I'm not a tech person, so excuse me if I seem completely ignorant. Currently I have an odd issue.
I currently have an ATI Radeon HD 5570 card: http://www.amd.com/us/products/desktop/graphics/ati-radeon-hd-5000/hd-5570/Pages/hd-5570-overview.aspx
This is the PC I have: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02063037&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&site=null&product=4182092&key=null
I've been playing a few random games, and while I can achieve high graphical quality, my frame rate will be okay or terrible. The most recent game I've been playing is Fable 3, and if I turn it up to highest settings, I get about 10-14 frames per second. Unfortunately I haven't played many recent PC games. The last one I played was the Duke Nukem Forever demo, and in that I received quite a bit of FPS lag.
Additionally, this is my 3DMark score.
3DMark Score - P1243
Graphics Score - 1091
Physics Score - 6268
Combined Score - 1079
GraphicsTest1 - 5 FPS
GraphicsTest2 - 5 FPS
GraphicsTest3 - 6 FPS
GraphicsTest4 - 3 FPS
PhysicsTest - 19 FPS
CombinedTest - 5 FPS
My main concern is I don't know if I will able to upgrade hardware like the GPU/PSU without the computer giving me issues, since it's pre-built. The case is also pretty small, so room seems like a dilemma too.
