Didn't know exactly where to put this. General is only for free online games, it's not "EXACTLY" technical, so...

anyways, I've been playing EVE Online. Awesome game, beautiful graphics. However my computer meets minimum requirements for the game, yet dosen't exceed them. I think my game would run a little better, if I could turn down the graphics, or similiar options. Is there a way to do this?

Change the desktop resolution. Put more cache ram on your hard drive. Any more help would require info on your operating system, as I have not played this game.

When looking at a game requirement, double them to get about what you need for decent performance. Triple them if you want the game to run flawlessly.

If you are at the minimum requirement, turn every graphic option off to the minimum then try to get some of them higher if you feel like you can get a little more from your machine.

Yeh, I finally noticed what I was doing. My keyboard can be set up so keys do "alternate things" when a light is lit. The light was lit, and the esc. key exits the program when that light is lit.
