is 20 FPS all i should expect during full grid situations ? no antri - virus program installed / not running FRAPS
Its not your system i have the Zotac GTX 480 and i have everything on full and getting 62fps no lagggy.
my system: Cpu Intel i5 750, 4GB, NVIDIA GeForce GTX275 S.O. win7 64 bit in spa i've 160 fps, in montecarlo 130 fps rf2 read only 3 GB Ram (...but i've 4 GB ). in monaco i prefer turn off shadows. in spa shadows are Full.
Lol, a GTX480 will destroy a GT240, the GT240 just isn't very good, sort of halfway between minimum and recommended spec.
I have a simular system with an GTX 260 OC but can't run everything high either. To get 60 fps al the time, I have to put everything on medium.........
Just remember, this is a BETA, so, it is nowhere near optimised yet, I am sure performance will get better before release...
thats what i'm looking for: someone with similar specs, to compare with. i was using the F1 2012 beta 1.6 as well
