TS2: Speed of game question.. Archived from groups: alt.games.the-sims () Hi All, I was wondering. I now have my pc running smooth and tip top, but with all those downloads from Modthesims2 and TSR, the game starts to get sluggish. The specs of my pc...

CPU. THE CPU WILL TURN THE CLOCKSPEED DOWN SO THAT IT DOESN'T BURN ITSELF UP. WITH THE REDUCED CLOCK SPEED, THE GAME WON'T BE PLAYABLE. IF YOU CLEAN THE HEATSINK, THE TEMPS WILL GO DOWN, THE CPU WILL RETURN TO NORMAL SPEED, AND YOUR GAME MIGHT BE PLAYBABLE....

more latest files DX 10 ver 4.10.0000.5515 DX10 wont give much of speed but rather more on eye candies. Speed is up to the game developer on how much they work on DX10 enhancement to increase performance or increase visual effects or both @ThreatDown...

performance. The only thing I'd really want to improve is the speed of the game; on a large lot, with lots of sims, the game lags. Of course, I hear all this stories about "I've got a new videocard and it all looks so much better!" I'm beginning to...

requirement is so great. The game runs fine mostly, but occasionally, when I am around alot of these models or am in a highly detailed area, or there are alot of particle effects on scren, the game will jerk a little. My question is, is this cause the SDRam,...

was thinking of installing 1 VelociRaptor in Raid 0 for just my games (with an option of connecting another VelociRaptor in Raid later) so that I can start improving the graphics quality/speed. Therefore, the question is: will having a set up like this (1...

are significantly old (<2Ghz P4, <Athlon XP 2100+), the CPU will become your main source of bottleneck. Thanks. They're P4 2.4 GHz procesors...1 GIG of RAM. You should be aware that a 2.4 is listed as the minimum CPU speed for your game (I checked). Thats...
