Hey guys,
So I recently downloaded the game "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare", which is a fairly demanding game but I thought that with my PC I would be able to run it with no problems.

When I started playing I got crazy fps drops and stuttering, and I was just wondering do you think this problem is becuase of my low amount and low speed RAM? Do you think by upgrading to 16GB of higher speed RAM this problem will be solved?

Thanks for your help!

I'd say yes, but you need to monitor Ram usage when playing to be sure. But either way, 16GB is now the sweet spot for gaming,

Yeah, for a game like that and with a system like that I wouldn't be surprised if it is indeed your RAM that's holding you back. But, as mentioned in the previous reply, check the RAM usage while in-game, to see if it really is the problem.
