How can I reduce work-load on my CPU? in General Discussion

    Hello brothers. I want to play some doto today if I overcome a small problem. The thing is I have a decent video-card but a pretty shitty CPU. Sometimes I have <10 fps during 10-man skirmishes. How can I improve the fps besides marrying a fat rich lady so she gives me money to buy a new pc?

      Close all other apps other than only steam and dota
      Start > Run > Msconfig > Startup. Disable everything then restart pc
      Start task manager, Find Explorer.exe then End process. > File > New task > Explorer.exe after finished playing

      I also have a potato pc and this is what I do, and also. overclock

            I don't know. It's must be an ancient motherboard. So it can't handle i7 I guess

              won't you try to lower quility. Currently I play it on i5 Notebook w/o graphic card but still get 40-50 FPS with lowest quality.
