So my Christmas present to myself was a new build (the first in 5 years) and was running pretty decently in Skyrim and in large matches in BF3. I now am playing SWTOR and am gratefully in the Diablo 3 Beta. My concern is an extremely slow FPS in both games when even just a few animations are occurring onscreen, and an inability to even attempt PvP in SWTOR. I have been forced to turn shadows completely off and most other setting on low. I know my rig isn't an absolute beast by any means, but was hoping to at least have a shot at Ultra settings in these games.
I'm thinking that my HDD is the issue here and have been looking into an SSD, but any other suggestions or help would be grateful.
Thanks.
