CPU Usage, Graphics Lag, Audio Crashes, Can't play more than one consecutive game!

[vSft]

Hi,

Here is my issue;

When ever i play it destroys my computer, the CPU usage sky rockets to like 70% from the usual 5-10%.

I get mad graphics lag sometimes only like 10 FPS.

Then at times the audio starts to static due to the high CPU load

Sometimes i dont get the above problems, but if i play a second game straight after without restarting my computer i get the above issues.

Also if i am to shut off hon and reload it, i get the same issues;


Well the first thing to look at is the specification of my hardware;

i have Intel i7 Q720 @ 1.60ghz, 6.00gb of ram, Ati Mobility Raedon 5470 1gb card.

Resolution i run is 1920 x 1200 i have tried different resolutions to resolve the issue but to no effect.

Do i suffer the above problems at any other times ?

No, never.

I run graphics intensive rendering and video editing on my machine, i also run a magnitude of applications at once without any issue.

I am running W7 64bit Premium

Fully updated drivers and 100% legit software.

Your computer does not meet the system requirements, specifically the core speed of your processor is too low.

Are you serious it's an i7, i could even run hon with no problems on my gf's machine and that was a sempron ! 1.8ghz

Clockspeed doesn't mean anything between architectures. i7's have improved memory management and add new math operations (that hon doesn't use), but semprons are capable of doing more mathematical operations per clockcycle than an i7. The number of cores doesn't matter either. HoN only uses one.
