Crysis 8500 GT 8500GT medium

[SlingerMarshall]

i had a P4 @ 3.0 ghz, 1.5 gb ddr2 ram and an ati raedon x1650 pro with 512 vram and i still ran this game better on medium with some minor settings adjustments..

[DiegoAlanTorres]

Why does it say 8500 GT 8500 GT twice???

[beatdathaguy98]

Well with only 1 processor...

I think it goes better with 2

[megahustlenflowspare]

this seems pretty laggy but pretty good game though

[MrTrollGuy2]

@oerdi123

It's is called "lag" it is not a rare specimen but very dangerous. Its most common side effect is "Rage Quit" or "Rage". It may not seem like you have been infected, but you are. The only cure is a better system and better connection.

[oerdi123]

GUYS IF U DONT HELP ME IM GONNA DIEEEE

this is my problem:

While playing any 3d Game, Such as Counter Strike ! The game goes and loads very very extremely fast ! or it goes veryy slow ( it doesnt lagg but its like slow motion) for like 3 seconds then it returns in normal for like 1 second and keeps repeating

PLEASE HELP ! i updated my graphic drivers ! !!!

[Trollawk]

The 8500gt CANNOT get playable fps above 800x600 with medium quality settings. My old 8600gts that I oc'd to 740/1.3k barely held on at 1024 in medium.

p.s.

People, you really gotta stop it with the CPU's, people have been running Crysis max'd out, 16x aa and 16x af, 1920 res with pentium 4's. Seriously, stop thinking the CPU has THAT big an impact of stuff that needs GPU power, I mean otherwise why even have GPUs?

[usmceflips]

try lowering resolution

the fps will rise like a dick....

[TWINSnik]

is this fps free?

[gatler05]

you need a bigger power supply and better processor, and more ram:P.

[xxl606]

I think that you may be getting low fps because of the pentium 4

[Arkaskas1]

@xxl606 Nah.Even with a better 4 core or 2 core the difference wont be more than 10 fps. 8500 gt is not very good.

[MrBanek93]

in my videcard 8500gt(msi)overlocking

in high 20fps

[Killerman2464]

resolution ?

[456ter]

WTF! y play with a 8500GT in medium graphics and i have 20-30 fps.

[MrSummersnow27]

can my pc specs run it smoothly?

with high settings of sounds and physics?

intel pentium 4

320gb HDDR space of gaming

2gb kingston Ram gddr2

1gb gddr2 video card Geforce 9800gtx

can i run it smoothly?

[xxl606]

@MrSummersnow27 not with your cpu for physics

[FRURMELLL]

@MrSummersnow27 Possible. What kind of pentium 4 is it? Needs to be AT LEAST 2.8 ghz. Hyperthreading also helps.

[Davidopoland]

@MrSummersnow27

no way. the only thing what handles Crysis maxed out [absolutely, included Resolution and 8x AA] is an ATi HD5970 and i7 cpu. with 6gigs of ddr3 ;) so please people stop telling that the rig with 9800gtx, gtx295 in quad even can handle the game with frames upper than 59 frames.

[TombMan12]

@Davidopoland yeah the only thing is you need yo overclock you GPU and CPU to max it all out with 1920x1080

[jaimalibu]

@Davidopoland

GeForce GTX 580 3,840

GeForce GTX 480 3,532

GeForce GTX 570 3,466

videocard benchmark....these cards will play crysis 2 on highest possible with over 50+ fps :D

[Sagemaster00]

its what I have. what is the latest card I should probobly get?

[StiebensGames]

I run this game on very high with HD4870 1GB and I get 30FPS sometimes 40 and sometimes 25 BUT ENOUGH! LOL!

[floopsie666]

30 is enough though. I run it on VHIGH at 1920*1080 and I get like 40 frames sometimes 25 but I don't notice a difference.

[StiebensGames]

Yeah, it is hardly noticable.

[RavenholmHunter]

!!! hardly ? try plang gta4 on 40 fps than 25 fps !

[themaniacboy]

That's not many, i get around 30-40 with 4770 1.2 gb

[StiebensGames]

Yes, sometimes my frames go up to 50 but I thought let's not say that too loud :O

[themaniacboy]

People won't believe you or they think you overreacting

Is that what you mean ?

