Han, how did it do at FragBU last night?
Pretty well I think.
In the early games I wasn't so much concentrating on frags, I was more or less keeping an eye on how my fps' were doing. The change in graphics were subtle but I could tell they were better. I played around with the LG/Shock/Sniper most of the time to see how well I was doing with body/headshots. I was kinda surprised at how many I was hitting. I was not able to do that well before. Later on in the evening I just played like normal as I got used to the change in graphics but I was still getting pegged in the little 1 on 1's by Rev. and MAEST in terms of LG/Shock primary hits, but they're much better players than me so I don't think fps are going to give me an edge with them. (I need to work on my aim)
The biggest change is in the AS maps, they were really choppy before and they're smoother now, very playable.
I've got to say, I'm a little spoiled with my fps' in games like CoD/ET, those run silky smooth and 2k4 (AS and ONS) runs like a 3 legged dog compared to them.
Overall, I would say that for the amount of money I spent on the new card I didn't really get my money's worth in the increase in frames, I mean 266$ for roughly 10 fps? That's not exactly a bargain.
