Why am I lagging so bad all of a sudden?

It's hard to explain...my character feels...'heavy'. He can't move as sharply as he once could. This only kicks in on occasion.

 

FYI - I'm on a new computer (even the old Captain Caveman PC could handle JK:A easily) I have a cable connection with no problems with my ISP and there are no real CPU draining programs running in the background.

 

I don't understand it...

 

Also, I play Siege...and it gets seriously bad on the Korriban map...

 

Hope someone can help :)

1) How is your new video card. I hope you remember to buy one.

2) Make sure your video card driver is up to date.

3) Check your game settings, you may have to turn down the graphics a bit.

4) You character have been munching on cheetos too much.

New computer means practically nothing really. For example, some "new" computers come with graphics cards that are integrated to the motherboard (such as Intel GMA) which use your system RAM instead of having its own. Combine this with the often low RAM that comes with most computers by default, and you end with poor performance even in older games.

 

Anyway, you should first identify if it's a connection problem or hardware problem. As in, play single player and see if it lags there.
