Greetings!
I've got a few questions regarding my current system. To understand my requests you might want to hear the purposes which I wish to fullfill with it, and a problem I've encountered.
- I currently am unable to play BF3 for longer than 15 minutes (this could be due to overheating), and when playing I can't play at the settings I wish to play at (medium at most, for a smooth experience). I wish to up this to high, and/or a good amount of frames per second.
- I also am unable to watch 1080p60fps clips on youtube, which, on a 1920x1080 resolution, is something I'd really like to see happen.
- I've previously had some trouble with my Intel Core's cooling, yet have been able to resolve this to almost normal. I still am in doubt if, because of the passive cooling and overall airflow in my case, I might have an 'unfriendly' enviroment for my hardware in terms of temperature. Although to me, the temperature does not feel hight or extreme.
-Will upgrading my HD5770 to an active cooling HD6870 resolve any, if not all, of these issues?
- I would love to keep the cost for a solution as low as possible ( at least under 100 euro's or 112 dollars), please keep this in mind
Specifications:
Motherboard: Gigabyte H55M-UD2H s1156
Processor: Intel Core I3-530 Core i3
RAM: 2x Apacer DIMM DDR3 1333Mhz 2GB
RAM: 2x Adata DDR3 1333Mhz 4GB
Videocard: Ati Radeon HD5770 1Gb Silten (non active cooling!)
Hard drive: Samsung 103SJ 1 TB
Power supply : Gigabyte GZ-M2/X1/HKC 7060 (?)
Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster XL2270HD
If you have any suggestions, hardware upgrade tips, or anything else that might help me on my quest to quality 1080p 'streamage' and smooth BF3'ing, I do really wish you'd share!
In advance, thank you very much for reading. I hope you will be able to help! I appreciate the read!
