Game performance using WindowsBlinds...
Monday, January 13, 2003 by Mitleid | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Just a question overall in regards to high-end gaming while having a WindowsBlinds theme activated; am I goint to take a huge performace hit? I play games like Mafia, Warcraft III, Age of Mythology, etc. Computer is a brand new P4 3 gig, so I haven't noticed any critical slowdowns of any kind, but I just wanted to get some input from anyone in regards to overall resources. Thanks. Take care.

I have a Pentium4 2.0Ghz and 256MB and I play Mafia,Commandos,Quake or anything with my Windowblinds running and till the moment i cant blame Windowblinds about any bad performance, I had a few errors and I confirm why or which program make it, but any of them was vinculated to Windowblinds3.5. Good Luck and take care

I haven't noticed a diffrence either and I run a 700mhz AMD Athlon, 768MB Ram, 32mb VDram, But I think what keeps it going is the Ram .. But with my system the way it is until I upgrade I haven't seen a diffrence and I even run other stuff in the background while I play the games. Like UT2003, Delta Force, etc.

Some games call exploder in their menus, etc...so LiteSTEP 'can' be a problem...
