Hello, I am wondering if some components of my computer are causing me to bottleneck in games. If you think that is the case, then some advice on what to purchase would be appreciated.
GPU: XFX 4890
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad q8300 2.5 GHz
RAM: 8 GB 666.7 MHz (PC3-10600)
Motherboard: PEGATRON CORPORATION Eureka3 (Intel G43 (Eaglelake-G)
HDDs: WDC WD5000AAKS-65V0A0 Serial ATA 3Gb/s & Seagate ST3500413AS Serial ATA 6Gb/s
I currently do my gaming at a 1280 by 1024 resolution with settings maxed, or very close to max, AA at X4, AF at X16. I swear, the frames per second could be better, and I think the culprit is my CPU. Any ideas?
