And that makes SSE the most expensive game, considering all the upgrading and investing everyone did in new machines

NAUTIS?

Tell me about it

I don't think I can beat that, but I do have rubbish quality $:-\$
When they say R.R.P. Of 39 Euros they should put in small print:
*90% of customers will need to add 400â‚¬ ontop for a new computer

Not really, the minimun specs clearly stated a videocard with 256 mb dedicated memory. If you try to run it with a 32 mb memory video card, you can't really blame the dev's. Even Stevie Wonder could have seen that it isn't going to work.

Ballast, with your 17 Frame rate, what are the graphics quality set at?

Ballast · « **Reply #9457 on:** September 06, 2010, 22:20:21 »

Full settings

Even I am a bit surprised by the fps on SSE, i really thought it would be low on my PC.

Vessel: Protector
Enviroment: New York
Weather: Gentle breeze

Fps was 30 to 40 in Medium settings.

I also tried in High settings (same vessel, environment & weather) which gave me 23-49 fps, however the vessel was a bit 'jerky' on High settings.

I don't use overlocking or anything like that

No it's not their fault

But so far that's how the records gone.

SS08 didn't work so I had to buy a new laptop, now SSE doesn't work

Oh well!

If it's any consolation to you, I had to upgrade my PC for SSE - new motherboard, new CPU, and new RAM chips (I couldn't use the ones in my old motherboard cos they were DDR2 and my new motherboard only takes DDR3)

Cost me a wee fortune but it was worthwhile.

I bought my graphic card online from a PC shop, and I added it to my computer.

My computer was custom made, that's why you can't see the manufacturer's name and model.

Matthew Brown · « **Reply #9469 on:** September 07, 2010, 08:39:48 »

No mines a laptop Gibby

So that's why I can't upgrade the card $:-\$
It's physically built in

I suppose that's the thing really, the perennial laptop problem, component upgrades.
