Possible Way To Run EQ Better On Your Computer

This is worth a bump. For those dealing with lag, please make sure your CPU affinity in the ini file is set to -1.

Also - if you have a NVIDIA GPU, I would recommend going to the control panel and clicking on "manage 3d settings, then "Program setting" go down to "power management mode" and choose "prefer maximum performance"

Is this still a thing? I don't see CPU affinity in the ini file--I see clientcore and it is set to -1

CPUAffinity/ClientCore

The January 19th 2022 Patch CPU affinity has changed to ClientCore:

- Renamed the "CPUAffinity" setting to "ClientCore" in the eqclient.ini file. The new default has been set to "-1" which allows the client to run on any and multiple cores. Setting a number other than the default will still force the client to run on a specific core.

In this EQ forum post, klanderso, EQ Developer, explains setting ClientCore. At this point, it might be best to leave it alone and let Windows handle using the least busy core(s) to run your EQ clients.
