Hi, i copy a post of a Thread in another Forum. Its about the Settings from Intel Graphic Cards. If you use this, maybe you have better performance:
actually remembered the GMA option panel earlier in the day but had no way to test it away from my computer... it wasn't big on my mind because I disabled the annoying little icon in the control panel. As far as I can Google, those options do the following: Asynchronous Flip: Disables Vsync (maybe better fps). Not sure if its specifically for OpenGL, but thats what was mentioned on the Intel site. I'll try it. Driver Memory Footprint: Should increase performance if I set this to high, lets drivers have more memory (apparently the GMA too, and I have 3GB of RAM, so shouldn't be a problem) Force FXT1 Texture Compression: Should make textures more distinct. Maybe performance increase... makes textures smaller, but I read that it was mainly for 3DFX cards. Also read that it should be left off for best performance. Force S3TC Texture Compression: Should make textures more distinct. Maybe performance increase... makes textures smaller, but I read that it should be left off for best performance. Might try this. Read more about the two here: http://www.digit-life.com/articles/reviews3tcfxt1/ Anisotropic Filtering: Should be left off for best performance. Makes stuff look better, so thats pretty obvious. Texture Color Depth: Should be left to Desktop Color Depth. Can't think of a reason not to. Flipping Policy:Apparently another OpenGL thing. Leave it at Flip. Triple Buffering: Should be left to Default or Off, can affect input lag. I also noticed the "Power Settings" button in the panel, set the slider THERE to Disable Power Savings. I already had my laptop on High Performance, maybe this will help a little too. Edit: Okay, these settings do appear to make the game run better, anywhere that there isn't smoke or particle effects. Now if only there was a way I could disable/remove those. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "INTEL 9XX Gaming" group.
