Run WoW Faster

[Scoops]

Guys this is NOTHING new. This has been around since early 98'. It's called Ping Boosting, and if you have ever rented or ran a Half-life series or Source series server You would know what this is. It basically changes the system timings. Making things more responsive. Its used to add to a server's FPS ratings, which make a server faster. There are micro programs out that do the exact same thing, without having to run WMP.

I happen to have a CS:S Server fps booster already.... didn't know it would work for WoW....

same. this all depends on your computers specs...

hahaha, i tried and i went from 45+fps to 25+
didnt work

[numblocke]

hmm... i allways play with the mediaplayer on^^
well i have around 300 fps so i dont think it whuld effect that mutch

far be it from me to call you a liar, but I run a quad sli setup with max'd gfx @ 1920x1440 and only manage to pull 125 fps, because the game limits it, how exactly do you manage to get more than double that?

[suicidity]

bad brian might be thinking of latency. Because it is impossible to get higher fps than your monitor's refresh rate. And last I checked, there was no monitor with a 300+ refresh rate.

i tested this on my computer-it gave WoW a small boost.
then i decided to test it on another computer at my house and it drastically increased WoW performance the specs of the second P.C i tested it on.

intel celeron 3.06Ghz cpu
512MB ram
ATI radeon 9250 128MB vid card
xp home sp2

(thats all i can recall of it and i dont have time to go and start it up to check for the rest)

didn't work for me =(

I didn't really notice a difference, maybe a second on the NPC load time, but that was it really. My pc isn't that good, only 900 RAM currently, I had 1.2 but i got a new motherboard and it didn't like the old RAM

But I'm going to put on the highest WoW settings for everything, distance and that, as my computer goes at around 7fps with everything maxed, and then I'll edit this post. Let you see if there's a difference.

EDIT: Bumped up to 13fps, which is possibly even playable. Thanks for bringing this to the site : D It also brought my latency down by 30.

P.S Something weird happened when i first logged in, it was amazingly smooth, everything was fast as hell, so i looked at me latency bar, 0ms and 1000fps, so wow. Yeah.. i iz waz confuzed

This seems to me like a hit and miss thing, it works for some and not for others.
it might just be that there werent a lot of people using the internet at the time of your first test. Then somehow the user rate jumped and then it lagged the internet up.

Guess it works cause WoW receives less priority over WMP and thus making it run "faster"
In raids i usually CTRL+Alt+del > processes >Wow.exe > set priority > Low (Dunno why but Low makes my pc run faster than High setting)

"Because it is impossible to get higher fps than your monitor's refresh rate."
I believe what you meant to say was that it's impossible to see fps higher than your refresh rate, but quite normally fps is higher than your monitor's refresh rate. I run ~105fps in shatt with a 75Hz refresh rate.
