Bad framerates? - Garry's Mod

I'm getting around 120-130 fps. I know i souldent be complaining. But i have a 285gtx. and i think i should be getting better preformance. I have i7 920 evga 28 5gtx 6gm ddr3 ram 1600mhz Any help is appreceated

Quit complaining. Im on a 7300 LE. Im only getting 25 on a good day.

>_> Im not Dont post pointless comments

YOU QUIT COMPLAINING if i'm really lucky i get to 25 otherwise i have a computer from like 2002 jesus shut up.

You have 100 fps and you say that you have BAD FRAMERATES? What FPS you want? 500 fps? I have 20-70 fps and i'm not complaining (anymore) Human eye can't see any difference if its 60-200 fps. If you really want that 200 fps, try to defrag your hard drive.

OMG! THAT IS A BAD FRAMERATE? ITS PERFECT! I have 60 and im perfectly fine with it, you have 120-130 FPS and you say that is bad. Most people play with under 30 FPS.

Ahhh 130 is junk...I get 262.3 FPS with AA 16x on 1680x1050 I blow all of you out of the water....source is so easy on my system.

Just help me......

How abou you HELP Not spam HELP

[QUOTE=bijan;17953483]Just help me......[/QUOTE] Really, you don't need more than 130 fps. Your screen is probably not capable of showing more than 60fps, so it won't make any difference. [editline]05:45AM[/editline] But if you are so goddamn desperate, try ending some processes while playing, like Explorer.exe, and then restart it when you're done playing.

120 is fine, but on this old box, Radeon 3850, Athlon 64 LE-1620, y'know, 2.4 GHz (I have overclocked to 2.8 though..) and running XP SP3, 32-bit, I get over 80 at all times.

Make sure that: Graphics drivers are up to date. No programs using CPU a lot in background. No viruses (do a virus check) Also make sure that steam is not downloading anything in the background and sometimes addons can slow down fps a lot

Here is something that most people overlook, Garry's mod is a CPU HUNGRY GAME. So your cpu might be bottle necking your gpu or visa versa. That is whats going on with me, I have a p4 cpu at 3.2 GHz and a 9800 GTX+ and my fps is average 90 when it should be like 300+ if I had a quad core, and it also depends on what os your on.

He's got an i7, vexx.

Source uses havok, People tend to get quite alot better fps on ATI cards. Doesn't really suprise me.

-dxlevel 80 solves all problems

[QUOTE=iNfArEd;17977079]-dxlevel 80 solves all problems[/QUOTE] Because he wants to run in directx 8 with a 285gtx :downs: Don't be stupid.

Ontopic: Are we talking about an empty flatgrass or construct map here or what? if so, yes, you should have much, much more than only 100 fps, check the console command "max_fps". Another thing that can affect your FPS a lot is your graphics driver, try to update it if you haven't done so lately.

[QUOTE=SlayerFin;17956496]He's trying to break record.[/QUOTE] If you want to break the record, try to mess around with the "host_timescale" command, perhaps that's cheating :ninja:

I got about 10000 FPS using that method! :D But, yeah, it's cheating.

[QUOTE=djjkxbox;17997679]I believe the default cap is 300 but with the max_fps command you should be able to change it[/QUOTE] Yeah I know, it's just that last time I tried, my FPS stuck around 300-301, although that might just have been a bug or some other problem. Maybe they've changed it since then, I should try again.

[QUOTE=SlayerFin;18024983]Oh? I defragged my hard drive and Fallout 3:s FPS went from 20 to 40.[/QUOTE] And my computer loads faster when I smash it with a hammer... Just because you say it doesn't make it true. Also Fallout 3 is a virtual real world, there's readings to the hard-disk at all time unlike Garry's Mod. When you're standing still in Garry's Mod, there shouldn't be any readings to the hard-disk (except if some other player is running around spawning stuff).
