Hi all,
I've recently got back into PC gaming and am looking to upgrade. I've been playing things like Dawn of War 2 (old I know) which the frame rate plummets on when there are explosions and things. I'm also playing the new Total War : Rome II and while I know there have been some bugs with that graphically looking to be fixed in an upcoming patch it looks fairly horrendous on my system and gets laggy as well. I'm also wanting to get the new X: Rebirth game coming out towards the end of the year. I'm thinking I might need to buy a new graphics card but am unsure if this is the best approach to take. Here's what I'm running :
Windows 7 64 bit
Intel Core i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20GHz (2 cores)
8GB of RAM
ATI Radeon HD 5570
Primary Resolution : 1980x1080
PSU : Channel Well Technology Model DSAII450S-6
Max combined wattage 450W
My computer is an Advent Centurion Ci 5231
Any ideas of what I should be looking to improve and what to buy? Thanks very much!
