I have been building PCs for over 20 years now and I have an issue I can not figure out.
My friend has little money to build a gaming machine for his son... Like $300 and that includes monitor, so I went through my stuff and build him what I consider a nice machine. The issue is I loaded 2 older games I had, Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Quake 3. Like I said simple, these will run on Intel Graphics. Both game stutters from time to time and I can't figure it out. Here are specs.
HP Z600 Tower. 3/18/2018 bios
Xeon e5645 6-Core 2.4ghz 12MB cache CPU.
12GB (3 x 4GB ) DDR3 1333mhz ECC Memory.
Power Color AMD R9 285 2GB Graphics card.
650 Watt Power Supply.
1TB Storage - 2 x 500GB WD Black Hard Drives in RAID-0 (NEW)
Windows 7 Pro 64bit.
Windows 7 Experience scores.
CPU - 7.6
Memory - 7.6
2D Graphics - 7.9
3D Graphics - 7.9
Hard Drive - 5.9
Anything I can do to help him out I will. Your help is appreciated.
