I have an i3 2100 and geforce 9600 gso. and if i were to upgrade either part, would i be able to stream at a decent quality @ low ingame settings? 9600 is fine for SC2. Streaming is 100% dependent on CPU, so if you wanted to stream, you'd have to upgrade that. Keep in mind you'd want to upgrade to a quad core i5 (probably a 2400). That would be the cheapest option, atleast. | ||

If it matters, he has both a C: drive and a D: drive. Separated into about 128GB/256. I'm not sure why, but he does. Does it make a diff? | ||

If you're talking about formatting a secondary drive than go into disk management, right click the drive and select format. Do I need the original windows disc? or will any random windows cd key and disc work if its legit? I have mine from somewhere but I'm not sure where his is. Do I have to go into the bios and set optical drive as primary boot? Thanks Skyr. | ||

Any disc will work but of course you'd want to use a Home Premium disc if the product key is for Home Premium. | ||

I have a capture card (kinda like this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815122010 ) I have an rf box (takes composite in and outputs coaxial). I'd like to put that capture card into my 2nd rig (quad core q6600) and use it as a streaming slave. I've streamed using the capture card before, using the rf box and a psp. I'd like to find a way to split my hdmi output from my 6870 from my first rig, and send it to both my main monitor and some sort of hdmi->composite convertor. I stream at a bitrate of 550 (audio included) and at a resolution about 840x525, is this ok? will the composite part of my setup ruin the quality? Anyone have a similar setup? Should I get an hdmi capture card? | ||

Short answer: Not really Long answer: I've heard about defraggler being "better" than the default Windows defragger, personally I don't know that this is much of a difference. The fact is, in Windows XP/Vista regular defragging is key to better PC performance and load times, especially if you have a laptop with a 5400RPM drive. But in Windows 7 the file system has been greatly revamped, hard drive fragmentation is much less likely. I used my Windows 7 laptop for about 6 months after getting it, when I went to defrag I think the drive fragmentation was at like 3%. So doing it in 7 will help a little, but not much. I don't like CCleaner. Actually I think the idea of any program that automatically goes through your registry and deletes stuff is a really bad idea. It's not really going to greatly "speed up" anything. Registry database as a file is actually pretty small relative, and so there really is no need to delete stuff from the registry. Doing so only increases the likelihood of deleting something necessary or important. There's a reason many programs leave behind their reg keys when you uninstall them, mostly because there's no reason to remove them and doing so risks corruption. If you want to "speed up" your PC and keep it clean: do Windows updates regularly, if it's XP or Vista regularly run a defrag program, uninstall software you aren't using, regularly clear your temp directories and java cache (I prefer to completely disable java's caching ability for security reasons), disable startup programs, and occationally do a virus clean. If you really feel the need to eek out more performance from Windows, you can try to to disable some of the services you are unlikely to use such as Parental Controls or the Windows Media Service. But at this point you are essentially splitting hairs, it will free up some RAM but not a lot. Security reasons are a much more common reason to disable services like these. | ||

Disabling programs/processes and such can make a difference but other than that doing a full format is the only thing I've really found working but obviously that's a bit of a pain and should be a last resort. On xp, depending on how much ram you have and how you use the computer, I find that FreeRAM XP Pro could really help. | ||

i7-2670QM @ 2,20 GHz GeForce GT 540M 6 GB DDR3-SDRAM Besides SC2, I'll probably mostly be playing older games (I prefer old school games tbh), only other "new" game I plan on playing is D3. My goal is to play SC2 on medium without problems, I don't care that much about graphics, but I dislike the way low looks. I have been reading about 540M quite a bit, both on these forums and on sites like notebookcheck. I've noticed there are some mixed opinions about this video card. Can anyone who uses the 540M tell me how well it does on medium? | ||
