Throwing money on issue is not solution. It’s avoiding problem that not everyone can afford to do. > [@Destiny\_Corrupted](#): > > Unless you limit your FPS EVE by default has interval settings on. I assume that OP just used one of predefined settings and they don’t change interval options. So fps limit should be on. > [@Destiny\_Corrupted](#): > > You’re literally using the weakest GPU option that was available a _decade_ ago. Time to upgrade. Yet, it is better than minimal requirements on CCP website… [https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GeForce-8600-GT-vs-Intel-HD-3000-Mobile-V2-13-GHz/m7659vsm7647](https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GeForce-8600-GT-vs-Intel-HD-3000-Mobile-V2-13-GHz/m7659vsm7647) If EVE worked before, hardware is not a issue. Minimal requirements didn’t changed for some time. ---

> [@Lis\_Torin](#): > > Throwing money on issue is not solution. It can be. Many problems have solutions which aren’t free to implement. For example: the transmission on my old ass car is dead. So there are two solutions: pay a mechanic to fix it ($$$$) and continue driving an old ass, sub-standard vehicle… or buy a new car ($$$$). > [@Lis\_Torin](#): > > It’s avoiding problem that not everyone can afford to do. No, that’s not “avoiding the problem”. Avoiding the problem would be not doing anything about it. 🙄 ---

> [@Destiny\_Corrupted](#): > > substandard experience Then you have to high standards and on top of that don’t know meaning of “minimal hardware requirements”. ---

Since those haven’t been updated in exactly five years, despite numerous changes and additions to the game engine, they might no longer represent reality, and very likely _don’t_. ---

The game overall might seem slow right up until that time you must react which makes you feel left behind. ---
