Also remember that overclocking is not always the best solutions, but optimizing for the game you are playing..


For example

BF2, run at medium, with distance view at 98%

there is not much difference between medium high settings that
would warrant to play an online game at high..

The results at running BF2 high would be the following
1. super long load times for all the textures etc
2. more video lag on effects such as the artillary, choppers over your head and big explosions.

And for all who are listening
Here is the number one BF2 tweaks you might not be aware of

PUNK BUSTER

Punk buster by default in BF2 scans your hard drive every 8 seconds
to see if everything is in check. This is the default setting and can be
changed to 500

open your bf2 console when logged into a server
press "~"

type pb_sleep 500

Now your hard drive is being scanned only once per 8.x minutes
and you will notice improved performance and less "apparent lag"


then save your new settings

pb_writecfg

this is 100% safe with punkbuster, and will NOT cause any problems with Punkbuster thinking you are a cheater. Punkbuster even recommends this on their website
