    Games go too fast
    « on: July 30, 2015, 12:51:13 PM »
    I went on vacation and brought my windows 7 laptop. I start playing metal gear rising and binding of isaac rebirth, first it starts of a bit laggy but otherwise fine. Then the the madness begins. Later when playing, the lag is gone but then later sometimes it speeds up. Then it gets worse and worse. Which now its fast almost all the time. For some reason its happening on my laptop but I never got this on my windows 8. Thanks in advance.

      Minimum Specs for game:

      CPU: 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Quad or AMD Phenom X4 or better.

      It looks like your GPU might be borderline for it under minimum specs, but the CPU requirement calls for a 4 core CPU and you only have 2 cores.

      I'd look for a better system to play this game from or chose a game that is a better pairing for this system. The system must be pumping out tons of heat trying to keep cool with that game.
