online gaming with MSI K8N

Well, I might be going home tonight P4-4Ghz settings. While A64 is very fast setup at 2600 MHz, just cannot keep the frame rate up as the P4 does in BF1942 DC. This is the main game play I have to stay with what keeps me happy there. With the P4 I can play @ 1600x1200 with 4xAA 8xAF 32-bit soft as silk. I thought with vertical walls of the A64 is much better in a game of healthy OC a Betta would equal or moe. This has not proven to be the case. In the configuration above the A64 receives a considerable amount of chop. I tried many different driver packages and the net result is the P4 is faster. Unless we get some input from someone here I'm missing something in my setup.

Hello some day before I was facing similar kind of problem. But I solve this problem. According to me confirm your QoS packet scheduler and put out of action it if it’s allowed. Then go back over and observe what results come out. Did you attempt setting your nic to whichever "optimize used for CPU" or "optimize in support of bandwidth"? Just check these system settings with you. If these are not correct then make changes in it. I am sure this will solve your problem.

Yes, tried both options. As I said before I even install two independent network cards to eliminate the possibility that it was a network problem. The elimination of the resolution to 1024x768 seemed to work well. All indicators seem to point to a limitation of the CPU at this time. I'll do some more tests when I get residence tonight. I'll see if I can hit 2700 MHz if you still studders. It’s coming out. I get my dose of DC and I get the shakes. Play online games late, as the conditions is not just fun.

Hi I was facing similar problems but thanks for your help. Playing Desert Combat in the name of science! For half an hour, with the annoying FPS counter turned on for my setup (described later) with resolution of 1600x1200 (32-bit, 70 MHz), 4x AA and 8X anisotropic filtering enabled (and other quality adjustments resulted primarily from higher settings), I averaged between 85 and 100 FPS. Simply depart down to 85 when I was among a whole bunch of people (at a base or whatever). There were occasional ping spikes, but in reality were only observable in the FPS counter - I could not see the real action game - everything was smooth and clean. I'm using the latest Omega - 02.05.1944. I'm not sure what that translates to the Catalyst drivers.

In fact, the setting was supposed A64 workstation only reserve that also double as a grunt coding. After reading I realized the A64 were beating the P4 much higher Benchi recorded in most games at stock speeds, i.e. A64 3400 P4 3.4 GHz vs. especially due to lower memory latencies given by a memory controller on die suspect. I could not get a satisfactory response from its publication in other forums, so I decided to see for myself. I thought a game 2500/2700 A64 improvement. But it seems not. Its okay, I still go for a backup platform impressive.
