Title: Radeon X1300 Hardware Lag
Post by: Fyre on April 27, 2007, 06:38:04 PM: Basically, I lag like crazy. Not losing packets or anything, so I'm certain it's my video card. It also takes about 3 seconds to tab into/out of DP. New drivers are installed, all that good stuff. I honestly have no idea why the hardware lag is this bad. It lags and actually looks like I'm holding the +strafe key and moving. Any ideas anyone? Thanks.

This is what one of my friends runs who seems to have his newer ATI card working good with kinda intense games like CS:S and F.E.A.R.

(06:33:19 PM) CaBo0sE: then i use Ati Tray Tools to change any settings
(06:33:34 PM) CaBo0sE: i dont use CCC or the Control panel from ATI
(06:33:44 PM) CaBo0sE: they suck...until AMD fixes them...

Just because it isn't packet loss doesn't mean that it's video card, it could be other things on your PC, make sure nothing is hogging your CPU.

Post by: Fyre on April 27, 2007, 10:27:14 PM: XP. It's the newest drivers, and I know it's the video card, because I never had this problem with my Intel Onboard Graphics Controller.

Just asking to make sure.

Post by: SkateR on April 28, 2007, 11:51:56 PM: It didn't make it worse. It was basically the same. I could just run games on higher settings, but even on low settings fps didnt change.
