Hello community!
I ma be new to this forum, but ST:BC has been entertaining me for many years. I have many mods for it currently including nanoFX and KM, BC scripts, etc. My goal is to be able to play this without getting the massive lag, and NOT turn down the settings!
YEs, i am a computer nerd of sorts and while my computer if far from the best i do know what i am doing if i need to upgrade. I have been thinking about getting a new video card to replace my 8800 GT for a little while however when i was looking into a little overclocking to test how far the current card would go, i came across a very strange problem. The "gpu useage" on the EVGA precision monitor program does not go up AT ALL when playing hardcore BC when its "lagging". All of the work is put on the CPU, which i am sure is the main problem that is making it lag, maybe i do not even need to upgrade!
Anyway, in short, what is the best way to get star trek bridge commander to use my GPU correctly instead of offloading everything to the cpu?
