Re: Windows Vista and RAm

said by Margolis:


ok, what are your system specs? what kind of cpu? what video card? and what resolution?

More memory will not automatically give you higher fps. It will make the game run smoother when things get hairy though. But if you are having fps issues, it could be the cpu, or video card.
Ok could you please tell me where I find such information to post?
I do know that my card is a ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO with 512MB dedicated memory. And it is at 1440x900 resolution.

the video card is a big problem. the 2600 is not good enough to run at 1440x900 at a very high framerate. I would guess maybe 30fps tops, and dipping down into the teens if there is anything going on. And with a video card that old, I would guess that your cpu is also a bottleneck.

To find out your cpu, go to "control panel" and "system"

Ok it says "Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz"

And, which vid card would you recommend? I can not spend a lot of money on it...perhaps between $100-$200
