    hi
    i got aan problem with the invalid gfx
    i got 2 cpu, desktop and laptop
    My desktop:
    wind 7 pro
    i7 3.4-3.9 (turbobust)
    12gb ram
    gtx 650 2gb
    240 harddrive
    (not finished?
    Asus 22' 1920x1080
    (fantastic) no crash, runs really smooth

    My laptop:
    win 8
    i7 4700MQ 2.4
    4gb ram
    intel hd 4600 2gb
    gt 740m 2gb
    15.6' 1366x768
    (simple settings) i get the invalide gfx on console on both cpu's but the only 1 that ''crash'' is the laptop.
    i already tried disabling the gfx.all but the problem still happens

    if someone has some info about this pls post

    i will try to get my fps in the difrent cpu's to post later
    i guess its because rust tries to run on intel igp by default
    force it to run on nvidia gpu instead.

    should be able to play high/maxed ~30 fps
    make sure Nvidia GPU is used though. dunno if dual cards work well with rust.. if they do then you have even better perf

    So I figured I'd give an update as much as I feel like me posting here is spam, I'll make a new topic when all the stuff gets here and test the results and differences. Ordered a radeon HD 6670, some 1g sticks of ram and a 480w psu. That should kick it up a bit and only cost about 100 bucks all together.

    Opened up my case since I last had issues years ago to find I still have the ancient 250w power supply and incompatable memory sticks at different speeds. That WILL cause your system to run at unstable voltages and has already claimed a GT 8400 so don't be an idiot like me and hopefully someone will learn from my mistakes. FML and don't tarnish always rust lmao!!

    Yeah, never a good idea to mix and match memory, you are just begging for system instability and yeah, 250w won't do you much good anywhere anymore.

    Specs:

    Processor: AMD FX-4100 Quad core @ 3.6Ghz
    RAM: 8GB DDR3
    GPU: Radeon XFX HD 6870

    Results(grass turned off and graphics option set to fastest):
    Get 30 fps max but often in the 20s and regularly falling into single digits and some major lag spots were screen goes black for a second or two.
    Also get a lot of rubberbanding and desync issues even when I pick the server with the lowest ping.

    Summary: Pretty disappointing when my specs exceed the 'recommended' specs. This is unplayable for me unless I enjoy getting stomped on by 99% of players out there due to lag.

    On my laptop:
    20+ fps @720p, grass.on false; env.clouds false (gave me massive fps boost), render quality 0, game settings fastest
    i5-3437U
    4GB RAM
    intel HD4000 series (HD4600 prolly)

    On my desktop PC:
    35+ fps @1080p, grass.on false; env.clouds false, render quality about 1/4, game settings fast
    good old C2D E8500 OC@4.0ghz
    6GB DDR2 RAM
    HD4870 512mb GPU OCed

    Can play really well on my desktop PC and quite happy with the performance of my ultrabook and its integrated gpu.

    driver issues maybe? try updating drivers.
    clean your system, defragement your hard drive (if you have HDD)
    check what processes are eating your cpu, check how much is the GPU utilization.
    fiddle with driver setttings.. lots of things to try.

    you should be able to run maxed ~60 fps with that GPU

    Thanks for replying. I'm going to go through the steps you sugguested and look online for other things i can do to increase my fps.

    How do I check how much is the GPU utilization?

    Yes, should be fine. Make sure that you set the dedicated GPU to run rather than the integrated graphics. That should max it.

    I checked and I'm using between 80-90% of the GPU while the game's running. At night time I get around 60 fps but in the day hit a ceiling of 30 and lower.

    Fyi I run the game smoothly with my piece of sh*t
    CPU: Intel Quad Core @ 2.00 Ghz
    RAM: DDR2 2GB
    GPU: Nvidia 8500GT

    So do you mean it would go 45-60 frames on low setting on my laptop cause yo usaid " i would imagine" does that mean its a 50% chance to actually work here?

    Hi, I would like som feedback on my system.

