"N word" and "X word" are their names now?

Nevertheless, an occasionally good tip. Results WILL vary, however. When I used it, the framerate went up, but it caused a bad game stutter problem. On some other games/computers it works fine, though causes game crashes and sound distortion on others.

Do need this, i play on a shitty laptop. But i am getting a new computer soon

I'm also playing on a laptop but its not that shitty :-) My old one was the M15x with a build in gtx8800m and my current one is the M11x with its nvidia 335. The old one could handle Nex'es ultra settings quite ok and the new one can still pump out around 130fps in Nex'es demo1 at low settings. Thats quite ok for a ultra portable 11" netbook Smile

Nice , did have any issues with the 8800 overheating? I know someone with that exact same model

I just play on lowest settings, I'm running a 2007(?) Thinkpad SL500 (without the special graphics card)
So performance is shakey, but on lowest, I get 30fps consistently.
Will try setting the priority to -3 or -4 and will then report back.

Nope everything was fine... i just had minor nitpicks.. like a really really small part of the case on the backside cracked off, 5mm² maybe.. and that the m15x was really heavy and big. Thats were the m11x really shines Smile

Under Windows assigning Nexuiz/darkplaces to only one core (of 4) led to a much smoother gaming experience, the FPS stayed the same, but it felt like they tripled Wink.

This is probably because the Game is Single-threaded, but the Windows process manager switches between the cores, i guess similar to microlags with multigpu-systems.

Has anyone done this using taskset in Linux?
