Hi. I have an AMD FX4300 cpu overclocked to 400mhz and an Sapphire HD7770 GHZ graphics card. I have 4GB or ram. 1TB hardrive and the motherboard is Asus M5A78LMUSB3. My PSU is a 550 watts.
Certain games run well like Far Cry 3 on High settings but others struggle.
Tomraider runs well on medium apart from big open spaces where it lags.
Metro 2033 is very laggy and unplayable even on low settings. The same with Colonial Marines.
I used to have an AMD FX4100 and replaced it with the FX4300 but it did not make a difference.
I am using Windows 8. My ram does not get anywhere near full only half way and the CPU doesnt max out either. I have read the graphics card should easily cope and is a pretty good one. I would have thought the FX4300 cpu would have been ok too.
I have also updated the graphics drivers and my motherboard is also up to date.
I am not going to change over to intel so has anyone got any advice on why a lot of games are laggy and other games seem to be ok?
