Ok, I'm at my bro-in-laws house and he has a 9800pro that is performing very badly. His system is definitely a bottleneck, but it shouldn't be as bad as his performance is. He has pc2100 memory and is at stock 133fsb with a 2400+.
Now, we were playing cs:source last night and when the settings are at 1024x768 with high texture quality and model detail (no aa or af), the framerate dips into the teens sometimes. Now, even with his system, he should not be getting this low of performance. Also, like in the garage in office and other shiny surfaces, he's not getting the gleam off of them like he should. You have to stick your face right up against a shiny surface to start to see the shine from it.
He just reformated before I got here and he said it was performing better before. I've tried 2 or 3 different drivers and I can't figure out what's going on. Any help?
p.s. Halo is the same way, although UT2k4 performs pretty good.
