My FPS is running about 20 -35, which is a problem. I am wondering if I pick up a top of the line graphics card I can improve this. I'm currently running an NVIDIA nForce. I have an AMD Athlon 3200 chip. 448 RAM Any thoughts? And what card should I get, if any? Thanks, Shred This post has been edited by Shred and Burn: 02/13/07 6:45pm

I changed my video mode to the 640 x 480 and I was able to get up to 100 FPS, but its probably costing me some graphics. Oh well, it will get me by until I figure out what I need and get to the store.

Here's a good chart to compare performance at the medium resolution and no AA which is probably what you want for gaming: http://www23.tomshardware.com/graphics.htm...1&chart=196 Old Man Mike
