I recently downloaded the new demo for Myst V and found my system lacking in speed. Basically I want to tweak my hardware to optimize everything (already tweaked OS X), and am wondering what anyone else has to say on this. My system is:
Gigabit Ethernet G4
Mercury Extreme 1.5Ghz CPU (Excellent btw)
1GB RAM
60GB Hard Drive
40GB Hard Drive
Radeon 8500 Mac Edition
OS 10.3.9
I talked with ATI tech support, and they suggested that with my 200-Watt stock power source, I might need to take out the second hard drive, TV card, etc. They also suggested taking out some of the RAM (I was thinking of deinterleaving it too). I can't afford a better power source just yet, so I have to optimize what I have. Any thoughts anyone?
