Edit: my bad misread, yea 8800gt is more than enough, so obivously his 8800gt is overheating

And for that problem with mass units, how much ram are you using?

by playing on LOW your putting much less stress on the GPU so it won't heat up as much
which brand of the 8800gt do you have? because I've owned about 3 8800gt before and most of them had overheating issues which was a common problem for the evga, bfg brands
Umm I'll check when i get home, but it seems like alot of people are having problems with the nvidia videos cards

Should i wait for blizzard to fix this, or is this mainly a hardware issue in which i have to add something like a bigger fan?

Posted via RS Mobile
4GB of ram

The unit issue affected all 4 of us.

We would get a " *insert name* is slowing down the game " message. Eventually all of our names popped up at the same time with that message

how do i have that FPS displayed on my screen (something like on CS or L4d2)? i am having the same problem playing on my laptop when about 30 units attacks me. i don't know whether it's my connection, processor, or graphics card.

Vendor: GenuineIntel
Speed: 2526 Mhz
Video Card:
Driver: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570
RAM: 4062 Mb

i had to set my resolution to 1024x768, then it ran smoothly. maybe i will update my driver when i get home...

For displaying fps in game, I'd suggest MSI afterburner as it does overclocking, hardware monitoring as well as in game fps display. Free program as well and is very well received in the gaming community.

For the people that put up their SC name, you need to put a character code with it otherwise it can't be found.

The 8800 GT isn't supposed to be the minimum, its actually one of the Blizzard recommended GPUs according to a lot of what I have read
