I believe I've seen this problem on an old laptop used for eq. iirc the slowdown is speedstep kicking in and throttling down your laptop. The bag gui causes enough cpu usage to put you over that cutoff and not be throttled. To test, try running a cpu intensive program in the background while playing and see if the lag is gone. http://www.fossiltoys.com/cpuload.html is a quick way to do it. I've found in another laptop, removing the all the mpci-e cards resulted in a slowdown fix for me. GL |
Amazing post, thank you! Have used the link you suggested at varying %'s and have had success. Will continue to experiment with the different %s but this has definitely fixed the issue I was having. I'll follow up on this in a few days to confirm after I've put it through some real lag bait.
Thank you everyone who responded with help. It was much appreciated!
