If your ATI card is experiencing slow FPS...

Hi guys!

If your ATI card is experiencing slow FPS (Frames Per Second), the solution is to downgrade your drivers. That's right, downgrade! The recent 4.4 driver take away from FPS, especially in the 9000 series, and give graphical issues like the major FPS drops with the 'spawn bubble'. The solution is to uninstall your drivers and install the ATI Catalyst 4.1 drivers!

Also, should you be the proud owner of Knights of the Old Republic, expect major FPS increase with 4.1 as well. :)

Just giving a heads up,

~Ken

Hmmmm....I have version 4.3 installed and my FPS in JA seems OK for the most part. I never updated past 4.3 because I got WinME instead of XP or 2000.
Oh, I also am using a Radeon 9200 128MB.

Wow. Just.... wow. I recently started KOTOR again, and I have a 9800 pro. Before, I didn't turn on any funky stuff like AA because I didn't realize you could do that in game. I really thought something was up with my card when I was playing choppily with graphics turned up all the way. Now, smooth. Veeeeeeeery smooth. Thank you Kenyon!!!! :jj: Gonna go check out even more games to see if it helped.

Don't use it, though I could use some better FPS while playing PlanetSide lol.
