AndrewzDesign · Nov 22, 2013

Hello

Intel Core 2 Duo @ 3.00GHz
5Gb ram
Asus GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost 2Gb

FarCry 3 / AC IV Black Flag / Diablo 3 / BF4

im getting same fps 15-30 no mater what ressolution i set or high / low setting

can i fix this some how

or i need to upgrade something? CPU? More RAM?

Is Vsync on?

Onus · Nov 22, 2013

That suggests a CPU bottleneck. Are you able to OC your CPU? If you can, that may help, or may indicate how much of an upgrade you need.

Deuce65 · Nov 22, 2013

Far Cry 3 is a fairly CPU intensive game and your CPU isn't very powerful. If there is anyway you can drop a core 2 quad in there (about 30 dollars used on ebay) you will see substantial improvement.

Vsync Off.

Thx i''ll try to OC CPU with this tut

p.s.

with what software i can run good benchmark?

AndrewzDesign · Nov 23, 2013

boosted CPU to 3.8GHz

CPU temp 100C

is taht safe? i'm planing to buy better cooler. should i set back to 3GHz till then?

You'd definitely want an aftermarket cooler for OC'ing, 100C is extremely bad territory and that's when the CPU would begin shutting down

Set it back for now, and OC after getting a new cooler

Onus · Nov 24, 2013

100C is NOT safe.
Back it down to 3.4GHz. Right now you're just looking to see if it makes a difference. If it does, you'll know an upgrade is probably justified.

AndrewzDesign · Nov 26, 2013

Putted some thermal grease on the CPU.
Temp is 70-80C while playing games and 40-50C on windows.

Is it possible to OC even more with proper cooler and what should be the limit? Now running @ 3.8GHz

In the future planing to buy i5 CPU

Onus · Nov 26, 2013

Are your FPS notably better?
Was there no thermal paste on it before? Your temps are still high. I don't think 80C is dangerously unsafe, but I wouldn't want any of my CPUs running that hot. If you just have the Intel stock cooler on it, a $30 Xigmatek Gaia or Hyper212 will probably knock 15C off that.

AndrewzDesign · Nov 26, 2013

At some games FPS improved to 60 and at some still the same.

Will my mainboard (gigabyte ep 35-ds3) bottleneck i5 CPU?
What about socket? Will it fit?

Maybe is no point buying new CPU because my mainboard is to old?
What about maynboard bottleneck to my GPU? Or is more because of CPU?

Thanks for the answers

Onus · Nov 26, 2013

Your motherboard is Socket 775, three generations old. I do not believe that there is a worthwhile upgrade for it. The money would be better put toward a new rig.

AndrewzDesign · Nov 27, 2013

Thanks a lot. No more questions.
Will buy new cooler and try to overclock little bit more for now.
