Lightbulb Using 2 PSU has CLoD kicking it in high gear!

I'v put 2 PSU's on the PC. 500 and 550 watt.

1280-1024 60Hz

Pseudo

AA-x8

AEF-off

SSAO-on

VSYNC-ON

TG- original

The 1st video is with the CloD settings at Med.




The 2ed video is with the settings on Med/high. Med BD and Forest.




The 3ed video is with the settings on high/Very high with the new Nvidia 275.33-desktop-win7-winvista-64bit drivers.Very high-BD and Forest.




Althrough I can fly CLoD at the very high settings I'm going to put the forest at high or med.

With this set up seams the higher the settings the better the sim plays and looks.

This is how I have the PSU'S set up on the PC:

500 and 550 watt on the GPU.
550 watt on MOBO
500 watt on HD and CD/DVD player

After doing this the PC loads and run's faster. And CLoD plays and looks better on my PC than it ever has.

If you have a high end PC and CLod is not playing very well it could be your PSU.

I did not want to get a high Watt PSU when I had others not being used. As it turns out this may work better then getting one PSU with more watts.

This is the link to the page that tells how to do this:

The main thing that I didn't know was how to put the jumpers to turn on the PSU. The PSU that I add has a switch for off and on. And have it in the back of the PC on the out side With all the wires on the inside of the case other then the 110AC power cord.



If you need to or just want to add more watts to your PC and have some PSU's not being used this is a money saver.

PS: Its up to the sim'er to work with there video card to get CLoD or any other sim to work the best in there PC.
