Prey on an X3100? I would of it'd run crap. I hope your results are during proper action sequences.

I get bugs with 2142 on my c2d e6750/ati hd2900xt desktop

If anybody had this game on day of release (i did) you will remember the almighty hash up it was, hence the next BF will be free.

on a side note my x3100 runs bf2 fine, although on the previous drivers it would crash after about 10 mins on bf 1942 (odd as it is an old game)

Prey. Yes. Prey. 18 fps with Core 2 Duo E6600 and G965 with 14.31b beta drivers. I doubt it'll be too much faster now. It was with 800x600 medium.

Unreal optimizes his games too much to conclude properly.

There are games that run better on Vista, and thanks to this site, I compiled a small list: www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=60232

Mind you, this is for the X3000, but since they are basically the same architecture, it shouldn't be too much different

-Call of Duty 4: Gives problem in XP, has to run on Safe Mode. Vista also gets better fps
-Test Drive Unlimited: Gets slightly better fps in Vista??
-World in Conflict: Does not run on XP
-ET: Quake Wars: Vista 15.7.3 drivers allow ET: Quake Wars to run, XP still does not run
-NFS ProStreet: Says less errors and better fps in Vista
-Gears of War: Gives errors in XP

i got it so far running at 20-40 FPS @ 1024x768 with a little tweaking in the config.

Huh? don't no if i understand that correctly..... but theres nothing wrong with tweaking a game to make it run better????

It would be just nice to run the games for those who cannot or pertain the little knowledge of 'tweaking'. So its best to put on pics from games that are not tweak for the rest of the crowds who are looking at this thread for advice.

StarScream4Ever · 01-26-2008, 12:01 AM

IntelUser could you test some of the game that said it run fine on X3000 on the X3100?
