Hi, I just bought myself a rig for gaming. I wanted to see how I could maximize my performance. So, first question, should I upgrade to Windows 8? Will it help my performance? Next should I over clock anything, especially my processor. I have an Alienware Aurora chassis with liquid cooling so if I should over clock anything the heat shouldn't build up.
Here's my specs
OPERATING SYSTEM:
Windows 2.6.1.7601 (Service Pack 1) Windows 7 64-bit
CPU TYPE:
Intel® Core™ i7-4820K CPU @ 3.70GHz
CPU SPEED:
3.75 GHz
SYSTEM MEMORY:
17.09 GB
VIDEO CARD MODEL: (I have two of these in it)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 Ti OEM
VIDEO CARD MEMORY:
4.21 GB
VIDEO CARD DRIVER:
nvd3dum.dll
DESKTOP RESOLUTION:
1920x1080
HARD DISK SIZE:
5.99 TB
HARD DISK FREE SPACE:
5.74 TB (96%)
Just an additional detail I ran Diablo 3 to see how it runs and it was getting 140 FPS in town, at max settings with V sync off.
