Hey everybody,
I am playing Far Cry 3 on my pretty weak computer and I have HiAlgo Chill program, it shows my stats in-game (gpu and cpu use and idle time thingy), and my fps.
I've noticed something: when I'm not moving my mouse my idle time raises and my fps drops to ~10, but when i just start moving my mouse a tiny bit, even in circles, my idle time drops to 0 and my fps goes to ~30...
So my question is: can I do something that will make my gpu and cpu not go into idle time and receive max fps all the time?
These are the pics w/ 10 fps and w/ 30 fps:

Guys, you are using the wrong tool. The whole idea of HiAlgo CHILL is to drop frame rate, when the game is idle, in order to cool the computers.

What you need for weaker computers is HiAlgo SWITCH: it allows you to bump up frame rate when you want.

Note that both CHILL and SWITCH are...

Note that both CHILL and SWITCH are free and work for many games. But for Far Cry 3, there is actually a dedicated tool, HiAlgo BOOST for Far Cry 3. It is not free, but it does much more than SWITCH: it bumps frame up rate automatically (during activities), decreases stutter and lag...

HiAlgoFan,
yes, I saw that I'm using the wrong tool (idiot me) and later I discovered the FarCry3 tool and got it, everything works as a charm and thank you for your time, you can mark this as solved or done ;) (or I can do that, how? XD)
