What settings do u run games at?


Recommended Posts

For all of you running at 1280x1024: have you ever tried the REAL res of 1280x960?

Yeah, I prefer 1280x960, it has the propper aspect ratio (like 800x600 etc)

I usually run at 1280x960 (32bit) at 85hz. Settings on max apart from FSAA and Anisotropic, which I'll turn up when I get a new CPU. (Old duron 850 with a Geforce4 Ti4200 here)

just wondering, why does everyone have VSync turned off, it just causes you vid card to work harder and get hotter than it needs to. plus is could cause image distortion....

Disabling Vsync allows your video card to render at full speed without having to wait to "sync" with your monitors refresh rate. Sure, you may experience slight tearing, but frame rates will be greatly improved. I always disable it.

The only game I play (UT2003) is played at this setting on my Radeon 9700 pro with 21" Sun Micrososytems Flatscreen CRT:

1600x1200@85Hz@32Bpp

All In-Game Video Options: Highest Level Possible
