FFX fps problems

dnlstffrd · December 12th, 2006, 23:35

I know this is kinda redundant, but my problem is a bit different. Instead of running 30 fps, which I could tolerate, I am running at 9-12 fps. I have bilinear turned off, and everything set the way that people who run it fine are running it. My specs are:

Pentium 4 2.66 GHz
nVidia 6800 LE
1 GB RAM

Is your P4 HT?
If it is turn on MTGS from CPU menu.

That's all you can get with your specifications. Try upgrading them. My suggestion is to get an Intel Core 2 Duo / Athlon 64 X2 CPU and a GeForce 7600 GT graphic card.

That's what I was afraid of. Unfortunately, as I am a student, it's a little hard for me to earn enough, because getting a new processor would require a new motherboard, so I would have to almost start from scratch.

I have a similar CPU. It should be possible overclock to ~3.0Ghz on stock air cooling without reducing your CPU life significantly. I get ~20-25fps in FFX.

All you need to do is up the CPU multiplier on your motherboard a notch or two.
