Hello everyone!
Recently, I have spent a bit of money to get a few minor upgrades on my PC so I could run my games with higher fps and better graphics. My reference point was to be able to run Borderlands 2 completely maxed out with at least 60 fps. Everything worked fine and I was super happy. Time has passed and now, I tried to play borderlands again. I have got a pretty bad surprise when I saw how it was a complete flippin' mess when I tried to play again. I am having barely 30-40 fps and I am suspecting my hard drive to be the problem in all of this. My computer has an extremely slow startup, my specs are fine and I am having the same problem in pretty much every game that the environment is big and in environments where a lot is going on at the same time (Planetside 2 and GTA V!!)...
Here are my specs :
AMD Radeon R9 270x
AMD FX-4300 (Quad core processor with 3.80 GHz)
8GB of RAM
Windows 8 64 bit
ST3500418AS ATA 500 GB (Hard drive)
I have tried clearing up background apps, cleaning up a bit my hardware (old files and stuff), I am careful about viruses and such, in other words, I would please like to know if it's time for me to change something in my computer or if theres is something I can fix in it and such (you get the point ).
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,
Reys
