Replace that 8400GS with at least a GTS 250, or 9800GT. And overclock that quad core from 2.4Ghz on up to 3.6Ghz if you can. If not, I know it'll at least do 3.2Ghz. Raise the RAM up a bit too, but not too awful far cause its probly not overclocking RAM. Then see if the game runs any smoother. My bet is that it will.
Hi,
I am good now...
I upgraded from
an nVidia GeForce 8400GS 512MB
to an nVidia GeForce GT 240 1GB
Can now run StarCraft 2 with graphics maxed out (Ultra)...
Thanks
Jesse
I guess the only difference between our systems are:
- Ubuntu 10.04 x86 (you) x86-64 (me)
- I have 8 gigs RAM, you probably less
- I have a Phenom II X4 965 BE
- you have a 240 GT, I have a 470 GTX (drivers 256.44)
- I'm using a USB mic+headphones
- I'm using Compiz
I've installed wine 1.3.0 with pulseaudio and that works.
I'm definitely thinking is an issue with then fact I'm using 64 bit software component which is slowing down the game...
Hi,
StarCraft 2 runs 60+FPS on "Ultra" graphic settings on my old computer.
My system is as follows:
- Dell XPS 420 (Modified) Code Named: "JetFire"
- Intel Core2Quad 2.4GHz 4 Core CPU (under-clocked to 1.6GHz)
- 4GB 800MHz DDR2 RAM
- 1GB DDR3 nVidia GT 240 Graphic Card (fanless)
(current nVidia drivers approved by Ubuntu team)
- Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE PCI sound card
- Ubuntu 10.04 Linux 32bit Final
- Wine 1.2 Final
- StarCraft 2 v1.0.2 (current)
(1024x768 window/graphics setting on "Ultra" / 60+ FPS)
Sorry it does not work on your state-of-the-art computer...
(older technology is always better for a Linux box though)
