SIMS 3 LOW FPS PROBLEM - ledman5555 - 17-04-2010 12:38 AM
I have a quad 2.5ghz q9300 cpu and a gtx260 nvidia. i got two raptors in raid 0 and 4gigs of ddr800
I have tried xp,vista and windows 7.
I have tried two different pc's
I have tried NUMEROUS different drivers (chipset/gpu)..
I have tried different hardrives.
MY PC IS WAY WAY WAY BEYOND the system requirements of the game and i still cant get it to run right...
This game is a joke... I have 2 friends that told me the game runs great on there systems, so i dont get it.
after researching i feel like its the game thats the problem, but then again how did my friends play it maxed out with no problems.
i even formated and tried 3 different operating for this crappy game...
also, i can RUN EVERYgame i can imagine and still sims 3 runs crappy....
am i the only one with this problem?

after running fraps to check my fps. My fps drops to 3-10 when scrolling around and zooming in and out...like i stated above i have a gtx 260... I have tried 4 different versions (including the latest one) from nvidia...
I also tried putting in my old 7800 256mb and still the same choppy crappy scenario
