hello i have a problem in my system the specs are
a standard dell optilex 745 case and motherboard
4gbddr2 ram
gigabyte geforce 210 1gb ddr3 graphics card
core 2 duo e4500
my computer has suddenly started to run games so much slower than before the framerate has dropped by so much and the computer lags the only thing i remember doing is setting my computer to a high overclock then reverting it but gpu-z reads the same HELP
 
a geforce 210 was never meant to run games. Period. Your CPU is also very low end. More than likely you're just seeing the affects of having an extremely low end system but if you messed with it trying to "overclock" such low end + outdated hardware I suppose you could have made it worse. Reset the bios/system to factory defaults

i could run mw3 on high with native res before and i did revert the overclock now mw3 runs on low
 


MW3 was a low end game. but as I said don't revert your attempt at overclocking... Factory reset everything. That's you're best chance to fix what you screwed up.

If you broke it you broke it. Trying to overclock one of the lowest end gpus ever made was. Well silly.
