So I recently built a brand new computer (specs below) and, as you can probably tell, should be getting 60+ fps on most games. However, with EVERY game (even ones that aren't demanding like World of Warcraft) it suffers from severe frame-rate drops. I'm finally asking the internet myself...

Context; VaporX 1gig 256bit Phenom x4 black First question; Someone told me the quality of graphics were affect by the 256bit things not the 1gig thing. Is it true ? And if yes what does it mean exactly. I then thought maybe the 1gig vs 2gig will help display more animation at the same time...
