You are not exactly running a gaming grade system. That CPU is the kind you would use in an office PC, and the GPU is the lowest you can go and hope to do any gaming.

hmmm, you think the cpu is bottlenecking my GPU?

I doubt it, they are both very under-powered parts. Your system is just weak. You cannot run a gaming benchmark on that system and expect to get a high score.

i see thanks, do you recomend a new cpu? if so which one?

Edit: i do more rendering than gaming xD

I would recommend a new CPU and GPU. What is your motherboard and what can you afford to spend on upgrades?

lsung1 · Oct 3, 2013

mobo: P8H61-mx

i can spend upto $200-250 max

I am honestly not sure what you could do in that price range... You could put an i5-2500k in that motherboard, but those are getting harder to find as they are a couple of generations old now..

Edit: Found a 2500k, but it is a little over your budget. http://www.amazon.com/Intel-i5-2500K-Quad-Core-Processor-Cache/dp/B004EBUXHQ

what about a fx 6300 with a new am3+ mobo?

That would be a pretty good upgrade if you can find a good enough mobo in your price range along with the CPU.
