Recommended Posts

HIAB: hey what aa/af settings are you using, my friend has about the same setup except he has a 9800pro instead of a 9700 pro, or are you using application preference? i played it at his house and this game is scary.

my card is set for no AA or FSAA aplication prefrence

i might have to format to stop the lockups of the game, installed Dx 9c thinking it would help, made ti worse,

because of that thinking when i had Dx update off the CD in case anythgin we not udpated, it hosed it.

if i format im also removing my audigy 2 card and using the onboard sound (still 5.1 surround, jsut not creative) cause about every other game i have crashes the same way when i enabled EAX or high quality sound. and there is no option in D3 to change sound qual

Game runs like sh*t on my pc.... too bad.

I just converted the 3 CDs to 1 DVD which works fine. I'll save it untill I get a new PC sometime.

Dazzla:

That looks amazing!! Does it run smooth? What resolution/settings are you using and what are your PC specs?

Just curious.

Lol, that screenie was 1600 x 1200 with 8xAF and 4xAA :D ran at around 15fps average :rofl: purely for screenshots purposes :D I actually play at 1280 with 2x AA, I can post a screenie of that if you want.

And how do you get the FPS up?

1280 x 1024 with 2xAA stil looks pretty good, can't really compare to the last setup but it's not bad, very playable framerate as well.

    • Well I've done a grand total of nothing, and it now clocks between 2010mhz and 1995mhz (stock is 1710mhz) and hovers around 80c, warmer than it used to, but tolerable clocks seem to have returned. Thanks for all the advice on this thread. Will review the evidence and make a choice.

    • I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.
