The reason I think it can be fixed is because my CPU is only at 60-70% usage in big battles. I want it all used. That information should have been stated in the original post. That said, it's even more of a reason to think that the problem would be GPU related, since it has no dedicated GPU — something considered necessary for modern gaming. Nonetheless, you could try using a program such as ThrottleStop to see if it addresses the issue at all. | ||

try to do the same with your HD XXXX settings. there should be a Performance/Balanced/Quality setting somewhere in graphics proprieties. edit: how much memory (RAM) did you assign to the video card?. play with that setting in bios. | ||

Grab Hwinfo ( www.hwinfo.com ) log your CPU core clock speeds through battle. iGPU clock speeds would be good too - you're using integrated graphics, right? If not, log your dedicated GPU clock speeds. Absolutely nobody but a guy telling me my CPU is poo? I know it sucks, that's why I want help. The reason I think it can be fixed is because my CPU is only at 60-70% usage in big battles. I want it all used. Tough luck, sc2 is heavily focused on one thread so on an 8-core CPU you only see about ~16% utilization (one core maxed, plus the extras on a second core like game sound processing). You're "lucky" to have a dual core and not have a ton of CPU resources idle. I checked before though and it seems your CPU has a really low power limit (~7.5w between CPU and iGPU) so i'm wondering if it's just throttling to like 800mhz or what's actually going on there. I don't think that it's supposed to throttle below CPU base clock speeds via power limiting, but i might be wrong. There's definitely the potential for either iGPU throttling to very low speeds in certain situations, or temperature throttling killing your cpu/igpu frequencies | ||

You can pretty much compare the size of an air cooler to the size of the radiator on the CLC, and that's how their performance will compare. Those very large air coolers with a two-tower design can compete with something like Corsair H100. All of that depends on the fans. The CLCs are sold with fans that can run at ridiculous speeds. That's the only reason they look good in benchmarks. If you put similar fans onto the air coolers, they are not that different. You might need to get more fresh air into the case for this to be true, but you will save money compared to buying a CLC, so can invest some into case fans. You can also try to find a used air cooler as they don't go bad with age because there's no pump or anything. | ||

Very few people with Celeron are going to try to maximize the performance like you, so help is going to be very hard to find. Almost anywhere you ask for assistance people will say "buy a corvette" if you want it to perform like one. This is why hobbyists are hobbyists, they do things that are difficult. Your hobby seems to be getting the maximum performance out of non-gaming hardware. That's fine, but try not to feel upset when nobody can help you. I don't think there's anything to help really, unless my post was correct and his parts are throttling.. and there is also some way to fix that | ||

random ex: in power saving mode setting, intel processors work at 100%, but that 100% is with a 0.7v voltage and 1000MHz or 800MHz limit/cap. (for reference: an i5 overclocked at ~4.4GHz works at ~1.25v). | ||
