I've never posted on a forum before so here goes - i need help!!! I've rebuilt my system and really expected the performance gains to be much more significant than they currently are. My average fps on WoW is around 30-40 and even more disturbing is that on Witcher (which is a 2007-2008 game) during scenes of heavy battle my fps seem to drop to around 7-8 as it becaome EXTREMELY choppy - and that was after I scaled down the graphics settings to medium. Here are the highlights of my system:
AMD Phenom II X4 944 (Black Edition) Processor 3.2 GHz
(2) RadeonHD 5770 1GB video cards in crossfire
4 GB System memory
Windows 7 64bit
Motherboard currently has built in sound but i do have an HD Omega claro + that I haven't installed yet - would this make a difference? Do I need more RAM? Is my processor and video cards that outdated that I can't even run a 2008 graphics intensive game on full settings? Do I need a better cases to ensure its cool enough in there? Says my processor stays at around 69-70 Celsius.
Any feedback would be GREATLY appreciated!
