Fear video settings

[stefong2]

:) Hi I'm running two 7800 GTs OC'd in SLI and I don't know what kind of Frames per second I should be getting, I'm averaging 45 frames per second ( I used the test to see this in the game.) I've got an AMD64 4000 SAndy and 2gigs of RAM. Its weird though because My LCD has a max res of 1280 x 1080 but when I go to the FEAR video settings the highest res available is one below at 1146x1152 or something like that I forget. I don't understand why I don't have the option to go higher in res. Does FEAR only allow the 1146x1152 res for its highest. I find it hard to believe but If someone could give me some info on this and maybe the frames they are getting on fear I'd really appreciate it. :)

It's possible to change it on the startup options under its exe, however I dont know what you have to add. Also 45fps @ all high with that SLi?

Those 2 GTs are no good if your procerssor is at stock speeds. Your processor would be bottleneckign them if you were runnign it at 2.4GHz

go there look for the settings cfg file, open it with notepad, you will see the "ScreenWidth" "1600"

and

"ScreenHeight" "1200"

those are just examples of my res of 1600x1200

you can change the number to 1280x1024 there also.

If you back into the game and change the res though you'll have to reedit the config file to get 1280x1024 again

As far as fram rates are concerned your settings may be a big reason why you are getting 45 average, try to auto detect and see if its better then test higher settings from there, also make sure you have the newest video driver, its apretty demanding game...

Excellant Rattle..
I play mine at 1280x1024, don't want to loose framerates, even with my gigantic screen.. Looks great.

Is it your LCD? What kind is it it? How big?
How bout getting a big LCD to go with those smoking cards?

My screen definitely isn't the problem, its a BenQ 19 inch LCD DVI