[StiebensGames]

Exactly =D

[joecobra1234]

Hey, download MSI afterburner v 1.3 for your graphics card works for ati and geforce works fucking great !

[ricoulquiorra]

fake, isso e low ¬¬

[Kage999]

8800GTS sli 35 FPS high 1680x1050

[agusr32]

tan lento? yo tengo una 9500 gt y me anda de 20 a 30

[garciaalexis12]

habla ingles,no entiende una mierda de lo ke dijistes chabon

[NerdyVic287]

I got GeForece8800 on this comp, I run crysis on high

[simmok123]

my gtx 275 runs crysis nicely

[lewo555]

fuck crysis you want to test it on Race Driver GRID or ArmA 2 crysis kills even the best of cards and systems that what people don't understand

[theTIMEcanoe]

been running crysis on my ocd 8600 gt for 1.5 years now on custom ultra settings. no prolems yet. do some reasearch

[xdirt1]

resolution ?

[punkster4eva]

1024*768

[xdirt1]

then try 800x600

[Methecookie3456]

laggy....

[nelizmastr]

hehe my 8500gt came with an arctic cooling system. when idle the temp is around 44C, and in-game it doesnt go over 49C

[iTobz0r]

Lucky. My 8500gt is 66c idle on stock clock

[nelizmastr]

my arctic cooling accelero S1 really rocks

[kop300]

it's not all in the graphic card

[nelizmastr]

nope, his power supply isnt up to crysis

[HQA0]

my 6600 runs better than that with a 2.8ghz processor

[an4ximander]

can anyone tell me if 8500gt is something like 6600(or 6600gt) or 6800 (not the gt of course : / ) ?

[PITX85]

slide show

[carlzz36]

doesnt run that bad

[MercXD]

Theres a flare at the begining and that kills the shit out of it even at low

[voip99]

co tu duzo gadac nastepny sie znalazl(śmiech) kurwa ta karta ledwo daje rade z grami z 2004 i wiem co mówie bo mam tą karte,wystarczy poszukac sa tu ludzie ktorzy w far cry 2 kraja na very high na tej karcie buhahaha

[polly331o2pl]

to fajny masz procesor idz sie powies

[007BOY247]

lmao check my newest crysis video all high settings + i have ati radeon 4350 HD 512 MB

[ki11joy92]

i think id raather play with some lag than low settings cuz it looks like CRAP!

[rsjokes]

I personally wouldn't, I play a game made in 2002 on the lowest settings and I still only get about 20fps if i'm lucky. Graphics really don't affect the playability of the game, lag does.

[Mibatukz]

punkster4eva,

you would play nicely with your specs if you had a better processor.

the problem is p4 (one core processor),

try getting a core 2 duo or quad and it will be smoother.

[xdirt1]

or he just moove the clock of his cpu ;-)

[mushfikniloy]

wat abt pentium D??i tested my cpu and they said it has 2 cores...but this game lags with 8500gt

[andiac]

Yes. A Core2Duo E4300 or a AMD x2 4400 für example would be a fine ground for playing modern games. Crysis would run with the same videocard at 1024x768 and low details smoothly enough to have most fun with this game.

[xdirt1]

You Fucking ediot :@ Overclock your video card and your CPU and then play it and you well see the diffrence ;-)

[afropoweri]

well ypu could tell him that wothout calling him fucking idiot:@

[xdirt1]

lol it wosent me sorry !!

[DASpArTaN]

ive got a Intel Pentium 4 CPU @3.20 GHz, same as yours, but i just bought a dual core 3.2ghz and my graphic card is an ASUS EN8800GS, its an extreme overclocking version of the 8800gs series, and i get about 20minimum frames running at 1280x 1024 and 40 maximum frames. on medium with no aa no and no vsync.

[elite1387]

i have a evga 8500GT, it's OC'd, I can play on med/high just by turning view distance to 30% and turning off all texture filtering, I get about 30 fps on average 22 at lowest.

[Turkisstory]

Wow, this video I came across again on a random pro site called Twenga UK...

is it yours?

