
