Possible to boost my FPS on this laptop?
hi all,
First of all, I'm a non-literate computer guy. I really don't know much about it lol I live in Belgium (Europe) and i have an Acer Aspire 1350 for 5years now The problem is that i'm playing GW atm at 5~ FPS And I was wondering if it's possible to upgrade my laptop with a graphic card or more MB (currently 512)? If so what would be the best possible (&cheapest) thing to do? (except buying a new computer^^) Any help is appreciated

Aspire 1350 Series Specifications
Processor / Speed AMD Athlon XP-M 2000+ to 3000+ Core Logic Chipset VIA ProSavage KN400 RAM / Max RAM 256 or 512MB / 2GB Video Subsystem Integrated video subsystem with 64MB shared system RAM I found those specs on Acer's website. You can upgrade the RAM, but that will make very little difference. You can't upgrade your graphics card, and that's the thing limiting your FPS. Cheapest thing to do is to buy a new computer really. |

If you haven't already, make sure that you are running GW at the lowest quality setting.
If you already are, then you could get a small boost by increasing your RAM. You'd find that increasing the RAM would make the whole system faster, btw. Other than that, you can't upgrade the video (there is no "card"), so a new machine is in your future.

to get playable FPS you are going to need a new computer, there are a few tweaks here and there that you could try, but the reality is that even a 200% boost would still be 15 fps which is unplayable.... (and the best you can really hope for).
