Playing The Horror with a dual core processor
Zaphod Beeblebrox:
I would imagine that part of your lag has to do with that graphics card, too. It's not that spectacular of a gaming card (even though it's labeled by Nvidia as one) as it's rather low-end now. As a friend once put it, "Never buy a card with LE or SE anywhere in the name. LE = lags on everything, and SE = sucks at everything."
What resolution are you playing in and what are your graphic settings in the game?
Roflganger:
When turning on anisotropic filtering yesterday in the Nvidia control panel, I came across an option to optimize multi CPU (not GPU) usage and while I haven't had any serious performance issues to begin with, I have to say it's made a noticeable difference.
Roflganger:
Yeah should have known it was just observer bias. Oh well - like I said, it's not like I had any performance issues anyway.
WerewolfOfTheWater:
I have a dual core and it runs just perfectly for me, rarely ever any lag in anything, even when I'm recording.
vikitty:
Thank you for the advice, everyone. I am trying it again with both processors and it is running smoothly s well, so I'm wondering if it was more the defrag that helped.
Will ponder a new graphics card. I've never updated my computer and I'm a bit cautious, both financially and technically.
