    Hey guys
    im in the Settings ini.file for BFBC2 and curious to know what everyone is setting their FOV at for our 17" RGB 1920x1200 monitors.
    The Default FOV is 55 and i have mine at 74.
    It seems everything above 85-90 gives you fish-eye

    I just finished it. I never changed my FOV, but you should experiment with it.

    I have my FOV at 75. I was just curious what you guys had it set at?
    FOV changes only work in multiplayer.

    Hey Turbodtalon. How did you get your Vantage to in the 18700's
    My best is 18350.
    What are your GPU clocks at?

    895/1250. But DR650 and Joker have hit much higher clocks. Dude, 18,350 is no joke though. My GPUs don't overclock very well either.

    I'm at 880/[email protected]
    This is my 24/7 overclock
    895/1250 is insane!!
    What is your 24/7 overclock and at what voltage?
    My ThrottleStop is at TDP/TDC. 90/75
    With 25-25-25-25 multipliers

    50Mhz on the core and memory at stock voltage is what I run every day. If you think my highest clocks are insane, you really should check out some of the clocks that DR650, Joker, and Jubbing were hitting.

    I literally just finished that game. I wish I knew about this calculator before. The FOV cannot be manipulated in single player but can be in multi? That doesn't make sense. Oh well.
