Upgrade My PC Please! Episode 5: Dem Tings Wit Graphics

bee

it is the worst. especially when its games that are from before the integrated graphics was made.

been there.. had an athlon with the onboard gpu..it was bad but back then I was playng nfs and strategy stuff so it could handle it

 

[thegamefox]

Gotta go for that potatosama, how do you even game with such low end hardware

umm..you dont game..you just struggle XD

 

[thegamefox]

Gonna go with PotatoSama this time around! Playing games on an APUs iGPU is painful. Been there, done that. Still doing that, sometimes...
Seriously though, give that man an upgrade!

unless you play lol or similar games..and cs on low-med..well you sit back and injoy the slide show

 

[thegamefox]

Think I’ve been beaten here! I’ll say an early congrats to Vince!

you never know.. wont be the first time tables turn in this season of upgrade my pc.. after all that I think you need a stable pc

 

[Crissyfox]

Got a better idea..instead of giving liam an new ryzen build..lets give him an award for the "most killed amd hardware ever"..like seriously..ok ive killed hardware but come on! how? XD so kinda think liam has this one

right I voted for him for that reason

 

[thegamefox]

right I voted for him for that reason

same here! after all that "luck" I think he deserves it

thats not too bad..taking its a laptop cpu..for basics it can do the job(also taking that laptops are not for gaming) if that is bad you sould try an atom based netbook..those things are..umm..great XD

yea no, it was terrible at everything. brand new windows, slow, freezing, couldn't play 720p youtube video, the only games that it played well were ones from the 90's it couldnt really even handle 2000's games. it took gimp like 20 mins to load. 15 min startup times. and it was fresh windows XD

know the feel...my atom was kinda ok for youtube(atleast back at 09) the only games I played on it was nfs and warlords..it could do it..anything else didn't even bother trying if it could, mostly used it as a net surf/portable media pc. now days I would just bring it to its knees easy just doing my online stuff..and that with 480p yt.. 720 or 1080 for it wile doing all other stuff would be a insta-kill for it XD

Finally managed to get past registration issues a few days ago, so now I can take part at last. Def gonna have to vote for Vince. Feel bad for my fellow Canadian, because I know how pricey it gets building a PC here, but... Playing on Vince's PotatoSama must be a complete nightmare.

 

[Dodgexander]

No dedicated GPU, jeez.

Well, It was hard choosing even so, every PC needs an upgrade bad. I own one of those crappy AMD APUs, without the APU part xD

 

[Moju409]

I have to vote for Vince ‘PotatoSama’ at least the others have a 70 or 80 series mobo.

 

[Zsombor]

[trupek1000]

[QugLoaf]

[Dylan Valdez]

[Ming CHOW]

[Crissyfox]

Congrats to potatosama, enjoy your upgrade.

I am eager for the next video. this contest is great I wonder how effective it was at getting new members too XD

 

[HD Shovelhead]

Congrats Vince,happy to see your system get some fresh gear

 

[BurakP]

PotatoSama Got my Vote. Im sitting here with a oem PSU and q6600 paired with a gtx465.So I can understand him.I piss my Pants everyday that it doesnt die because of the PSU.

 

[goldstone77]

Vince ‘PotatoSama’ from the United States Has my vote! Good luck!

 

[SneakyGamer]

I'm glad that Vince got the most votes because I myself know how bad it was to try to play CS:GO on low settings with low frame rates.

 

[Richard Larkin]

Voting for potatosama for sure
