I over clocked the system listed in my sig from 3.2ghz to 3.6ghz....about a year ago. It made no discernible difference.
Just guessing? I think that anybody running a four core at 3.2ghz or faster,
oughta be able to swing this sim reasonably. I don't know why I believe this, as my system has never run this sim with out stuttering.
I think the MysticPuma has a good idea here.
C'mon Piledriver....
