I bought R7 250 2 GB DDR3 graphics card. I knew it can not run next-gen games in high quality but still I am not getting good performance in games
I played Crysis 3 and it was not giving smooth FPS as I expected, was playing it in Medium settings at 1366*768 resolution and was not able to get 30 FPS average game was lagging at many locations. Same with AC Black Flag game was lagging in some places (At medium quality).
I watched a lot of benchmark but it is not performing what it said.
This is my guess: PCI Expressv1.0 it bottlenecking the card or it could be the PSU
My pc specs
AMD 2.91 Ghz Dual Core Processor
M2N68 AM Plus Motherboard (PCI Express v1.0 16x )
2 GB DDR2 RAM
450 W PSU (It's zebronics)
R7 250 Graphics Card
So guys any suggestions ?
I know my PC is very old and I will upgrade it soon

As the other said, RAM is a bit of an issue, and its fairly cheap, though to be honest may be worth looking at "barebones" packages to upgrade RAM, MOBO and processor all in one go.More importantly however, if you are just looking at RAM, then i think from that motherboard then it doesnt even support DDR3 RAM its so old. May be wrong though.
Thanks
agree ddr2 ram is so outdated plus a dual core CPU isn't good either
