I buyed a new e5800,i placed it in my computer and putted thermal grease on it and reinstalled win 7 64-bit.A bit latter i tryed my favorite game(Star Conflict,,,this game was the reason for the new cpu)and i got 20 fps but with my 15 years old e2200 i got 55 fps.The game was the on the same version.And i tested it with the old cpu and with the new on the same day so the other components aren't the "criminals". Then why?

2x1 Gb DDR2 800 Mhz Ram

E2200(15 years old) vs E5800(New) CPU

Radeon HD 48xx GPU

360 W PSU

D41TY Motherboard

Game:Star Conflict
I don't want to hear anything about "Upgrade your old shitty pc"
I thinking about 2x2 Gb ram.

E2200 2x2,2 Ghz (Wolfdale)
65 nm
FSB 800 Mhz
TDP 65 W
L2 Cache 1 MB

E5800 2x3,2 Ghz (Wolfdale)
45 nm
FSB 800 Mhz
TDP 65 W
L2 Cache 2 MB
 
Solution
Better than before, but you should look around again. In practically every country the i3 4320 or 6100 will be about the same price but far better for most games.


1) The E2200 is not 15 years old, it's just about 10
2) That "new" chip is still 10 years old, it is NOT new at all! At this point a raspberry PI is likely faster for most things!
3) There's a reason why people will say "Upgrade your old shitty pc", at this point DDR2 ram and that cpu are more expensive than just buying a ivy bridge+gtx650 ! (which is about 50x better overall)

The discrepancy is likely just due to a mistake on your part, most likely you never actually got that FPS at your current settings. Try resetting the settings and seeing if that helps
 
I'm going to buy X4 A10-7870k APU (R7 series)with wraith cooler
2x4 Gb 2400 Mhz DDR3 ram
And FM2A68M-HD+ Motherboard
And i will buy some cheap extra GPU next to it.
 


Very bad idea! The 7870K costs more than the i3 6100 yet is much slower for games if you are getting a discrete GPU (and about the same using just integrated)
 
No i tought about it and i will buy
Fx-6300 with Deepcool Gammax 300
R7 360 OC 2Gb GDDR5
And 16 Gb ram beacuse i want to play with Space Engineers
And i choose these beacuse these are the best what i can buy in my region in budget
