I'm getting a strange speed related bug with my new graphics card. A small square segment and the FPS with go from anywhere from 10 to 38.

Specs:

AMD Athlon 2.4Ghz
3 Gigabytes of RAM
XFX 8600GT Fatal1ty. (I have OC'd this card a bit, but it does this on stock clocks too.)

I'll see if I get this with 1.07. Sorry I didn't post this in the beta thread, but I only recently received the card.

(Does this in 1.07, leads me to believe I need a driver update.)

That's the first thing I would do when I installed a new graphics card.
Believe it or not a lot of people have had problems with FPSC fixed simply by updating their drivers.

I have Forceware 169 now, the lastest XFX has for me. It still drags.
I don't know why it's going on.

Send me an FPM level using default media and I will run it here. Also fully describe exactly what it is you are experiencing. 'Drag' does not really convey what the problem is

Oops so sorry. It isn't very smooth when I move the camera. It's less noticable when I don't walk while moving the camera. It happened right after I put in my new 8600 GT. Drivers are up to date, so is DirectX 9.0c.

Here is that FPM

Holy.... It just stopped. It seems something was taxing resources, or something. Feel free to padlock!
