That Guy Veteran Posted January 9, 2010 Veteran Share Posted January 9, 2010 So I bought Stalker Clear Sky on Steam, installed it, and went to play it today only to find I couldn't play it at highest settings. I could play the original in it's full glory, even with a little AA added, but Clear Sky... well I rarely get above 10 fps lol. I'm running it through Steam too. Here's my rig: Intel Q6600 @ 2.5Ghz 4GB DDR3 RAM (can't remember speeds but don't think they were too bad) 1.5TB Seagate Barracuda GeForce 8800GT 512MB I can play Crysis with better graphics settings than what I would have to play Stalker:CS in to get reasonable framerates, but could it be that my trusty 8800GT has reached the end of it's life, or is it simply a tweak here and there that will remove the lag/stuttering?

Zain Adeel Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 ive heard the game is really badly coded.. so could be that ur card isnt so bad for the game im sure u can find some game updates to fix something because 10 fps is just too too low.. with the highest setting on my gts 250 in crysis at 1024x768 i get 35plus constant.. but then again there are games like GTA4.. damn i hate why they ported it so bad.. so could be the same issue with stalker: CS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I could barely run it at high-ish settings with my Core i7 / 6GB DDR / 4870x2 without massive performance dips and a low average FPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
