What resolution are you running your screen at? DX9 right? Almost guaranteed it's your video card.

Looking at benchmarks you need to run at a resolution of 1366x768 or lower to get 30+ fps. And that may not even be constant. I imagine to get a nice smooth game you'd have to run at 1024x768 on low.

That is what i am running 1366x768 on all low and its at around 17-20 fps... would i be able to run bioshock infinite?

also why does the geforce expeirience keep giving suggestions on far cry 3 that i can't handle?

you can run bioshock infinite too but at lowest settings
try changing the resolution to 640*480(lowest)to get 45 fps I know u wouldn't like it but that way you can increase your fps and yeah put on all the graphics to low that should speed it up
