well. i'm starting to lose faith. No matter what drivers I use, it seems that i never gain fps. I updated my mobo drivers, and I still can't get a preformance increase. I'm sure that turning reflect all to reflect world would help loads, but man, I really had high hopes for my system. and reflect world feels..ehh. it feels fake, since like half of the world is gone..i dunno, i'm shaddy about overclocking my cpu, I hear it is a great overclocker, but I have no money for a fan..and my dad would have to pay for it, and he is like "it's not your cpu causing the slowdown!"
anyway..you can see my specs at the bottom, 3dmark scores, ect. in hl2, I get 50-60 fps, but on like the beach, it goes down to 15-30.. and in some other places it will drop down to 40~..
please tell me what else I can do. update my bios? mess with a config? tweak something? i'm sure there are other ways then just shelling out $150 for a new processer.