[h0rE9Ey]

I have the 8500gt in one of the machines downstairs and i can get much higher fps then that maybe the reason you get so low is because of the cpu

[punkster4eva]

you're probably right. i got this PC at least 4 years ago and upgraded it, but most of the hardware is still outdated by today's standards for gaming PCs.

[pc4gamers]

@punkster4eva lol computer upgrades get outdated in a week and its only gonna get worse ahahah

[porkyminch01]

@punkster4eva a 9800 or 8800 is fine for all your games , is just that directx11 shit that is ruining everything and now that fucking pci 3.0, you can also play on the lowest res or use the sli bridge whit other 8500 if you have 2 PCi ports.

[porkyminch01]

@porkyminch01 PCIe X16 I mean

[thomyericson]

"running Crysis on 8500 GT on medium settings mostly except for sound quality and physics quality, but they only affect CPU, i believe. i get about 14 frames per sec which is not playable.

on low settings it is just about playable, i get 20-30 frames per sec which is fine for crysis imo."

i dont believe

pt4 2,5Ghz

1Gb of ram

nvidea 6200

and iget on low 13-20fps

what is your resolution

[punkster4eva]

i've upgraded again to 7950GT which is a bit better than the 8500GT.

i haven't play the whole of crysis with the 8500GT, but on the first level, i did get 20-30 frames per sec which was just about playable. i think that on the other levels of crysis, it would have been a lot slower and unplayable with the 8500GT.

i think i played with 800X600 resolution.

i'm pretty sure that the 8500GT is better than your 6200...

(coninued next comment

[punkster4eva]

oh wait, are you trying to say that you think the 8500GT should do better or worse than the performance i stated it gets?

[thomyericson]

i don´t know what wrong *LOL*

i cant play crysis on medium just low but i have the average 15fps

i don´t mean that your 8500 is bad

[porkyminch01]

@punkster4eva mine gets min 20 - 30 tru fax its overclocked to 650 mhz tough and I have 4gb of ram and I use a phenom II x4, I put everything on medium but whater and textures that are on high, i still have not reached the level were people say things get homo, anyway i am going to a 460 gtx 2 months from now aprox. I am poor you know

[d4mi4n44]

@thomyericson

i have on:

AMD athlon X2 - 2,4 Ghz

1gb of ram

geforce 6600gt 128 mb ddr3 ~22-28 fps on 800x600 with all on low

[kurtasel]

thats why its slow. you're using pentium 4 not a better cpu even its 3.0 Ghz, its not gonna help. upgrade your CPU. It might just help in medium settings.

[punkster4eva]

no, i think it's more to do with the graphics card than the CPU as with most video games on PC. i did upgrade the graphics card and it was bit better.

[slizzer416]

upgrade in the cpu will have a difference as well

going from p4 to a high end dual core will make a noticeable difference

[ultraproser]

I have a 8500GT 1Gb, 2Gb RAM, Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2Ghz system... so ill tell you this... dont blame the 8500GT cause you have a shitty Pentium 4... if you upgrade it to a Dual Core or Core 2 Duo at least youll have a better perfomance on your games... its not 8500GT fault... its your CPU man =)

[Turkisstory]

I just found somthing interesting on eBay UK.

The 7900GS XT is:

1) Cheaper.

2) More Powerfull with almost double the speed.

The 8600GT is:

1) More expensive

2) Half the memory clock of the 7900GS.

3) Supports DX10!!

Damn! I was looking into GTA4, and I found out you need DX10 to play it. And the 7900 is not supported by it.

That sucks.

[Turkisstory]

I have the Dell dimension 5100) Yeppi! Anyways, just to ask is the PC lagging, or is it the recording lag.

I want to upgrade my GC to a decent gamers one, but not sure if its worth it. I got 2GB ram in it, may boost it to a 3gb if need be.

Whatca think?

[punkster4eva]

what graphics card do you have? if you've got XP, another GB of RAM won't help a lot, so don't expect much performance gain.

[Turkisstory]

Yeah, I got XP Pro. I just always like to be on the plus side you know? Seen as 1GB of DDR2 800 costs around $10 these days.

I was thinking on overclocking the processor to 4ghz. I took it down to my local PC store, he said its possible to push this to 4.2 if cooled right. So I said around 3.8 will do just fine.

The only think I just noticed is, I have a 3ghz HT not the 3.2ghz like I though. All I need extra he said is another 120MM fan mounted to the case to give it the cooling it needs.

