Well all that and I got 2 screen shots. Either my F9 button is broken or my harddrive must be full again. I should have like 20?

Here are some pictuares for you. You can change the display settings.. and from map to map the will have more or less influence on your performance. Here are two pics, one from high resolution and one with lowest settings. I used maps I made, as I know what I did on them and what I had in mind. I make maps with high settings and far fog distance in mind, the reducement is for players who either don't want high textures or there PC can't handel so much details. On Dreamus it's just one, as the different is not very high.
High settings:

Low settings:

Dreamus 2 SE high settings 470 fps

M5MantaMadness Low settings 412 fps
You have to know that you normaly will not stay up there, but on the ground and in the building. There is the fps higher due to the mountains and so on. And it's for low power PCs, so normaly you should be able to increase at least the fogdistance a bit.

M5MantaMadness High settings 218 fps

M5s-RottenTanks Low settings 469 fps
On this you can good see how textures, polys and colours are changing as well as how static meshes are disapiaring due to the fogdistance.

M5s-RottenTanks High settings 431 fps

Hey Joe.
Oops. I forgot to post. I didn't get the numbers that Miauz got but the numbers typically stayed over 100 and rarely dipping below that. Sometimes going over 200. It was all over the place. So, if you get that RX580 running, you should get over 100 most of the time with everything maxed out. Whisper: I think Miauz photoshopped those numbers.

Edited my computer specs on page 7. I guess the post are not numbered?

I played around with the laptop and the fast moniter and I am not sure the im getting the 120hz or the 240 hz. Im pretty sure the card supports it and I have the correct cable it seems to default back to 60hz even though the lap top moniter is 120hz.

Odd observation with the laptop its not some much you get more frames things seem to be much clearer al most like watching a 3d movie or something.

I got myself basically this computer a few months ago, and it's doing pretty well:

It's nice to finally have my own desktop again after four years.

I can not find all the specs to my computer but here goes. (Edited for more info)

AMD Quadcore Phenom Quad core 9650 (updated info)
AMD 4650 the fan went bad for probably months before I noticed it was over heating. New fan but this cards history.
Win XP.
Samsung SyncMaster B2330 rated 60hz

News stuff as yet to be installed:

Radeon RX580 still scared to install it.its PCIx16 but not sure if it will fit and my power supply is small.

Viewsonic XG2530, I use this with my Win 10 laptop and its pretty damn sweet. rated 240 hz at 1ms.

Laptop, AKA the Dragon, is MSI GE72MVR 7RG its has a GTX 1070 i7 7700. the laptop screen is 120hz also.

Well the good the bad and the ugly...short version of a long story I pretty much killed my XP box and havent been on in 6 months.

The Rx580 fit and with the new power supply it worked.Used the computer a day or two and It all went down hill when I tried some other drivers and now I cant even get it to boot in safe mode. I duel boot with this computer and was working on Ubuntu upgrade and that really iced it. I had a linux driver for it so I was thinking that would bail me out.

I know when I bought the new card there was an XP driver and a WIN7. I dragged my feet installing it and when I finally did BOOM no drivers online and Win7 support had just ended.

I did buy a copy of win7 but decided on a SS hardrive too,COVID hit and computers parts went to vaporware. I never got a SSD. Theres a driver CD but I dont have a CD player that works anymore.

There's no need for a driver for a ssd to work, may be you have to switch the bios for AHCI but it should already be, check for boot order or reset CMOS.

If you talked about the RX580 W7 drivers:

Windows 7 (64 bit, x64)

Windows 7 (32 bit, x86)

Yes the Win7 driver are still available. I downloaded them many times just in case. Thank you.

Win7 is not really for sale here stateside. Microsoft ended support for it so regular outlets don,t sell it.I bought it off shore I have it on a USB stick.

I figured while I was going from winXP to win7 I wold go with a new SSD since my old hardrive is a very slow conventional hard drive and then I would just have win7 and UT2004 on it.

When I went to purchase a SSD they were all out of stock or prices have tripled. COVID19 has everyone working from home here so computer parts are all in short supply.
