Unstable fps on HD 4650

<< < (2/7) > >>

[MAF]Snoopy:
Check anti aliasing settings

MadMax:
i set everything lowst possible
btw fps drops happen only in SA
Tomb Raider Underworld or TDU2 works lot better than on my old card

[AK47]Tommy_Vicious:
Are you on windows xp or 7?

A friend of mine had the  same card and the same problem: we tried everything but it seems like old radeon cards (like 3xxx -4xxx series) have unstable fps on DirectX 9 games on win7. when he switched back to xp , his fps went normal.

MadMax:
i got XP, 32bit
strange it that fps drops happen in SA only, newer games are working lot better than on 8600GT

[LSR]Jalicno:
ATI catalyst never was friendly to this game i could honestly say that cause since 2005 i have played on X1650,2600XT,HD3650,HD4850 and last 3 years HD6850.
Since 9.1 version till updated 13.x they didn't made much progress,ironically some options in Catalyst Center were disabled or made game total unplayedable...with low FPS,Shader or Vertical sync problems

As you said all other games runs smooth instead of just GTA:SA

On many webpages you can find similar posts to this one

Solution exist but you must be patient to find what you looking for.

Easiest way is to completely uninstall Catalyst Control Center and ATI drivers in general and give try to Omega Drivers, they run fine without MS Framework so it will use less resources on your PC which result better performance and probably decent FPS on this game.  (I am not 100% sure there is support for your model cause website has been down in moment when i checked support list)

Or if you want play with CCC drivers try some older version as 9.8, 10.3, 11.12 or some what match with your model of card...12.6 is latest designed for 4xxx series

Its been long time ago since i sold my 4850
