Hey,
I recently got myself an ati hd 7770 gpu. But it feels like the games are performing lower than they should. I play most games at 1280 x 1024 res and at high to ultra the fps are around 18-25 (For eg Tomb Raider and NFS Most Wanted 2012).
Now My Ram is 4Gb out of which 3Gb is available, but i hv doubts on my processor (the amd phenom x3 8450) that it may be bottlenecking the performance.
Is that normal for my system? Should i overclock my cpu to get a better performance and if so how much inrease will i be looking at? And i'd rather stick to the air cooling (cooler master fan) that is already in pc so how far is the safe limit to oc it?
Also quite weirdly, the system seems to run Crysis 2 at 45+ fps most of the time. Is that normal too?, since i expected Crysis 2 to be quite a pc resource intensive game.
(I've posted this question in the "system" section with no satisfactory answer, so i thought id try this section as a last hope. Please no comments on getting a newer system as im all out of budget. Any suggestions on simple tweaking to improve fps by 5-7 will be enough. So far the tip i hv is to change from 32 bit windows to 64 bit windows for better ram usage)
Thanks
