Hey guys,
So, I have a HP Pavilion p6 series and I would like to upgrade it's system to be able to run a higher performance for gaming. Here's the link to it's Specifications. The aim here is for me to get the best performance out of this PC that I can without having to buy a whole new computer.
I've restarted my whole system recently, defraged it, got rid of background applications that aren't needed, removed un-wanted programs, and downloaded Razer Game Booster for best performance. I've also allocated more RAM to games that I play. Anything else I can do within the system?
And for my components - Playing games like DayZ & COD and hoping to play more games in the future, my CPU seems to be able to run it according to this. However my Graphics Card seems to struggle so I have to play low graphics and even then I sit on 20-25 FPS.
What's a good graphics card that's not to expensive that will run well with this PC, and should I upgrade my CPU?
My friend mentioned the Geforce 750 ti... Good choice?
What else is there... Oh yeah!
I had to clean the fans out recently and my PC makes a bit of a sound, but not as much as it used to before the clean. God, it was running bad!
CPUID HWMonitor was telling me both my Processer and Graphics Card were running close and above 100 c!
Now my AMD A8-5500 runs at about 50-60 c, and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 620 runs at 50-60 as well.
Is that good? Can you upgrade your fans in your system or does that require a new PC?
There's my detailed information, prepare your expertise and prove to me you know what you're doing and can help me out. The more in detail explanations will help me out all the better.
Thanks guys/girls!
