Dragon-6 Posted July 1, 2000 Share Posted July 1, 2000 Howdy Folks, I love this game. The small scenarios run smoothly on my system, but medium and larger games "skip" in execution. The clock skips from 11, 43 ...60 ect. When this happens the 60 sec turn takes a lot longer than a miuite to "play." I believe that I need to upgade my sysetem to better run CM. My current system: 333mx Celeron, 32 RAM, 2 GB gard drive ATI Rago Pro 8mb graphics card What would be the best way to upgarde, more RAM? Bigger Video card? I'd really want to make only the minimum neccesssary upgardes to get big games in CM to run smoothly. Thanks, Tom 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTed Posted July 1, 2000 Share Posted July 1, 2000 Tom, I'm no expert, but I have done a bit of research in this area. Your Celeron should be fine, but you definitely want to upgrade your graphics card to at least 16 mb and your RAM to at least 128. With that, you'll notice a huge improvement. I hope that helps.

Dragon-6 Posted July 2, 2000 Author Share Posted July 2, 2000 Thanks for the info. I'll probably not be able to upgrade RAM and my video card at the same time. Which would you recommend I start with. Thanks, Tom 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morthomme Posted July 2, 2000 Share Posted July 2, 2000 video card first, try a tnt2 ultra 32 mb 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dschugaschwili Posted July 3, 2000 Share Posted July 3, 2000 I don't know if upgrading only the graphics card will make a dent in larger scenarios since they tend to require more RAM as well. In your case all three parts may become a bottleneck in larger scenarios... Dschugaschwili 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
