Can any one tell me the frame rate of Gears of War on X3100 or X3500

First off hey everyone, havent been keeping up with this forum mostly because I'm no longer using the x3100......whew
Also great to see yesh1683 still maintaining this thread even thought he moved on ages ago.

@ Performance of some games.....CoD 5 same graphics engine as Cod 4 so technically no prob, only trouble is that there were some changes made to the settings of the game engine so at lowest settings there was lag, but fortunatly you can get the Cod 4 .ini files and replace the cod 5 ones with so then there is no lag.

Also for Left4dead....just pretty much same as HL2-ep 2 engine so shouldnt be a prob
Also for Gears of war.....hmmm wouldnt bother.....runs at about 10 fps at lowest settings...i mean lowest really bad so its upto you...in my experience it gave me a BSOD about 1/2 hr play

Now i am planning to upgrade too.

For now Crysis - Warhead is playable @low 800x600 at 20-22 FPS.
Also Rise of the Argonauts working good too.

Windows 7 has inbuilt graphics drivers which are newer than what is available by intel. So dont install graphics drivers in win7. I'm not experiencing any problem with WIn7.

GTA IV is running on 965G, but not playable. FPS are seriuosly low, becoz there arent any good graphics options in GTA 4. The lowest resolution is 800x600 and I cant turn off shadows and lighting effects. Which makes the game unplayable. If any one knows how to turn off shadows and lighting effects in GTA 4 and run the game in 640x480, then plz do tell. If these settings are provided then the game will run ok.

I'm presently playing silent hill homecoming, I'm running it at 640x480. The game is runs fine. But the game wud run even finer if the shadows are removed. In quality option only medium and high are provided. How to make it low? or if anyone knows how to make the game more smoother on intel965, then plz share it here.

Help will be appreciated!

SHH runs well on 800x600, just reduce the no of dynamic lights (a config file is therein the installed directory).

Only at some places where there are lots of dynamic lights, the game stutters a bit. Rest I played it completely on 965. A little bit of advice is to switch off the flash light as it drops the frame rate drastically. Fight enemies without flash light on. :D

And what abt GTA 4? Has anyone played it on 965G. I hav tried running the game but its really slow. If there is any mod or config file change which wud make the game playable, plz send it.

^^sorry, but I deleted the whole game a few weeks back. You send me your config file I will edit some values and give it to you.

GTA 4 cant be played on 965 IMO. Though I havent tested it.