[punkster4eva]

i don't think there's much improvement (game performance wise) from overclocking that CPU. from what i've heard, the CPU we've got runs hot, so any more overclocking could mean a lot of heat. if i was you, i wouldn't bother with OCing it. just go for the graphics card upgrade if you want the most bang for buck.

[Turkisstory]

Blah, your probbally right. But I would still like to at least get the max standerd which was made for these processors and that was a 3.4ghz.

If I get that pushed by the extra 400mhz (which comes free with the graphics card btw :D) I'm happy with.

But overall, what do you think of the 8500GT? Will it last 6 months? Does it support DX10? Will it play GTA4? And so on.

(Sorry for the qestions, its hard to come across another 5100 user.)

[punkster4eva]

i would not recommend the 8500GT. about 3 months ago i upgraded to a 7950GT which is better than 8500GT but to be fair, the 7950GT is still not satisfactory :P

if i was you, i'd look for a better graphics card. at least an 8600GT, otherwise you'll be hungry again for better graphics with the 8500GT.

[Turkisstory]

So what is the top top top one out there at the moment? is it the 9800? I'm a broke ass motherfucker right now, I just bought my first car = face fucked insurance. So I'm in the minues atm. :)

Thanks anyways.

[punkster4eva]

9800GT is a good card, which is apparently the same as the 8800GT so you may as well get the 8800GT if you wanted to cop out that much money. depending on which country you're from, one card could be good value for me, but not good value for you. i'm from the UK and atm, online, the best value card i could buy is probably the 8600GT if i was in your position.

[Turkisstory]

Yeah, what abbout the 9600 GSO? They sell it for $79 from tigerdirect - com

I sent you a PM.

[Jinsukiji]

If you want a card that would last, I'd recommend going with the 9800 GT, the cost nowadays is around $100 which is pretty affordable for today's gamers, and offers high performance with a normal resolution. (AKA not extremely expensive monitors with high resolutions.) ;P

[HoboBob24]

Save some more. In a few months the 4870 will be a budget card, the 260 too! But if you want a good card right now go with the 9800gt, mine's sitting under the tree right now. I'm using a PNY 8500gt 512mb ddr2 right now, It's not bad, but it's not that great either.

Sorry for the hrammAtical errors... it's like 2 a.m.

[shadow5games]

Lol I get 30-40 fps on Ultra High =] Cool video though

[sonic4sale]

take in for example hes using single core 3 ghz with (dont know how much memory, guessing the minimum like the cpu) 1 gb, and a now so great psu... thats not bad, if you had anything a little more decent youd be going pretty good on medium for a cheap price.

[athompson1989]

yh naf card, best bang for buck at min is HD Radeon 4850 or Nvidia 9800GTX+

[STEAMflipp25]

This card is actually pretty good when its overclocked:)

[RenatoCervati]

I have the same card,same performance...

I'll got a 9800 GT soon as possible

[punkster4eva]

apparently, the 8800GT has very similar performance to 9800Gt but is cheaper, so maybe you should get 8800GT instead? i'm not 100% sure on this so you might want to ask others before you follow my advice.

[rocwiler0]

this looks way too good to be an 8500gt

[punkster4eva]

it is way too good. if you look in my comments, i said the game on all medium settings gets an average framerate of 14fps which is crap.

[Authenticiter]

*RenatoCervati*, to answer the comment on *punkster4eva*, in fact there is no difference in terms of performance between the 8800 GT and the 9800 GT.

The advantage of the 9800 GT is a better cooler on the videocard, so if you wanna overclock your videocard in the futur, the 9800 GT is a good choice.

But if you don't plan to overclock your videocard, don't waste your money and go for the 8800GT who is as good as the 9800GT !

Good comment *punkster4eva* !

Take care guys,

May God bless you !

[bunuptoast]

very shitty card, I would imagine punkster4 not recommending this card at all. trust me this isn't better then a high 7 series card.

[Fredvdp]

I had an 8500 GT but now I have a 9600 GT. Mass Effect runs six times faster now. :)

[jabron0000]

this card sucks. don't waste your money on this shitty video card

[punkster4eva]

amen to that brother. i've got a 7950GT now. it's quite a lot better.

