Hello.
I have a computer which is not at all that good, but it meets the system requirements for a lot of games that I like to play.
There is however one problem, I seem to get lagspikes in probably every game that I play. Both modern games and ultra classic games.
I can play Skyrim on a decent 30fps and it can drop to 12fps for a few seconds.
Same story for grid 2, godfather 2 etc.
Then we have older games like let's say mafia. I can play it at a constant 50+ fps but it would drop to 25-ish for a few seconds.
So shortly said, pretty much anything CPU-intensive kicks my ass with lagspikes.
I think it's my CPU since my video card and ram are good enough for most of the games I play.
Specs:
Intel Pentium 4 3.00ghz
2GB DDR2 ram
MSI Geforce 210 1GB silent
Windows 7 Home Premium
And ofcourse I don't need to play the latest games, but I do want to get rid of the lagspikes in games that run smoothly at 30+fps.
I was thinking it's the CPU since it's pretty ancient and has been in my rig for years.
Any thoughts?
