Playing the Sims 3 again. For some reason, I like house building on it. It's also irritating the heck out of me because it's lagging so much. For anyone that talks computer:
The stupid game is a 32-bit piece of software. With most of the xpacs/stuff packs, it really begins to lag. I'm running 8Gigs worth of ram and a 64 bit quad core processor. However - I can't use all those resources to speed it up a bit so I don't spend twenty mintues loading screens (no kidding). Even sticking another RAM stick in won't do anything. Why? Because the game will only ever be able to run on 4Gig's worth of RAM, even if I do stick that 8Gig stick in I have somewhere and give my computer a lovely 16Gig's worth of memory. The amount of RAM will not speed it up.
There's a guy that is supposedly attempting to convert the game from 32 to 64 bits. If he does that, I will be bloody amazed to be honest.
Also tempted to load up SWTOR again and play through the new content. But if it's anything like the last expansion, I don't wanna be paying a tenner a month for it.
