think i can do same for my triple core? i get slow motion lag in groups, especially with wizards

Setup:
AMD Anthlon II x3 440 rana 3.2Ghz
Nvidia Gtx 460 hawk twin frozr
8Gb DDR 2 ram

my rig should be perfectly fine for this game... i mean i play crisis maxed with maxed AA in control panel
i tried putting Nvidia control panel to default but still no luck


It should work for you. It sounds like the same problem. Hope it helps

Phenom II x4 920 - 2.8ghz

I am disabling 2 of the cores. Which shouldn't make it faster, but it makes a huge difference. Now I can play in a game with 3 wizards (highest settings) and have no problem. Before, anytime there was any casting (on lowest settings) everything would move super slow.




This is for quad cores. I dont know how to fix it for dual-core


ive been doing this since day one, same processer a little faster although. if i had known no one else knew about this i would have posted a long time ago, i do this with all games i get really low fps for no reason. seems many games dont have quad core support.

Still need to test it, but i'm sure it will help! Only have real issues with 3 or 4 player games and lots of aoe's but still, my rig should be handling that and it's not.

AH WAIT, it does make sense :D

some processors scale their speed with the amount of cores being used. Less cores used = more GHz on the used ones. This is for cooling reasons.

So basically disable all but 1-2 cores and it'll run on max speed :)

good tip!


920s don't have any sort of "turbo" mode.
