At the end of the day, Zombie Survival Gamemode can be taxing on your computer. Once you start changing your settings and fine-tune your game, your performance should be better. Temember that your performance will significantly decrease on high population (60+ players) regardless what hardware you have.

	* Following all of these steps should at least let you have a smooth experience in Zombie Survival.		* Following all of these steps should at least let you have a smooth experience in Zombie Survival.

	In both Garry's Mod and Zombie Survival, performance can be on a case-to-case basis. However, regardless of what specs you have. Performance can already start to be plummeting and there are several reasons why (such as map optimization, game optimization, and much more). There is nothing you can do in terms of map optimization as it really depends on the mapper to optimize it.

			<dd>- Go to <b>Betas</b>,</dd>
			<dd>- Select <b>X86-64 - Chromium + 64-bit binaries</b>,</dd>
			<dd>- Close the menu and wait for the game to update.</dd>
			</dl>
			* <b>GET BETTER HARDWARE!</b> If worst comes to worst, you won't be able to run Garry's Mod with 120+ fps on very old/limited hardware. Even changing to Linux won't give you a good amount of FPS boost.

	Garry's Mod is a CPU-bound game, therefore it does not use your GPU fully. It really depends on your CPU along with other factors of performance. The more cores and speed the CPU has, the better performance it offers. There are other options as well that also improves your performance such as multicore rendering, graphics settings, and more. However, some of those options may not work as you may think of, simply because of this game is very old and ancient enough to run. However, you may use these settings in your autoexec.cfg (to find it, go to your Garry's Mod folder in your steamapps, garrysmod, and cfg, there you should find the autoexec.cfg in there, start editing it and also, make a backup just in case). ~~After that, type "-exec autoexec" on your Steam launch options for Garry's Mod. This way, it will execute the autoexec.cfg to the game.~~		<font color= blue>Garry's Mod</font> is a CPU-bound game, therefore it does not use your GPU fully.