    I currently run:
    windows XP: 32bit
    3.3GB RAM (got 4mb but can only use 3,3 cause of 32mbit)
    ATI Radeon HD 5670
    AMD Athlon 64 x2 6000+
    Motherboard: ASUS M2A-VM

    I did play yesterday with the lowest settings and 1920x1080 resolution. The game was running OK i guess, but I felt that the actual aiming for me was a bit sluggish. Now onto my questions!
    I bought a Radeon R9 270X 2GB that I will use, do you think my new graphic card will have a big impact? The biggest bottleneck for me is the motherboard. It only supports DDR2.

    Will I be better of running Windows 7 64bit so that I can make use of all my RAM? Or am I better of still using XP 32bit? Will that extra 700 RAM be that much of a difference? What do you think. Upgrade to Win 7 64bit or not?

    To have a 27 page long thread of "Will this PC run ____ game?" is pretty retarded to say the least. If your rig can run most other games at a decent framerate, it can run Rust.

    However...that's not the problem, nor should it be the question.

    The question should be "Will my exact rig run Rust?"

    Rust is not very demanding graphics-wise, it's just optimized like shit...so even if you do have a mid to even high-end gaming rig, that doesn't mean Rust will run decently on it.

    Thought I'd chime in...

    I have an ASUS G55 Laptop
    3610QM CPU - OC'd a little to 3.4
    GTX 660M - OC'd to +135 core and +350 RAM
    16GB DDR3 1600 - OC'd to 1750
    128GB SATA 6 Mushkin SSD
    Windows 7 64

    Right now I play at 1920X1080 on max and get about 30FPS during the day with the grass off and about 50-60FPS at night.

    My GF is running...

    Lenovo Y500

    3620Q @ Stock
    GT750M - +135 Core and +300 RAM
    128GB mSATA SSD
    Windows 7 64

    This one plays at 1920X1080 on max with the grass off and is getting 24-25 during the day and 35 at night time.

    Hope that helps.

    Hello. I have some problems running rust. I tested it on 2 computers, they both lags. (BOTH COMPUTERS RUN WINDOWS 8.1)

    1.
    A acer laptop that contains:
    Intel HD 3000
    Intel core i5 (2.4 GHZ)
    4GB ram.
    1TB Hard Disc - SATA

    - You said it runs on 15 fps, it's a bit worse. 10 FPS

    2.
    A acer computer (Modified) that Contains:
    AMD athlon (dont know witch one precise but it is 3,2 GHZ)
    Nvidia GT220 - videocard
    4GB ram
    500GB Hard disc - SATA
    250GB SSD

    -This runs around 20 FPS, but when playing assassin's creed wich has even better graphics it has 41FPS witch all is on medium.

    __________________________________________
    Conclusion: So the one with the intel hd 3000 is like you said not playable. But the second one should be able to run it. I tryd doing the resolution lower witch plays it better but not reaching 30FPS. Only when i look at the sky or the ground it suddenly goes 50FPS. But does make sense. No physics or anything when looking up or down. I will try to get the grass gone, maby that helps. But still, can you look if it runs perfectly for me? Dunno why it goes so slow....

    The reason is probably the video card, it's a very early card from the 200 series which on its own is out of date. I'd recommend giving it an upgrade.

    I suppose I could help out.

    Windows 7 64 bit
    AMD FX 8320 3.5ghz CPU
    8 GB ram
    R9 270x Twin Frozr Gaming OC edition GPU
    M5a99x R Evo 2.0 motherboard
    1 TB Western Digital HDD

    Playing on 1920x1080

    I would run about 70+ FPS on the highest settings. One shitty thing is that my monitor screentears because it's only a 60hz and I need to enable Vsync, that makes me lag on servers with a lot of buildings and drops down to maybe 40-50 fps in heavy forested areas, but that's nothing to worry about if you don't need V-Sync.

    Should play fine maxed... Go to your Nvidia control panel, see if you can force Vertical Sync (Vsync) on, as rust does not automatically do so.

    Won't vertical sync tax the card more? I took the card out and the case off of it to clean out the heatsink, as there was some dust buildup. The fan is running fine as well, but I still receive overheating issues. The game runs at 80C+ all the time. I shouldn't be having any issues running this game whatsoever yet I do.

