Best regards.

My system does not have the Turbo boost 3.0
Not even sure if it has 2.0 to be honest.
I'd say give it a try (I would) and if it does not work?
Get rid of it.
Just make sure you have a restore point just to be safe.

Turbo Boost is just an optimization applet. It studies the user's habits, and the computer's response, and tries to coordinate efficiency... sort of like pre-fetch, it may work, and it may not...

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us...echnology.html

... it's nothing like the old "Turbo Boost" button on the 486DX2-66, where with it out, the computer ran at 33mHz, and with it in, at 66...

Okay a little updat on the program that Jeff gave a link to in the first post. IT WORKS!!!! I am now able to run Anvars reworked gwx mod with over 500 ships in the sea folder. And I also have ARB’s GUI installed. I set the priority of the shIII . exe to real-time and no problems.
I think that everybody should use this.

You start game by Commander or directly by sh.exe?

J0313 · 02-06-19, 12:32 AM

By commander. But it would work straight from the exe.. I am running SH4 in real-time also.

Hi,
I tested sh3 wac5 with priority on high and i do not see that the game runs better.
But not tested yet with priority set on real time wich is the max level ! Should that not be dangerous for the PC ?

Works okay with me. Use at your own risk.

I think where everybody will see a big difference is the ability to run large ram eating mods together. Like ARB’s GUI with MEP v6 and a large sea folder with 300 to 500 or so ships etc.
