Low performance in some games - Games

I have a great computer, but for some reason, in a game like global agenda, I have low FPS no matter how my settings are. They can be maxed out or low, I will still have a low and choppy framerate. What can I do to fix this?

Maybe it's your internet.

Specs?

I dont think framerate has anything to do with internet, but I have a 25mbit connection, and its working as intended. [editline]05:27PM[/editline] Geforce 8800GTS 320mb 2.4ghz quad core processor 5gb of ram

it's probably the processor, maybe the game isn't multithreaded or whatever the term is

Hmm.. :/

There's a way to force it, but I have ATI and wouldn't have the same control panel shit as you

So I can - in some way - force the game to allow quadcore?

Yes.

Alright. I have absolutely no idea on how to do that, google does not bring up too many answers either.

What card do you have..? What tray tools, I just have CCC. I mean the thing you posted a screenshot of isn't even controlling your GPU, it is changing your registry.

Don't understand how it works, but if it works, it works.

I really wish I could do that.

[QUOTE=Oblivion470;19801924]I really wish I could do that.[/QUOTE] What OS do you have?

You are always going to get bad performance in some PC games. It is unavoidable.

You can force multi threading with Nvidia Control panel

[QUOTE=Themage;19802109]You can force multi threading with Nvidia Control panel[/QUOTE] Elaborate.

[QUOTE=Guided;19802144]Elaborate.[/QUOTE] Yeah because I didn't already elaborate a few posts above.

[QUOTE=bepassley;19802156]Yeah because I didn't already elaborate a few posts above.[/QUOTE] Didn't see your edit I just thought that was for ATi.

[QUOTE=Guided;19802176]Didn't see your edit I just thought that was for ATi.[/QUOTE] You can do it in the nvidia control panel too.

I looked through, but I can not find anything related to the processor.

All games support single core processing, a lot of games support dual core processing and a few support quad core processing. Minor games such as Dwarf Fortress don't support dual core, and even some major games like Global Agenda don't support quad cores. It's a shame.