    No, vertical sync caps your frame rate to the refresh rate of your monitor, iirc, it will help with overheating. But yes, cleaning your card will certainly help too

    Not entirely sure, but it should play around 60 on medium with grass off, maybe on high.

    Heya, just ordered a stock Dell laptop and was hoping it'd be able to handle rust better than my iMac. The specs below are base specs (I didnt customize anything cause I can't afford it) but I wanna make sure I'm not just wasting money.

    *Inspiron 15 (3537) BOX Base
    CPU: 4th Gen intel Core i5-4200U processor (3M Cache, up to 2.6 GHz, UMA)
    RAM: 6GB Dual Channel DDR3L 1600MHz (4GBx1 + 2GBx1)
    GPU: Intel HD Graphics 4400 (this is my biggest concern haha)


    Also, I do play more than rust (team fortress 2, left 4 dead, portal, etc...) would this be okay for those games as well? Or should I really just cancel this order all together. Like I said, this is about as far as my finances can take me and I just mainly wanna make sure I'm not just wasting cash.

    It will be enough for rust but it won't play too well I don't think. Those Source engine games will play fine though, it's hard to find a computer that can't run a source engine game

    Hi, I have Rust It seems to run really bad with everything on lowest possible. I'm pretty sure my specs are better or equivalent to what is needed. Am I missing Something ?
    OS:Windows 8
    Processor: i5-3330 @ 3GHz
    GPU: NVIDIA GT620(This is the worst part of my PC)
    RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengance 1600MHz

    Going to buy my brother a cheap used PC so he can play with me, this sound like it will be able to run with min 30fps? Don't mind too much if it has to be minimum graphics settings so long as the game is playable.

    Edit: will be on a 1280x800 monitor.

    I wonder how many people are seeing issues that are due to their Internet connections rather than their CPU. I know if my net speeds drop (shit Surewest net) I start rubber banding and having the same issues some of these guys have.

    I'm playing on a laptop....

    Intel Core i5 dual core 2.4Ghz
    4Mb Ram
    Integrated video card

    My fps is low and I'm running on lowest settings but the game is playable.


    I'm going to be building a CPU starting this weekend and going for the next month as money frees up.

    Intel i5 4670K quad core @ 3.4Ghz
    8Mb Ram
    GeForce 660 GTX 2GB GPU
    Probably start with a 120GB SSD HD and upgrade later

    Should run pretty decent

    It will be enough for rust but it won't play too well I don't think. Those Source engine games will play fine though, it's hard to find a computer that can't run a source engine game
    Thanks for the reply! Hah my biggest concern is just running the game mostly, my iMac has a terrible graphics card and it can run rust and tf2, there's just a lot of lag even with a 3.06 processor and 12GB of ram. Not too big on the best graphics, just would like it to run a little more smoothly so I'm not aiming at something and I go to aim slightly right and miss my target due to chugging frame rate haha

    Again, thanks so much for the reply! :)

    Going to buy my brother a cheap used PC so he can play with me, this sound like it will be able to run with min 30fps? Don't mind too much if it has to be minimum graphics settings so long as the game is playable.

    ATI 5450 1GB
    AMD Athlon ll X2 3GHz
    4GB DDR3 RAM

    Edit: will be on a 1280x800 monitor.
    Yeah, it should play, but it's not gonna be pretty. It should play at around 45 at medium or so.

    Edited:

    I wonder how many people are seeing issues that are due to their Internet connections rather than their CPU. I know if my net speeds drop (shit Surewest net) I start rubber banding and having the same issues some of these guys have.

    I'm playing on a laptop....

    Intel Core i5 dual core 2.4Ghz
    4Mb Ram

    Good choice with the 4670k, I got one of those in my backup desktops. Overclocks comfortably to 4 GHz on a T4 cooler from Cooler Master, runs about 50-60 or so on heavy load. the 660 should be plenty as well, you should be able to max it no sweat there. As for the SSD I wouldn't recommend that for data storage, stick your OS on there and get a 750GB-1TB drive for data.
