Micro-Stutters

it should. "disable visual themes" will just prevent Windows visual themes altering the program's window.

I bought today a nem Mobo and 8GB of faster RAM, DDR3. Performance improve in CloD, of course. I tested with Aero/VM/Indexing and after disable all this settings.

Nothing happens regards "microstutters" or FPS. All the same: texture and land detail in highest settings = more texture streaming = no so great performance. Land detail = medium and/or texture = high, fluid gameplay.

I'm - because i'm a "brick" - still waiting some real magic tweak guide to optimize the crap W7...

Bye!

P.S. MAYBE Adonys have a more "fanboy" definition of microstutters in CloD... I'm a little more "whinner" regards this...

Try Gamebooster, Gboost or similar free software to unload processes.

Used all: no gain in games.

The game runs GREAT here, but I can't blame W7 tweaks for bad performance with everything maxed. Just having fun with this guy who said that runs with all settings in max and had no microstutters...

Wonderland!

right, I'm lying just to torment you, mate

Guys, with the amount of different PC components and the still somewhat unstable nature of the sim, it's expected to have different experiences with similar tweaks.

Don't fret over it, something that works well for me might not have any tangible difference for someone else or might even give worse results, etc

As I posted in the recent thread on the new beta Nvidia drivers (280.19), stuttering is much reduced on my system, I would say to the point where performance is not really an issue anymore. I was greatly surprised by this, as I imagined the problem to reside more on the game side than the driver side of things- but these drivers have really helped. I've even tested things out on some modified terrain texture maps which are twice the size of the default ones- and still all is well. I recommend Nvidia users who are struggling with performance to investigate these drivers, and also to post their thoughts in the forum.
