So, I got a new 1100ish $ pc and these are the specs :
Amd fx 6300 3.5ghz running at stock with stock cooler
2 times 4 gb ddr3 1600 mhz kingston ram
Asus gtx 760 dc2oc 2gb gddr5
asrock extreme 970 r2.0
western digital 320 gb green (i think) hard drive
Since I work, I told the IT guys to format the wd 320 gb drive and install everything.
When I did get my pc I added 2 more drives into it, and when turning it on I noticed they did not format the drive before installing win 7 on it again and it previously run with a intel c2d cpu system.
I was suprised they'd do this.
All the games were still here.
I then installed bf3 and even on medium settings 1280*720 i still get only around 40-50 fps on maps such as noshahr canals.
I've checked the ram and it is perfectly fine.
Is the cpu bottlenecking me, is the problem the unformatted drive, or is the problem the drive again which is a bit old ?
