    Hello People!
    Do you want to make your games run better?
    I've got some few tweaks and programs you can use, i think the most of you already now this programs ;) .. but not everyone does!

    First 1: Are you playing Source games like Half Life 2? or Counterstrike Source?
    its actually is possible to make the games run, but dont except that you can play the games like on your desktop or laptop with 4 gb ram :p
    First of all go to steam and open the games window, and right click on the Source game you play and select Properties. Then you press Select launch options, and write: -dxlevel 70

    CS:S
    After that download this config: http://www.pureoverclock.com/download-3.html
    And put it into: C:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/YOUR STEAM ACC NAME!/counter-strike source/cstrike/cfg

    HALF-LIFE2
    Coming Soon!



    Number 2: Programs!
    http://www.iobit.com/gamebooster.html - run this program, to set your computer into "gaming mode". This program turns alot of services off, or shut down some programs that not is needed when playing.

    http://www.gmabooster.com/ - With this program you can overclock the Intel GMA 950 that is in the most netbooks.

    If you got windows 7: http://www.powerplan7.com/ also download that program, with that you can set your pc in Power Saver mod or Super Performance mod or Balanced.


    More will soon come, no power left! :x

    Thanks for the info!

    Personally I have a semi decent Quad Core system with a decent graphics card for my gaming. The AAO is pretty much used for the internet and my office work. Nevertheless I reckon the info you've shared will be used and appreciated by many (even if they don't mention it).
