I mainly play Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat. CS usually runs fine on regular maps, but my fps drop down to the teens and even below 10 on custom maps with wide open spaces. DOD lags horribly almost all the time. So what do I need to run these games smoothly?
I have an off the shelf VAIO with the original parts.
My specs are:
2002 Sony VAIO PCV-rx740
Processor-- AMD Athlon XP 1600+ (1.4 GHz)
RAM installed-- 512 MB DDR SDRAM (256MB x 2)
Cache size - type-- 256 KB L2 cache
Hard drive-- 60 GB Standard
The only upgrades I've done is a new 512MB stick of ram, putting me up to like 730MB ram total.
What else would I need to atleast run this game smoothly?
Thanks.
