[M8triX]

i have a AMD XP 2000 + 256 MB DDR RAM .. i was woundering if more ram would do it .. but i would like to see some post.

more ram sounds good to me

you can try OCing too if you haven't already done that.

It's amazing how hardcore we are when we have rigs that place us in the 99th percentile of PCs...and it's still not enough!!!!

I was throwing out some magazines tonight and took a Dell ad out of a Dec. '97 issue of Yahoo Internet Life. The top system was:

P2-300
64MB RAM
8.4GB HD
19" monitor
Matrox Millennium II 8MB video
32X CD-ROM
SB AWE64 audio
Altec ACS-490 speakers
USR 56K WinModem
MS Office 97 SBE
Win95/IE 4
Mouse

The price? $3399!!!!

4-1/2 years ago, if you told people what we'd be whining about today as being "too slow", they'd just want to smack you!

Sell it and buy a Radeon 9700, that's the only sure fire way I can think of. 256MB of system ram should be enough...

Oh and btw, what in the hell are you playing that you need a higher framerate than a Ti 4600 can provide?

Must've found some high polygon virtual pr0n that I haven't.

Ummm..lemme see.. more FPS..... turn off AA, turn off Aniso..... that'll be the most you can hope for.

Run your games @ 640x480 in 16bit colour and turn all detail settings to lowest. You'll get hundreds of FPS in most games but they will look like ****.

Seriously though, why is a Ti4600 not fast enough for you?

You might be mistaking page file swapping (due to lack of RAM) for choppy frames. 256MB ought to be enough for most games though...
