    Default Improving performances : More Ram

    Hello there.

    Im actually playng Darthmod witch gives you the opportunity to play whit 40 units stacks armies and 2x unit sizes (10.000 man vs 10.000). Of course when BIG battles occurs i experiment CPU lag (skipped animations but smoth camera). No video lag at all (the situation stay the same even whit low settings, im playng whit all ultra)
    I would like to increase my Ram to 8gb : do you think that would help?

    My spec :
    Phenom 2 x4 965
    Corsair value 4gb (2x2) ddr3 1333ghz
    hd5770 1gb sligtly oc
    Windows 7 64bit

    No. The game is till basically 32 bit and the cpu will only use 2gb max and the reast Windows resources, graphics settings, swap file, etc. and it will top out at 4gb, anyway.

    Even with sandy bridge you won`t get big fps increase, this game is bad optimized.
