theyre not nicer than my computer...
anyway, the reason MX Sim may lag on your computer, but not Dirt or whatever, may be for the fact that Codemasters (or insert multi-million dollar publisher here) has the resources to test their software on multiple machines, and optimize it to make it run as smoothly as possible. there are also several "tricks" that programmers use to make the game as lightweight as possible while still having tons of eye candy that you can see. JLV on the other hand doesnt have a ton of time, resources, or manpower to do it all. i bet there is some things he could optimize or change that would make the game run smoother on some computers, but its probably not worth it for him. however i will say this. the game isnt super-graphically intense, however the physics seem to make computers work terribly hard. when, or if, he gets to code the software to use multiple core processors then that will make the game run a lot better for some who have dual or triple cores but are lower Ghz. more cores = more processing power = calculations are done faster = less lag.
maybe JLV can chime in. i sure dont know as much as him about programming!
