    TPT only depends on a single core due to how it's written. Maybe your new computer has more cores but each are less powerful? idk ...

    Also if you use double sized screen mode you will get a significant fps drop too.

    Double size decreases fps?! I never knew...thats why bombs make me go to 25 fps. How much is the decrease exactly for double size roughly?

    If you are doing a laggy bomb it's not much at all and probably irrelevant, it only increases the time it takes to render stuff. Maybe I shouldn't have said "significant lag drop".

    I get 140fps vs 450fps on an empty screen, but I still use double size mode anyway and it's faster than any other computer i've had.

    I didn't make the fps limit 1000. Yeah I like double size mode since I have a 1920x1080 monitor
