  1. Thank you for the clarification. Analized that. It proved what I predicted. The shadows took a lot of CPU time. But I keep them turned off mostly anyway.

    I gained also 4-5 fps by turning Avast off, as one of the previous posts suggested. (greatful for that!)

    So if I keep the fraphics settings moderately low and avoid crowded places, I can get around 15 fps. Almost playable.
    Will have to stick with that and prepare myself to CPU upgrade.

    I thank every participant in this thread who was trying to help me. You are the best!

     

    Sincerely yours.

  2. Here's my info from LL viewer:

    Does enyone see a problem there?

  3. You can try to zoom the screenshot in. With the red arrow I pointed at the FPS reading. It sais 3 FPS. Sometimes it goes up to 7-10 FPS when I am in an empty location (with no other visitors). When I stend next to a wall and look at it (so I see nothing else) FPS might go up to 25-27. When a location is somewhat crouded, FPS is usually 1.2 - 4. And yes, the GPU load is around 3%

    When I change the grpahics setting to close to maximum, the FPS drops by 1-3 FPS. I found out that the greatest impact on FPS have the atmospheric shaders. With the settings on close to max, the GPU load is never above 30%.

    Let me answer some questions in advance:

    - Yes, I've installed the latest GPU drivers.

    - Yes, all the SL viewers I use (all 4 of them) recognised I've changed the graphocs card by displaying a message and changing the settings.

    - Yes, the grapgics card works fine. I tried several Nvidia tech demos. They run great.

    - Yes, the OS utilises the GPU as it should. I see great improvements in video and Flash playback.

     

    SL looks so great now with the new GPU. I really want to play it, but it's unplayable now.

  4. my next question may not be very appropriate for this thread, but I don.t know other forums where I could ask it.
    I have found a GTX 570. But the seller sais he's selling it because his power supply cant feed the graphics card good enough to make it work stable. So he had to underclock it.
    How do I make sure my power supply will successfully power the card? I havethis tower: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883107012R

  5. Hi.

    you are right. My GPU is low-end. But I used GPU-Z to monitor it. GPU load is around 30%-40%, rarely reaching 80%.

    I'm ready to upgrade my graphics card, but I want to make sure it will solve the problem. Right now I doubt it.
