i know ist been posted several times, and i read through all posts - here and at other places, too - but i really dont understand this joke of a graphics card yet..
first of all, my specs...
hp compaq nx9030 (notebook)
intel M 1.7GHz
512MB DDR 333MHz RAM
.
.
.
and
.
.
.
intel 82852/82855 GM/GME integrated graphics 64MB
my only aim is to achieve best possible performance in CS 1.6 while playing on 1024x768x60 (more does my monitor not support)
what i can get now is 20-40fps while playing, depending on the map, dynamic lights etc., but mostly its around 25-35
since i have a very good connection, this is not a problem at all
my 3d-settings on intel extreme graphics 2:
Asynchronous Flip: ON
Triple Buffering: ON
Flipping Policy: Flip
Depth Buffer Bui Depth: Default
Force S3TC Texture Compression: OFF
Force FXT1 Texture Compression: OFF
Driver Memory Footprint: High
Texture Colour Depth: 32 Bits Per Texel
Anisotropic Filtering: OFF
lowering texture color deph to 16 doesnt make a significant change in CS, except far worse image quality in google earth
i tried with power strip, but theres almost nothing i can change there, since its integrated gfx..
what confuses me a bit is that when i open information in intel extreme 2, it says min gfx memory 32MB, max 64MBm memory in use 7MB. when i start CS and start playing (in spectator mode), this goes up to max. 12MB.... but i actually cannot imagine that it uses only 12MB (5MB mor than for displaying the desktop only) for CS..
when being in CS without playing, just at the interface, the fps is equal to my fps_max (shall i set fps_max to 101 or 60, as my monitors refresh rate is, or a different value?). as soon as i open a window, eg. servers, it looses about 1/4 of the fps - while displaying only one window, without any 3D gfx or any animation!!!
is it possible to get more than max. ~42fps while playing at 1024x768x60? if yes, how???
on my other notebook (compaq nc8000, 1.6Ghz, 512MB RAM), where i have a radeon 9600 64MB, fps NEVER goes below 99fps at 1024x768x60... (vsync off, same as asynchronus flip @ intel gfx on) and the ping is significantly lower than on the nx9030, too, although playing with same configs and on on the same connection (4096/768 with FP)
please help!
