i upgraded my 6870 1GB to a 7950 3GB
and now the performance looks the same or worse. lags happening and not feeling the (big) improvement, feels like i still got the same card with lags added.

Motherboard:Asrock Fatal1ty P67
Memory: 8GB Vengeance 1866
CPU: i5 2310 (2.9GHZ to 3.2GHZ at boost) Note that this is a locked CPU
500 Watts power suppyly wich i never had a problem with.
CPU temperature stays under 70 celcius wich is normal

first i thought its the CPU but now i dotn know what it is...
and yes i tried removing the graphic card drivers completely and also used AMD removal tool to remove everything and then installed newest driver wich is 13.9 now i think.

Thanks in advance.

What is the model of your power supply? Any chance you could provide either the model name/number or (more specifically) the number of amps available on the 12V rail(s)?
