I just inherited my dad's computer when he passed away, It's an I5 3.2 ghz running at 3.8 ghz 8 GB ram an amd radeon sapphire hd 5450 1gb ddr3 ram video card and an asus h8m1-e motherboard a terabyte and half of hard-drive space.
I could play GTA IV on my last system that was an I3 with an onboard intel graphics that shared vram. So I figured with this system I would have no issues running the game and higher then low settings with a decent frame-rate yet this is not the case I am getting between 9 and 12 frames a second and even GTA V with med settings gets 20 frames a second on this system.
It is playable like there is no lag there is no sound lag or distortion this is mainly curiosity.
When the game is loading i get 60 FPS the benchmarks look great but but the reported FPS is astonishing low at 9 to 12 FPS. If I compare the game on my old system looks like it's in slow motion compared to this one not really that dramatic but should give a clear picture could GTA IV's Benchmark be wrong?
Could the Amd Evolve app also be wrong?
If you don't know what that app is here's a link http://raptr.com/amd
In any case I look forward to responses I also ran the can you run it and got high marks something just doesn't make much sense.
I wonder if anyone can recommend a different program to check the FPS that would give me 3 independent sources and allow me to get a more accurate average FPS
