Quake 3 / Vista
Hello,
I encountered a problem in gaming experience while using Windows Vista
Ulitmate 32bit.
I noticed a framedrop of more then 200 fps, this framedrop can be reduced by
setting the graphics lower.
My default settings on winxp for this game are: 1280x1024 32bit (quality
settings maximum).
On Windows XP Pro i will get over 250 fps. (since no more is allowed, capped
at 250).
On windows Vista Ultimate with exactly the same settings i will get about 50
fps.
Specs:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ (2.20 GHZ)
1023 RAM
Radeon x800 GTO
Question:
1. Is Microsoft aware of this problem?
Since this will not be the only O.S/Game problem yet to come.
2. Am i correct when i say this is not mainly Microsoft but Radeons problem?
Since MS is not responsible for the power a grphxcrd can give.
3. Can i expect this to be fixed within the time to buy new hardware anyways.
Theory meaning: after 2 years everybody is bound to buy new hardware anyways
so why bother fixing it.
-=-=-=
The answers to these questions do mean alot to me, and im sure to many other
people aswell as this will affect all financial and IQ-rated thinking of
getting over xp and start using Vista.
I hope to get an answer soon,
Regards,
Remco Lagendijk
