To all those people who get tons of lag, turn down almost all of your settings to low, and some medium. Sacrifice quality for major performance gain. I know if you have a 2000 dollar system you will be reluctant to do so, but i did it and it is very smooth. SF is buggy and gives low framerates, and this is the best way to counter it.

Re: Making SF less laggy
this is obvious.
what everyone is looking for is a way NOT to have to do this.
we are all aware this fixes the problem.
please close/delete your thread. -

SuperTyphoon: We shouldn't have to use work arounds to make the game playable. It's not f-ing acceptable to release the game in such a bad way.

Re: Making SF less laggy
We shouldn't, but DICE doesn't know that and doesnt' care. I don't care about anyone, but it benefits alot. Until we can find something to not have to do this, i am keeping mine the way it is.Comment

Re: Making SF less laggy
My SF runs smooth and I have everything on high with x4AA at 1023x768 and my system is a lot less then most.
my system
Amd 3000+barton
2gigs 3200 DDR duel channel ram
Galaxy Glacier 6800GT 256
2x80 gig Sata Hdd
8x8DVDrw
450 watt enermax PSU
I had some choppyness in BF2 on Darqin Oilfields, but I increased my Apeture size in bios from 128 to 256 and that went away and both BF2 and SF run smooth.Comment

Re: Making SF less laggy
it kinda bugs me that dice gave my system the default level of high. I need to turn it to very medium to make the game playable. Did they even test the game?Comment

Re: Making SF less laggy
Thanks for the insite. Shame it won't work for us. :)Originally posted by phen0m
Alas it's not really DICE's fault. Remember EA now own a large proportion of the shares? They no doubt have nearly all the team working hard on BF3 (Cha-ching! You KNOW you'll buy it.) leaving one or two programmers to work on patches. :/Originally posted by SuperTyphoonComment

How come you have your vid gpu clockspeed set to 370mhz? My 6600GT is set to 579/1006. Works great. Surely your 6800GT supports higher frequencies?Comment

Re: Making SF less laggy
6600GT has a hight clock, but that doesnt mean a whole lot now a days when it comes to videocards.Originally posted by ColonelPanic
the 6800GT has more Pipelines and Shaders, which is what it comes down to now a days.Comment

Re: Making SF less laggy
Ah, ya. Maybe so. But when I overclock my card I get about 20 fps more. Surely doing the same to a 6800GT will improve performance as well. And you say "nowadays" like 6 months ago was oh so long. Fact remains...he seemingly has a better system than me and yet my game seem to runs better.Originally posted by PimpYoComment
