This is low, you say? :hmm: So mine is stone-era one.

It's not the slowest PC ever, but these days it's rather far behind. Until recently I only had 768MB; minimal for running SH3 + GWX and rather painful. It's about 3 years old now.
I'm a bit of an eye-candy addict, so I can't bear to turn down the particle density or the anti-aliasing.
I'm curious - how well does the game run on your machine & what is it? If it's a lot worse than mine how do you manage to play? :hmm:
For me, the framerate goes from smooth (60-80fps) to very sluggish (<20). The thing is, when other games run at around 20fps they are a little jerky but still playable (Flight Simulator would be one example), but when SH3 gets down to 20fps it's incredibly laggy, sluggish and rather unplayable. Quite different! I don't quite understand what causes it or how to fix it. But I will try lowering the texture resolution of the crew when I get time.
