Question regarding framerate and F.E.A.R

[The Dave]

I just bought F.E.A.R. and started playing it, but its really choppy and such. I assume thi is the framerate, but I'm not really sure, as I'm not much of a computer tech knowledgable person.

Is there any way I can better the frame rate (or the situation if its not the frame-rate), cuz right now its not worth playing.

What are your specs for your computer? FEAR is a very demanding game and is tuff to max out everything even with a very nice computer.

ya we need to know what exactly is in your computer when asking these questions.

Just a note for future refernce.

 

[The Dave]

Oh ok, sorry.
I'm not sure how to look up the exact specs on my computer. How do I find this out?

try downloading cpu-z i do not know the link or the site adres may some one who knows it post it for him

 

[lancec2c30]

ok I have something else he could try.
1. go into the start menu and right click on MY COMPUTER
2. click on manage
3. find the file DEVICE MANAGER and click on it.
4. now in this colum find DISPLAY ADAPTERS, double click it and it should tell you what video card you have.
5. Now scroll down the colum some more until you come to proccessers and double click it. This will tell you your CPU.


Give us the Proccesser name and the Video card name (display adapter. Then we can help you further

Ok, I have a NVIDEA GeForce FX 5200.

Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.00 GHz

Hope that helps

 

[lancec2c30]

ya it does, ok for a start do you know how to adjust the graphic or video settings in-game on FEAR?

If so turn all your video/ graphic settings to the lowest ie: anti anilising, texture mode, lighting effects. stuff like that. also you screen resolution, try turing it down a little and see if that helps.

And on the FEAR box their should be something called minimum system requirments compare the proccesser and graphic card info on that to yours and see if your is equal if not better.

 

[lancec2c30]

ok so I looked up the min. sys. req. for it and your computer definetly surpasses them. so if you just turn your graphics down and lower yout in game screen resolution it should quite do it.

Thanks for the help everyone. I appreciate it.
