So here's the thing, I'm running on a low-end system right now, matter of fact I'm bottle-necking hard. I have:
Intel Core 2 Duo (Dual Core) 6400 @ 2.1 Ghz
1Gb Memory of DDr2 RAM
AMD Radeon 7850 XFX Dual Fan Eddition with 2Gb RAM
I know this is a bad bottle neck, I just bought some RAM and a FX-4350 (Planning to OC)along with a board , but here's my problem, I copied all of the settings I had and did a test to see what gets more frames, Windows 7 or Mint 17 C. As far as I know Mint doesn't use as much resouces and is light weight right? I get a mere 20 FPS less then I did...... Any thoughts why?
Things I have done:
Got recent drivers for my card,
Shut all other programs off/ idle'd them.
Should I just stick to Windows? Please no biased OS wars, just looking for a answer. Thanks in advance.
