Can somone post the best ways to increase your FPS cuz i get 10-20 fps on a 3.0ghz 1gb ram 128 mb vdcard , in tfc and those are 3 times tfc's requierments

something is really wrong because I get 60 and I have a pci card lol. update your drivers directx9.0b is out just tink with your video settings in tfc dont use the software thats s**t other than that I'm not sure

In console ... fps_max 100 ... that should do the trick.

K tried all that still getting 10-20 fps is thier any options i should switch in my opengl properties ?

looks like its integrated video, not a video card, that will always suxor more.
www.guru3d.com to get tweaked drivers.

OH thats integrated!?! max fps with my integrated is 30 fps GL!

Integrated video shares memory with the system ram...check how much is alocated to the video card itself. On my laptop...I can specify the amount of system memory to be used by the graphics card. You should have a similar setting.

So should I
Stay with the intergrated 128mb video
or
Change to a nVIDIA mx 400/400 64mb Graphics Card
until I save up enought for a 100x better new vidcard?

Isnt integrated a max of 8mb? but try it integrated is teh suxs

integrated vid on Liger0 (shittle sv24, p3@733, 512MB pc133 ram) can go up to 16MB, but its a s3 savage4 and gets no more than 30fps MAX if ever.
i did have a pci radeon 7000 w/ 64MB(sdr) and still didnt get much better.
now i think it was mostly a driver problem.
(((it had lockup problems too, google "capacitor plague")))

Start with my suggestion...if that doesn't work, consider trying the graphics card you mentioned. It should only take about 15 minutes to install it...drivers and all.

i use an integrated just fine. do what chips said and try filtering how much memory is used by the card.
