    How come when i Play beamNG Drive on my laptop (HP15 with an intel Celeron (me and my friends call it intel celery) quad core, 4 gigs of ram, and an intel graphics card) at 18 fps, when my desktop (AMD Catalyst quad core, 32 gigs of ram, 2 AMD raedon Graphics cards (runs dual graphics) with a solid state hard drive) runs at 2 fps? I just dont understand that, a $1500 desktop runs Beam ng slower than an all intel Hp 15 for $250.

    If you have a lot of back-ground programs running (other games, web browser, steam (in some cases) ETC) will do this so close as much windows aside from BramNG as possible?

    Even then, before I got the latest version (via flashdrive) I was running a good 82 fps on the desktop.

    Make sure BeamNG.Drive is using the correct GPU, also what if you're GPU.

    Tell me, is it CPU or GPU bound? Press Ctrl-F and there will be a thing that says the fps.
    Code:
    | FPS | [COLOR=#ff0000]XX[/COLOR]  max: blah blah blah
    It will look something like that, now tell me what the number is where the red XX above would be, now press j and tell me the number.

    there's your issue.

    edit: i didn't fully read your post. i am an idiot and i didn't fully understand your post. please disregard this. (i am not sure why your desktop is running slower than the celery.)

    Be sure Crossfire isn't activated when playing BeamNG. Torque 3D doesn't support it, so you end up with lower fps than in single-gpu-mode.

    Is beamng recognizing your GPU? If not the screen will appear very light and run very very slowly as I have experienced myself until I installed my GPU right :p

    What did you do to get beam NG to work with your GPU

    Um, how are you running crossfire with a dedicated to a integrated? and How in the world would that possibly help performance, also what model graphics card? AMD Radeon HD 4???-5???-6????-7??? I can't really help without knowing what level of GPU we are dealing with.

    "AMD Radeon" That info is so vauge that you could be running an ATi Radeon x1000 from 2005 as far as I know. Download GPU-Z It will tell you all the specs [All we need is the model]

    0.0 No comment Intel Celery FTW? [I'm kidding, seriously we need to figure out what the crap is going on, also maybe get CPU-Z so we can hear about that too]

    "AMD Catalyst quad core" This isn't a real CPU... Catalyst is a software for you're GPU Driver that AMD Makes..



    Nothing, mine/most of ours worked from the get, go. :(

    That's your problem. The 6570 is a rather old low end card. You need an upgrade.

    LOL that is hilarious, My onboard card is an AMD Raedon HD 7660D, so my onboard is better than my other Graphics card lol. I think I spent too much on the 6570.


    Edit: I switched to my onboard card, and now i am at 11.6 before pressing j and 11.8 after pressing j

    Still being GPU limited.

    Go into the graphics settings from COntrol-O (rather than the new GUI method of changing settings) and make sure to disable PostFX from the window on the left. That causes mega slowdowns when enabled on low end cards.

    It's funny, I actually can play this game on my laptop, which has only had RAM added to it, nothing else, still all of the Intel gubbins inside. Maybe I got the only good thing that Intel made!
