    RAM Overclock

    For TF2, it looks like overclocking your RAM is the best way to gain FPS.

    I took mine from 800MHz to 920MHz (just to see what would happen :P) and it more than doubled my FPS from ~70 to 150+ :D

    Also it's stable so far and completed half an hour of memtest without a hitch. :D


    Also I have no idea how it increased by so much, but it did.

    Yeah I think more likely it is just another weird problem with my motherboard that was fucking the fps in the first place, which this has somehow fixed :P

    Cool Dark, I might give this a go with my RAM (2x Kingston KVR800D2N6/2G ValueRAM / 2GB / 800MHz / PC6400 DDR2 / 240pin Dimm / Computer Memory)
    Do you have a guide or a link to a guide? Cheers :)


    P.S. I'm crap with hardware... and software tbh, although I did install the ram myself ^^

    Re: RAM Overclock

    Keep it 1:1 and if needed, set the latency to 2T or 3T.

    Choke isn't a setting problem, it's a network problem.

  17. Reag My name is an anagram for a reason

    Re: RAM Overclock

    You guys are lucky, I have to put up with drops from 120/50 to 20/15 fps.

    Bottlenecked systems are so cool, when they don't bottleneck.

    Recently (i.e. past week) doing that in any source game (even L4D) makes the mouse sensitivity go crazy for me :(
