5870 + Wolf:et


(unf4z3d) #1

Does anyone else here have a 5870 and is running et?

I’m getting huge performance hits when i approach anything with tga alpha transparency (trees, windows)

Can any people running et on a 5870 tell me if they experience similar results?

(btw, this happens at higher resolutions, which if u own a 5870 you’re probably setting urself to)

very odd, latest drivers ? if so, maybe roll back a version

It’s looking like an opengl issue, and it seems to occur when opengl brings this card to 100% load, it seems to dock the performance, as my temperatures stop rising.

it’s set for opengl not dx, in control center, correct ?

Problem fixed!

The new ati 5870 10.5 LEAKED drivers have openGL drivers 15 builds newer.

If you’re running et on your 5870 and you’re having issues, I recommend you grab em and give em a whirl.

n thanks for all your help Nail :slight_smile:
