What gamer only has a 120 GB SSD and no other hard drive...?

a gamer who only plays 3-4 games on his PC at a time... i have other HDDs, i just refuse to install programs on a separate HDD (completely defeats the purpose of an SSD). 25 gigs is about 3 games...

Just started it up today and wow, it's terrible. The texture loading and popping is insane, and I'm running a i5-750 with a 5850. Not to mention the textures look bad, I'll be waiting for the hi res texture pack before I play it.

I doubt a 25 GB game doesn't already come with insanely high textures already.

Who doesn't have that these days?

It's not always about having enough space. I personally thought that was ridiculous as there's no reason for a little single player shooter, especially one that can be finished in 10 hours or less, to need 20-25GB.

Yea read couple min ago that there was an ATI performance beta driver done last night, but also reading some people say not to use it ( read makes it worse) and wait for others out later today.

Reading the forums and what systems people are posting their setups, and seing more ATI cards with the popins then anything, but could just be a popularity thing on why seing more ATI cards with issues compared to people that arent having problems with Nvidia or using the BF3 drivers

I found that (on AMD) forcing VSync and AA/AF via the Cat panel seems to help until the official driver hits later today. Mine went from the prior video to similar results as this:

"Its an iD game, if you are looking anywhere but straight ahead you're playing it wrong" :)

Doesn't really helps. Only made it worse for me.

    • Gf needed a new Surface and was looking at a Surface Laptop because of the Snapdragon. Seeing as it was a two year old chip she just decided to get a Lenovo Yoga 2 in 1 instead. Personally this Surface Ultra Cassis reminds me a bit of Razor. It would be interesting if it could handle proper gaming and be 17 inch.
    • No idea, frankly, I'm not into minimum requirements gaming, but it would be an interesting test to find out. Also, I just have to point out that it wasn't my intention to downplay the performance of DXVK on Linux or Linux gaming in general (despite my own experience being a bit of a mixed bag). I just thought it would be good to point out that DXVK is not Linux exclusive and that you can benefit from using it even in Windows.
    • Fastfetch 2.64 released bringing new logos and other improvements by David Uzondu Fastfetch, the popular command-line system information tool that developers created as a fast alternative to the classic Neofetch utility, has updated its codebase to version 2.64, bringing experimental scripting power, streamlined compilation options, a smarter logo renderer, and Codec module support. As noted earlier, Fastfetch can now detect hardware-accelerated video codecs across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android through this new Codec module. On Linux and BSD, the utility uses VA-API by default, with a fallback to VDPAU on Nvidia hardware if compiled with libva and libvdpau. Windows users get D3D12VA on Windows 11 or D3D11VA with Media Foundation Transforms on older systems, while macOS relies on VideoToolbox and Android utilizes AMediaCodec. You can manually toggle Vulkan Video via the config file, and the program will report both encoders and decoders unless configured otherwise. Logo support for Quasar, Origami, Origami_small, NixOS2, and BerserkArch also landed in this release. BerserkArch, if you have never heard of it, is a specialized Arch Linux derivative that targets security researchers and power users. This distro comes with an offensive security tool manager, simply called berserk, which allows users to install complex hacking toolkits with single terminal commands. Moving on, Fastfetch now has experimental scripting options for custom formats using Lua or QuickJS. The Lua integration supports versions 5.3 through 5.5, sharing a single interpreter instance across all modules so you can store variables globally. T Alternatively, if you prefer JavaScript, you can use QuickJS-ng version 0.15.0 or newer to evaluate your custom formats with the qjs: prefix. Other changes that version 2.64 brings include native CMake compilation flags to disable specific modules to shrink the final binary size. Users can delete unwanted ASCII logo files directly from the source directory before building to save additional space. The format engine now boasts ANSI-escape awareness, meaning you can center text with the new vertical bar specifier without breaking colored outputs. Haiku users receive preliminary support for boot manager, window manager theme, screen brightness, and other basic properties. Finally, the Linux edition now extracts desktop wallpaper and theme details from the modern COSMIC desktop environment.
