    hey guys just trying to see what peoples fps are, i want to see if my vid card is defective.

    Please list your personal benchmarks for the stock 6860fx system.

    no cpu upgrades just stock.

    Mine are for waw

    Okay that makes a huge difference.

    At that resolution, those sound about right. Don't be too afraid if your card scores a little lower than it should when you're talking about averaging 60ish FPS. Crank up the resolution a bit to test it since a 10fps difference at 100fps is nothing compared to a 10fps difference when at 30-40 fps. Also, check their definition of "lowest". As in lowest number reached even if only for a brief moment? Or lowest number sustained over a few seconds of action?

    Standing on a hill, looking out over the landscape, near Ebon Watch in Zul'drak, I get about 25 fps at maxed out settings.

    Standing in the same place, I get over 60 fps with the following settings...
