Currently I am running WinXP Home edition, with 2GB RAM, an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2GHz processor, and an ATI Radeon X800 XL GPU.
I know games are programmed to utilize whatever remaining CPU you have, but whenever I play games like Doom 3, Metal Gear Solid 2, or other high quality games it's quite choppy. I know my GPU and processor is able to handle almost every game, plus some.
I know this isn't a RAM issue, because MGS2 is only utilizing about 60,000KBs at peak usage. And a total of 414MB out of 2458MB (With FireFox open (Uses around 50,000KBs)).
Here is a list of processes I have running in the background and their peak RAM usage, just about every one of them is either unable to be ended, or required for stability:
How can I get my games to not run choppy anymore? Also I have up-to-date drivers.