[STEAMflipp25]

What card do you have?

[RnB12]

GeForce 8500 GT 512 MB

Windows Vista DX10

1 gig of RAM

AMD 3800+ 2.0 GHz Dual Core

And i can run crysis at medium-low settings (800x600) at around 25 fps.

[reweshs]

may be cuz you are runnin the game on 64 bit dx10

[punkster4eva]

that can't be coz i'm using windows XP, so its 32 bit in DX9 mode.

[mansu08]

the game will wrk gdd with windows xp but not vista, if u hav XFX 8500GT 1GBDDR2..

[reweshs]

i dont know man this game runs great with me even mass effect runs better than this

[punkster4eva]

what are the rest of your PC specs?

[reweshs]

but still man if this was 8500 gt it should run a lot better

[punkster4eva]

most of the comments i've read about other people who have 8500GT say they get similar performance as me, maybe slightly better coz i have crapper hardware, but not much.

[Destiny4Travail]

ive had the same result with my 8500 gt

[feuerzzz]

its a nice video card. its not the best but its very decent

[ryanoghlan]

this is actually pretty good for a 8500gt.

[reweshs]

come on man thats shit i have amd athlon 64x 2 5000 + 1.50 gb ddr2 ram and a 8500gt 512 mb xfx and it runs so fast the is not even one glitch so is gears of wars and mass effect and assassins creed man they run like maximum hell speed man so this thing up there it aint true its shit

[punkster4eva]

have you tested crysis using that card? well, i'm not lying about the framerates i get. it's most likely because we've got other different hardware. my other hardware is probably bottlenecking my GPU, which is why i posted the rest of my specs.

[mansu08]

hey i have got a:

AMD athlon 64 x 2 5000+

2GB DDR2 Ram

250GB hardive Vista 32 bit

Nvidia Geforce 8500GT 1gbddr

but my crysis run bout the same on medium kinda slow, ny1 know how 2 speed it up lol..

[punkster4eva]

new graphics card is the most obvious thing to do. i'm getting a 7950GT for £53. when i finally get round to installing it, i'll let you know if it's worth purchasing.

[zenniz1992]

Change yoru graphic card and your PSU and your chassis.

A 8800GT will do the job.

[shattywack]

can some one help me cus i have to choose between a ibuypower gamer pc 909 or a 974 model and im not totaly sure which is better.

[punkster4eva]

posting links or specs would be helpful for us to be helpful for you

[StalkingyouXD]

i get about the same amount fps but i have pentium 4 2.80 ghz nivida Geforce 8500 gt 1 gig gddr2 and a big ass power supply and 1.5 gigs of gddr2 ram on my comp how can i get better fps and graphics if any one knows private message me thx

[punkster4eva]

i'd suggest upgrading your graphics card. that's the biggest performance gain you'll get for the money.

[ryanoghlan]

I would go for a new graphics card. look at the 4850 its the best mid range card for the price.

[couldntgetanamelol]

lol, dont mind what the guy recomends, for a low price u can get a 9600 gt and u can play crysis on dx10, some things on high others on medium, 2x aa if u want, and u get 20-30 fps... better than a 7950....

[punkster4eva]

but 9600GT costs more than 7950GT, from the sites i've looked at like ebay. i don't think there's any need for DX10 yet, so i want to get the 7950GT still. then when DX10 becomes mandatory, then i'll go for a 9 series card possibly or even go with ATI cards, coz they've released some decent cards recently from what i've heard like the HD4850 and HD4870

[couldntgetanamelol]

mmm well 9 series now has been replaced with the gtx 260 and the 280 as far as i know.... Still if u want a decent low price vid card i'd recommend the 9600 gt, the price of 1 is below 150 dolars. Maybe u think dx10 is not like totally necessary now, but if ure not planning to upgrade in the next year or so, get a 9600 gt

[punkster4eva]

graphics cards prices seem to be different in the UK where i live. I'm jealous of the US prices coz they seem so much cheaper. this is why i got the 7950GT, coz it was significantly cheaper than any other cards. almost half the price of the 8800GT and 9600GT

[lindopool]

do i detect some lag?

:P

[KillaSandwich]

Hey punkster! :)
