Suggestions, Tips, Windows 11 for a Better PZ Performance

[DarthQuell]

Hey y'all, a couple of questions regarding the system requirements for PZ.

My laptop specs are the following:

Now, I can run PZ pretty good. Animal models aren't very detailed, though; spots get blurred together, zebra stripes appear brown, and reptiles (crocs) don't appear very scaly.

I'd love a new PC/laptop, but I don't wanna spend too much on one (like, nothing above a few hundred). Is there any y'all suggest?

Also, I've been told that, of I upgrade to Windows 11, maybe it'll work better. If that's the case, should I just upgrade to Windows 11?

I play planet zoo on laptop with windows 11 since a while ago and the performance it's almost the same, but yes it's a little bit better than Windows 10, personally i recommend you upgrade to the windows

Hmm I'm not sure if windows 11 will make much a difference although I am currently running Windows 11 compared to my old laptop which ran windows 10 and suffered the renown low resolution textures bug.

Now actual specs wise, the processor is a little low but obviously past minimum requirements , ram is good , however I usually pinpoint graphic rendering to the graphics card. I can't see the card info here , (you can find it by typing dxdiag into the search bar and find the rendering tab).

For laptop recommendations that cheap? Wow I'm not sure because good laptops can run into the thousands ( uk money so idk the conversion). For use of my currency then - £800 would be the minimum for new laptops with good graphics cards

No problem. I got mine at a steal: $300, no OS, but since I know how to install them it wasn't a big deal. But, yeah, no prob; I'll upgrade, then, even if the performance is only slightly better. Something is something
