Having issues running NFL 2K5.

[SStrykeRR]

so i have a OC'd FX-8350 cpu @ 4.4ghz and a OC'd EVGA GTX 970 SSC gpu yet when i get into a game of NFL 2K5 the frames stay at around 40fps and i have no idea why. whenever im not in a game the fps goes anywhere from 60 to 100. ive watched countless youtube videos of the settings im suppose to have and none of them work. somebody please help me out because 2k5 looks great in 1080p.

So i got it working to where it stays in the 60s (besides kickoff where it dips into the high 40s) but sometimes it spikes into the 80s how do i lock it to 60fps?

You either have turbo mode (TAB button) or the frame limiter set to MAX (F4 button). You can see it at the top of the game window. If it says "Limiter: Normal" it will lock to 60fps again.

it now says limiter normal and it never gets higher then 120fps but not 60.

Go to Config > Emulation Settings > GS tab. Is the Base Framerate Adjust set to 200% instead of 100% ?

so it seems when i put it in turbo mode it locks it @ 60fps and in normal its @ 120..... hmmm.... well i guess this works lmao thanks for your help.

So what good settings did you find that made it work? I have similar issues, Through the startup, menus, pregames I stay at high FPS and the game runs smoothly but during the game it intermittently changes from smooth to slightly slowed down.

What do the EE an GS percentages at the top of the game window say?
