So I recently built my first computer inside is the:

AMD FX-6300 cpu
Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 mother
8G DDR3 1600 RipJaw
AMD Radeon HD 6450 Video

I finally got Diablo 3...the first graphically intense game I have been able to play on it. The problem is in the game I have to turn all the settings to low and some off. My FPS is around 10-12 with the graphics at norm and around 20 at bare min. So the game looks like crap and I don’t think my video card is that bad?? My screen res. Is supposed to be 1920X1080p however in game I have to lower it way down until I find something suitable to raise my FPS.

My question is do I need another video card? Or am I just missing something?
