BF2 FPS Framerates

Posted: Tue Nov 01, 2005 6:40 am

How do you check your framerate inside BF2? I am trying to optimize the overclock VS temperature of my video card and I want to know what I am gaining by doing this. Already playing on the highest graphics settings.

use fraps ( http://www.fraps.com) for this ... it will display your fps when in game when running in the top left corner of your screen..if any members want the latest full version let me know and ill email it to you .

Just a footnote to this guys.. TSO has a built in FRPS all you need to do is active it in options Wink

but as you all know different factors can affect frame rates from other prgrams running including an FPS meter right down to what sound card your using. As for the sound I recommend you use a card with the FATAL1TY function which is Gamer friendly on resources etc... and dont worry if your frame rate is too low as people with higher framerates are easier to kill!! lol Twisted Evil

LOL Skally, nice name Very Happy

Bet you didnt know this for those of you that use TSO, Team Speak Overlay drops your framerate by 10-20%... On a £400 graphics card thats equivalent to taking a couple of crisp fifties and paying someone to announce who's talking!....
