NFS Most Wanted Slow?!

[Latty05]

hi i have a Radeon 9600 gfx card and i recenly installed need for speed most wanted and i want the graphics to be good but there really slow even on low detail my resolution is 1280x1024 do i need a better gfx card? i know this game is brand new out but is that the reason? i have service pack 2 btw if that makes a diffrence?

yea ofcource u need a better gfx to run it on high setting, but iam sure that ur Radeon 9600 will run NFS most wanted fine if u run it at 640x480 with medium or low detail

 

[Latty05]

can u suggest a good gfx card? preferably not too expensive but better than the one i hav oviously

 

[Latty05]

A 9600 should play it better than 640x480 with medium or low detail,I'm playing @ 800x600 with medium setting's on my 9550se and it play's smooth

i suggest nvidia geforce 6800 GT, 6600 GT or radeon X800 pro if u want to play it at that setting

but for me i always go with nVidia because it supports SM3.0 while ATI doesn't.

and one thing if u run the game with 800x600 with high detail it will look better than runing it on 1280x1024 with medium detail

I have a 9600 and i can run it fine on 1024x768 with medium settings

radeon X800 pro

big no to that.
but a 6800 GS (not GT) is great for the money

6800GS when overclocked anihilates a 6800GT that is overclocked, and for $90 or so less.
