I need assistance with a specific game.

Hi everyone, I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to ask, but I could really need your assistance. I have a good-spec CPU, an Intel i5 13500, and a GPU, a 4070.

I play a game called Maplestory; it's an old game that essentially runs on RAM, the CPU, and other hardware. Some of the newer Intel 12 and 13 generation processors don't seem to work well with the game; in my opinion, older processors perform better and AMD works great.

Could you please provide me with some advice on how to perhaps disable some cores or any other tips? Maybe try designing the game CPU to function like an AMD X3D or similar to the old Intel CPUs, if you can afford to do so.

You can experiment with the number of cores. Since older games like Maplestory tend to benefit from single-threaded performance, using 2 or 4 cores might be ideal. This method will ensure that Maplestory doesn't try to use more cores than it can handle, reducing potential stutter or poor performance.

Thanks for your reply!

Find the option for CPU Core Management. If necessary, turn off the E-cores (Efficient Cores) and retain solely the P-cores (Performance Cores). Reduce the number of threads by adjusting Hyper-Threading if necessary.

Hey! I can understand the frustration with older games not running optimally on newer hardware. It seems like Maplestory might not be optimized for the newer Intel cores, which could be causing issues. Disabling some cores could potentially help, but I'd suggest trying to tweak your CPU affinity settings first and testing different core combinations to find what works best. Additionally, you might want to experiment with lowering some CPU-intensive background processes or using software like "Game Mode" in Windows to prioritize performance for Maplestory. Finally, if it's a recurring issue, sometimes downgrading BIOS versions can help if the latest one causes compatibility problems with older games.
