get loads of ram and cpu power, a hot gfx card and put it on the lowest setting at like 640x480x16
there, fast as at like 800fps or something |

Think that resolution would be good for Half-Life²? |

| Obviously better hardware would do it, I'm not that stupid, I'm talking about software and such that might help me out. |

Just delete your registry.
Try this at your own risk. |

| overclocking isn't as easy as it sounds, and it won't do that much of a difference if you're not running the right hardware. |

| defrag your harddrive, get latest drivers for all your hardware, adjust game video settings for more performace/less detail or less performance/more detail unless you have loadsa £££ then get top of range hardware and adjust settings for more performance/more detail. |

I like pestpatrol
Make sure that autoupdating is turned off, If your playing a game and lets just say 1 hour into playing, software such as windows or anti-virus will start autoupdating itself causing lag.
I don't recommend overclocking, I found quirks after 6 months, like locking up on a loading screen, or windows wouldn't boot.
Also motherboard Chipset Drivers do a good boost, depending what chipset you have, get the appropiate update for it
To name a few chipsets there is
Intel
SiS
Via
NForce
AMD |
