Ok, I read the forums about CPUs not needing to read 100% all the time because of the ps2 design. But 10-20% with my frames at 30-40 seems odd. Is their anyway to make it run 100% or is 1/10th of my CPU being used normal for a CPU intensive program? If thats the case how would upgrading my cpu help me at all?
Other problem im having is in Okami at 30-40fps at the beginning when your learning how to break barrels. It feels like im crawling, it runs so slow I cant play. So I used to hacks, ok now I get 60-70fps, but for some strange reason it still runs like im playing at 10-20 fps. Its only when im looking at anything big, or that has any kind of art to it. In the grass I run smoothly.
Im hoping these 2 things can be helped by someone, otherwise its time to try to OC this CPU.
