Hey Tom's Hardware! This is my first post. I recently upgraded my card from an 8800GT to a GTX 560 (non-ti). I ran BF3, just to notice that in BF3, I would get around 20fps, and 30 if I was lucky. I then tried to set the settings to low, but the FPS was also around 20. Here are my spec's
Q6600@3.2gHz
EVGA Gtx 560
4GB DDR2 Ram
I am running the game on 1440x900. I also OC'd my cpu for the first time because I read that it was recommended for this type of upgrade. (Yes, I got an aftermarket cooler) I am thinking maybe my CPU is still bottlenecking my GPU, or maybe I did something wrong while overclocking. I ran Prime95 for 10 hours and I got no errors. If I got a new monitor and played on a higher resolution, would this help increase my FPS? Should I post information on how I over clocked? Any tips would be great!
