Hyperspin is Lagging

[angryherbalist]

I installed HS and RL latest versions on a PC that was an i5 with 16gigs ram and onboard graphics.  OS was windows 7.  Installed onto the boot drive (C:\).  Hyperspin was Smooth as silk without any changes to any graphic/interface settings.  

 

I just setup on an i7 with 16 gigs ram and a PCIe Video Card (MSI i think) and windows 10.  So a better computer, right?  Besides the OS being different, new install was done onto a new 500tb WD Black drive.  This HD was not the OS drive/boot drive.  I had seen this recommendation before to prevent an OS crash from taking down the HS setup.    

 

Hyperspin is laggy and a bit unresponsive.  

 

Any thoughts on what could be causing a superior PC on running worse with HS?   Is it the secondary hard drive?  Is it Windows 10?   Is there something I could have missed?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hey

I have lagging issues too.. When I click MAME for example there is often a lengthy pause before the wheels load. I know my computer is slower but other systems pop up fine. I run the games off 2 WD external drives.... any way to speed loading?  I know that I have spyware software and antivirus running could it be that? How do I check what exactly is running (ctrl+alt+del)?? I have already disabled windows defender.  I checked mschonfig and tasks running.. I made sure to disable antivirus etc..

Well I may have solved this (at least for me).. I went into HyperHQ and noticed for the wheels I had it set to the highest quality with all layers etc. checked... I first reduced it to Lowest and it sped up greatly... I then set it to Medium which looks nice with minimal time to display things.  I am wondering what wheel check boxes could help reduce it further without taking away form the look?

As Demonseed mentioned, do some experimenting with the optimizer in HyperHQ. Also HyperSpin is more snappy when run off an SSD.
