R9 280X or Bottlenecking?
Hey!
I bought a "HIS R9 280x IceQX^2 3GB" GPU card to improve my PC even though the other components are a bit old however I assumed it would still make a good difference. I think it has made a difference for most games but some still have low FPS on some games even though my monitor only produces a 1280x1024 Resolution. One specific game is Assassins Creed 3 (III) where I get FPS usually staying at 20-30 but sometimes going higher. Other benchmarks have been at higher resolutions and produces better FPS. My PC Specs are as follows:
CPU: AMD Athlon II X3 425 (Overclocked to 3.3 GHz)
GPU: HIS R9 280x IceQX^2 3GB
RAM: 8GB (2 x 4GB) Komputerbay 1600MHz
Storage: Samsung HD 103SJ 1TB
Mobo: GA-MA785GT-UD3H
I know I really should improve the other aspects of my rig but just want to make sure I haven't got a poor GPU.
Thanks in advance for any replies!
