I bought a pavilion laptop somedays ago.
AMD A-10 5750 Quad core with radeon 8610G discrete class integrated graphics.
I am well aware of the difference between an apu and dedicated graphics and the memory and so on.
It runs most of my online games brilliantly. I tried planetside 2 but it runs at 27 fps on medium and 10 fps in heavy battle. My friend xps laptop runs it on medium - high and get 25-40 fps in heavy battle... as you can see in the link my graphics card supposed to be better so that puts gpu out of the guestion. Except that his dedicated memory runs at 800 mhz.

I found that ps2 is very cpu intensive and he has a first gen i7 processor ( hyper threading 4 cores like 8 and so on ), but when i run planetside i make sure its on realtime priority, im on performance mode and all cores are unparked and maxing out at 2.5-2.9 ghz each ( yet ps2 only takes 30% usage ) .-. and i run razors game booster with that.
My gpu depends on my ram for its 768 mb of dedicated memory if i am not mistaken... and i have 1x4gb+1x2gb ddr3l ram at 667 mhz while he has 1x4gb at 1000-1333 mhz ( not sure ).
So if i upgrade my ram to 2x4gb 1333 mhz ddr3 ( thats max supported by the a10 ), will this increase my cpu performance as well as increase the memory speed of my gpu to 1333 mhz also?
And will i be able to get the performance he is getting?
And considering that his 1 ram stick is 1333 , shouldn't that make me equal to him since i'm dual channnel at 667 mhz? Or does the gfx use 1 stick to transfer memory at 667?
AND ( does RAM speed bottleneck my cpu/gpu/both?
Note : i have overclocked my gfx card core speed to 1000 mhz and the difference is 4-8 fps. I do not plan on overclocking cpu in future.
