Computer Help Options

[Canadian Viper]

Hello,

I just was wondering if there are any way to help get a better game play out of my computer. I have read and done all the cod tweaks listed on the forums, but still find the game a little laggy. Maybe I need to get a better vid card or more system memory. The system I have is:



Intel Pentium 4 3.4Ghz Dual Core

Asus P5LD2 Pentium 4 Motherboard

Intel Pentium 4 Colling Fan

1 GiG of DDR2 ram

250 Gig Hard Drive X 2

256 mb Nvidia Pci-e video card



This is from the bill but not sure about video card in system tray the property for the video comes up Geforce 6500.



I have a cable conection and do not see any spikes on the lago meter.



Any help will be apreciated.



Thanks,



CV

Actually, laggy may very well depend on what you may have running in the background on your comp while you play. Stuff like;-
messengers [msn/yahoo etc]
anti-virus updates
microsoft windows updates
or... you forgot to turn off 10 projects running at the same time in photoshop
and everyones favourite.... turn off your automatic downloader for xxx sites

Another reason may be your connection- your ISP may be having server probs too.

Balance your game options with your computer's 'juice'. If you don't have a mega-powerful computer then don't crank up all the game enhancing options. Personally I find a 800x600 screen very pleasing to view. Sound options also have a fairly 'big' impact on used game resources.
