Re: Computer Slow Down ( Vista System)

I use to have a acer aspire 5600 (?) anyway, i would play dota with a couple buddies once awhile. dota = WC3 incase u didnt know. Every maybe 10-20 minutes i would get these horrible slow downs. frames would drop to 5 and sometimes the game would just freeze up for a few seconds. I never really pinpointed the problem but it seemed like a combo of a shitty intergrated vid card and poor cooling. Try to keep the fan area as clear as possible so no air is getting blocked. I bought a cheap usb laptop cooler that seemed to help a lil bit, but i would still get them everyonce awhile.
