yo i just gotta new amd board with a 1.91 ghz processor a geforce 8400 gs and 2 gigs of ram....now this game runs pretty good as far as speed but why is it so choppy i need to know if there is a way to make smoother gameplay without sacrificing quality...now i have riva tuner but i was told npure is better because its all software overclocking though i cant find it anywhere so....any feedback would be great

already see the problems; the processor and graphics card. the 8400GS is not a gaming card. also, the processor is on the sluggish side.

if you want a new card, get a 9600GT or an ATi HD3870; you will also need a better power supply like the corsair 450VX. do NOT get a cheap power supply, spend the money on a quality unit.

as for the processor, i dunno what socket type you have. download cpu-z and run it. it will tell you what socket your board is.

ps2: v7 scph-39001 - independence exploit - hdloader 0.8c - maxtor 300gb hdd
(+[__]%) psp slim ta-085v1: 6.60 PRO B10
wii (powered by bootmii/priiloader): 4.1u - d2x v10beta53-alt (base 56) - configurable usb loader v70r51/devolution r188 - wd scorpio black 7200rpm 320gig w/ ams venus ds2 enclosure

got a whole lot more to list . . .

the XFX 9600GT runs for $125 on newegg. and most HD3870's run around $150 now.

there are no other alternatives. the 8400GS is a mainstream card. mostly used for dual displays. if you just bought it, return the 8400GS.

download and run cpu-z. it'll tell you what processor is in it currently, and what socket type it is.

if this maching was going to be gaming, you'd been better off with an intel build. amd's aren't bad, but intel's can overclock like crazy, even on the cheapest processor.
