Nah i checks and there is no blinking disk light. i have the game running on pause and its doing it it goes from 35 FPS to 11 every second really it just fluctuates up and down constantly. Also, i don't know if this will hep in any way but i hear a very faint sounds from my CPU every time the FPS starts coming back up, kinda like that stereotypical computer working sound.

Indeed it is. It can become quite addicting when you start researching the different combinations one can come up with and i seems to grow attached to certain pieces of hardware a bit too much. Only problem is that the lack of money turns the joy into torture.
but anyway i was thinking on buying this one, cheap and seems like a good leap forward

i took a look at the 6770 and it seems like its a bit better than that one but will set me back an additional $25 and that is a substantial amount in my situation.
Oh and i have an MSI 870A-G54 motherboard shown below

Newegg has an XFX-made 6750 that is similar but has GDDR5 instead of DDR3. Part of the problem with the 5570 is it has the same 128-bit DDR3 memory configuration that the 6750 you linked does. GDDR5 is up to 2.5 times faster, and this significantly speeds up things like texture loading.

Only $10 more, but if you cash the rebate, it's $10 less than the card you selected:

That motherboard will take any of the Phenom II CPUs up to 125W. These run as low as $100 for the 955 (Phenom II x4 3.2 GHz), http://www.newegg.co...N82E16819113007

I wonder if you're having some kind of power throttling going on. The CPU itself has nothing that can make noise. But fans changing speed with changes in CPU power can make interesting noises. See if you can disable the "Cool'n'Quiet" feature, and whether that makes a difference.

[Mixtli]

oh snap son that video card is looking really good right now, time to go hunting for change between the couch cushions.
thats processor looks good as well, but how about this one that i found on amazon it seems like its no half bad and its $10 cheaper

http://www.amazon.co...IN%3DB005I2YN80

how do i disable the cool'n'quit?

[Guy N'wah]

The "631" is not compatible. It's Socket FM1 and won't work on a Socket AM3 motherboard.

Watch for clearance-sale prices on Phenom II's, though. AMD is pushing their newer architecture and has left the remaining stock of these CPUs stranded.

The easiest way to disable Cool'n'Quiet is, usually, to go into the Windows power settings and change your power scheme to "Always On". Sometimes it's "Home Office/Desk".

If that doesn't work, there should be a way to disable it in your BIOS. I can't point you to that, because every BIOS is different.

[Mixtli]

do you know of any websites where i can keep a lookout on those clearance sales?

I turned off cool and quite though the bios and it seems to have cleared the problem completely. Dammit its finally gone I'm so freakin excited w00t w00t!! thanks for the info man i really appreciate it!

[Mixtli]

K nevermind it worked fine for about 30 minutes then it started doing it again

Help, does Enhanced edition support non SSE2 CPU's like Athlon xp 2800 ?
Official W2 doesn't. I have wrote to dev tem to add support, so I asking now.
If EE doesn't support please,dev tem, could you compile it with non SSE2?
Thx

I'm sorry, but the answer is still the same as the previous times you've asked this. You really need to upgrade that PC, and there really isn't any likelihood that the game will ever be supported on your system.

Never going to happen. It would be pointless even if they were to do it, because that CPU is far too slow and single-core. Nor can it support a graphics card that can support the game.

You may as well ask for the game to be recompiled for a Sparcstation.

[Licaon_Kter]

what, no Windows2000 support either?

[ShatteredAwe]

So can I ask if my computer can run this bad boy on higher than minimum?

Memory: 12288MB RAM
System Manufacturer: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
System Model: G74Sx
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560M with 3GB Dedicated Memory
Hard Drive: 750GB.

I would say no less than medium settings but more than likely on high with a few settings that are not needed disabled .

[ShatteredAwe]

Thank you sir.

[Abysmal Gaze]

Would my computer run this on Ultra? , Ubersampling disabled off course

Here are my specs:

Intel® Core i3 2100, 3,1Ghz, 3MB
NVIDIA GeForce GTX560 1GB GDDR5
Corsair 4GB DDR3 1600MHz
Samsung 1TB - 7200 RPM - 32MB

What do you think guys?

If you're tolerant of an occasional frame rate hit, and turn Ubersampling, Cinematic DOF, and Motion Blur off, you should be fine.

[ussak]

My computer run witcher 2 with medium settings average 50fps and ultra with average 30fps(at worst 18fps). So is there some settings which i could disable to get better fps without so dramatic graffics change as changing between ultra and medium?

Specs:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 @ 3.16GHz
Memory: 4gb RAM
Graphics Card: AMD 4870x2
Hard Drive: 1000GB
OS: Windows 7 64 bit

[Guy N'wah]

You may actually be limited more by the dual core CPU than by that monster GPU. Usually this game is not CPU-limited, but your configuration might be an exception.

On Ultra, be sure that Ubersampling and Cinematic DOF are disabled. Also disable Motion Blur unless you really like it (I don't).

Set texture memory size to Very Large if you have the 2x1GB version of the 4870x2; try Large if you have the 2x512MB version.

There's a bigger spread between Medium and High than there is between High and Ultra; if you cannot get a satisfactory frame rate on Ultra, settling for High isn't too bad a deal.

[NextLevelTheory]

Hi all,
My PC has the following specs

Processor is an Intel ® Core i3 @ 2.40 Ghz
Graphics card is an "Intel ® HD Graphics (1755MB)
RAM is 4GB.

Can I run TW2?

Many thanks.

It's unlikely that you'll be able to run it at all with that configuration. If you can, it would be at very low settings. An integrated graphics card is really too weak.
