In game I get an fps of 20-30 and a ping of 80-100 when I solo queue. When I play 5's with my friends we use skype to chat and my fps drops to 10-20 and my ping increases to 100-150. Is there anything I can do to make my game run faster n smoother? I don't really know how to check my computer specs but this is what I can gather:
900 2.20 GHz
4.00 GB RAM
64-bit OS

Thanks for any and all help.

1st of all dont use skype if you play and oyu have fps problems.
Skype eats ALOT of memory and CPU usage. Try going Ventrillo instead.

Ping is not an issue for you. If you have lags coz of it write or phone your ISP about the fact.
If you play on EU you will get either 30-50 ping or 100-200 one. Depends if you were connected by Riot system to the US swap server or not.

If you are in US, than ping 80-100 isnt something BAD for a LoL.

fps ingame - 1st you can do is lower the settings. Set your FPS to "BENCHMARK" not stable or any other just benchmark.

And again dont use skype on a system with 2.2Ghz single core (probably?)

If all fails... it leaves you will decreasing the resolution you play on.

REMOVE shadows ingame. They are (often) the most demanding part of rendering and the least important for how the game looks.

Skype doesn't really affect anything other than your ping. If you only have a single core at 2.2GHz it might slow things down a little tho.

Looks like something for nabs who know very little about games.

Agreed.

What GPU do you have?

Just because I haven't cared to look at my specs before playing LoL doesn't mean I'm a "nab". The only reason I'm asking now is because even with the lowest possible graphics settings I get low fps and high ping. I have a ****py computer in the firstplace.

Dude, not aimed at you --.--

I was talking about the program linked above my comment.


You sure you have everything at lowest and shadows off?

Yeah, but it will still help.

Even if it's 3-5 extra FPS, it's still free FPS - and they didn't even say what GPU they had in their OP - so I doubt they are very good with computers to begin with.

Do they write what they do anywhere? I seriously doubt that that program actually does something useful for those who are good with computers.
