Pablo I want you to do a quick benchmark. Download this gamemode: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=225187.0 and this save: http://www.cohortteam.com/#!projects/ctzx (BlockoSeattle v1.1) Start Blockland in singleplayer with that gamemode, load that save, orb around to ghost all bricks, go on top of the Life building, and stand on top of the dark gray pole. Look towards the tall white apartment building (One block in front of the hospital, it has a red and an orange building next to it in the same block). Turn up all the graphics settings in the options to their highest values (except shader) then type metrics(fps); into the console and report your FPS like I did at various shader levels: Off: 14 fps Minimum: 16 fps Low: 3 fps High: 2 fps Max: 2 fps I have ATI Radeon HD 5870 v2 with 1GB GDDR5 (default clock) and it cost me 552 USD. I will go cry in a corner if a 60 USD card is going to beat this thing that cost over 50% of my computer budget. I will only accept my defeat if OPs card is a furnace and requires water cooling. |
