Gaming on GMA x3000 (G965 Chipset) !!!!!!!!!!!

[MambaXL]

hi guys, i want to know that can i tweak any internal settings for a gma x3000 chipset to boost gaming performance ?
please educate me on using those setting (like those opengl settings in intel's control panel).
I use the dx90c dec redist, but still many games lag in performance, even DOOM3 (doom3 is a slide show). many games didn't play at all (cod2, nitro family, cs:s, hl2 -- this much i have checked).
please help me !!!!!! i m n a pathetic condition

my m/c specs are:

Intel c2d e6400
asus p5b-vm
1024mbx1 ddr2 (hynix-667mhz)
seagate 200gb (7200 rpm)
intel drivers updated to v47.64
dx90c updated to dec_redist

please help
thanks

Sorry, There is nothing you can do to play in internal graphics. You need a Graphics card to play those game. Get a card like 7300 GT or GS or 7600 GT or GS. You can get 7600. If you can wait for few more months you can get directx 10 cards.

@mambaXL
what??Hl2 ran on my older Tnt2 & on my friend's intel 845 @ 10-15 fps....
u say it does not work on x3000?...thats shocking

ok.
1. Update ur gfx drivers
2. Run games @ 640x 480 with AA & AF off @ low detail
3. i think u can set the texture / destop colour to 16 bit from the control panel. do that..
4. Disable aa,af & set Vertical Sync to off.
5. set the texture filtering to bilinear

>i don't know what other options r present in the x3000....can u list the settings in the gfx driver control panel??

try running it wit 3d analyser... n select a low end nvidia...

Instead of using 3d analyser and playing on low quality. He can get a graphics card which does not cost much.

buying low end cards now is pure waste of money and investing in dx10 cards now is pure waste of brain. so i need proper guidance from you guys. please let me know some other things that might be helpful to me.

thanks.

try running on software rendering mode in video settings.

Actually intel GMA 3000 drivers are little buggy when it comes to OpenGL games.

or

download latest 4074 version of video drivers from intel's website.

im currently using v47.64.. i think there is something to do with the directx_dec_redist. after updating my dx90c(from the original provided with xpsp2 disk), im experiencing problems, i think.
but, yes i have never tested those games beore that too.
what do yo say ? what is your opinion ?
