heya, kind of unrelated but has anyone tried moving their pagefile to a RAM drive? like ppl with more than 8gb since SINS can't use more than 4gb? if so what was the performance difference? I ran sins on a 4.6ghz 2500k the other day and got 15fps late game. Considering either setting up a RAM drive or a 240gb SSD with the pagefile on it.
this game definitely favours high clockspeed CPUs. The strength of your i7 lies in the fact its a quadcore, this game only addresses 2 cores, only one of which processes data. You can upgrade to a really fast dual core but I wouldn't bother. On an overclocked i5-2500k to 4.7ghz, I can barely crank out 15-40 FPS. So I doubt any technology we have now can make a difference. The graphics are not very intensive, even late game. With Hundreds of ships I get like 15% GPU usage on a GTX 570.&nbs
