Hi,
My son is complaining that movement is stuttering and lagging at times when he is playing online gaming. He also says he gets messages saying low fps. We are on BT Infinity and plugged into router by ethernet not wifi so don't think network is the issue.
I am wondering if it is sensible at all to replace any of the current components or he needs to save / wait for birthday money to buy a brand new one.
Current setup is:
• Asus P5B Deluxe motherboard
• Core 2 Duo E6400 2.13GHz
• 8GB Crucial DDR2 memory
• Asus ENGT240 Silent graphics card
• 2 x Samsung HD501LJ 500GB 7,200rpm 16MB cache, disks (plus some other old disks used for internal backup)
• Windows 7
So all pretty old and not sure if new graphics card or SSD would help. And is the motherboard compatible with an SSD? I am assuming if I put in an SDD I would have C: on SSD to specd up widows and apps. Is that correct?
Thanks
