Hey guys, I have recently built a new pc for a bit of light(ish) gaming and to use in the living room as a media pc. Everything physically works but I am not getting anywhere near the performance I was expecting. Are my expectations unrealistic or is there a problem somewhere I'm not picking up on? I want to be able to play recent games at 1080p on at least 'high' settings. I'm struggling with games that are several years old however and getting frame rate dips into the 20s in Tomb Raider (2013) and Spec Ops: The Line (2012).
My specs are;
I've included a log file I recorder in HWiNFO if that is any use. This was recorded while playing a check point in Spec Ops: The Line at 1920x1080 with max settings. The game was stuttering throughout.
I tried turning down the settings in Spec Ops to 1080p from very high to high with ambient occlusion off and this did nothing to improve the frame rate
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I really want to be happy in my decision to switch from console to PC gaming!
Thanks
