How to boost my fps?

claytkfx600 · Jun 19, 2014

Hello lads! I have had this pc for a while now and it runs ok but it doesn't do what I need it to.. I use it as a gaming computer and it doesn't run that smoothly FPS wise. Here are my specs:

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3210M CPU @ 2.50GHz

RAM: 8.00 GB

System Type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor

Display Adaptor: AMD Radeon HD 7600M Series

If you want any other information tell me

Well your issue is the GPU, which sadly can't be changed when it comes to laptops (or it's very expensive). If you want more performance without lowering the settings, you'll need a new PC.

Buy a gaming system. Laptops aren't really designed for gaming, and are very limited on the ability to upgrade.

Replacing my Graphics Processing Unit isn't dead impossible is it? This computer I have quite a bond to this pc, I am quite happy to pay atleast $200.

What is the exact model of your laptop?

easiest solution - lower the resolution on your games from 1080 to 900. You won't notice a difference, and your FPS will jump big time.

Mr gir :

Assassin's Creed Black Flag, Rust and Watch dogs.

Thanks I will try this out.

claytkfx600 :

Sorry, it's not upgradeable. As Calvin3200 said, try lowering the resolution (and the other settings). If that won't help, you need a new PC.

No problem

This is the part 1 of a series you should watch before building a PC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPIXAtNGGCw

Thanks, it might be a while till I build one.. So could you possibly suggest any other things to boost FPS? If so that would be a great help.

Well there's really not much you can do other than lower the resolution and the settings. Some games also have mods that help them run better (Skyrim, for example).
