Hello all! I just recently built my first gaming computer, and i had a couple of questions i was hoping someone would be able to help me out with. I spent about $1200 on this system and from what i have read i was under then impression that i would be able to play just about any game quite well except maybe crysis 3 and other games with extreme graphics. I've download a couple games and I am not completely happy with the performance thus far.
When playing bioshock infinite on all ultra graphics, the fps will range in between 30-60 and gets quite choppy, windows even notifies me that my computer is running slow and i should change my color settings. When playing day z (arma 2 mod) my fps will drop to as low as 20 on large serves and even will drop to 45 on small servers just when zombies are on my screen (on normal graphic settings)
I understand that a $1200 build isn't top of the line, but i was expecting a little better performance out of. Anyways, here is the parts list:
-Intel I5 3570 3.4Ghz
-ASRock Z77 Extreme4 Motherboard
-EVGA GTX 760 (NVIDIA)
-Corsair 650w power supply
-Samsung 840 pro series 128 gb ssd
-WD Blue 1TB HDD
-Coolermaster Hyper 212 cpu fan
-Nzxt 410 mid size case
-8gb corsair vengence ram
-obviously a dvd drive
My main question is, based on these compenents, are my results normal/expected? or might there be something wrong with the system? I download windows 7 onto the ssd aswell as a few games and i have not done any overclocking or tweaking of the motherboard, cpu, and gpu. Thank you in advance for the help!
