Hi all,
I recently upgraded my machine with a Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS and am still suffering some preformance issues, primarily while playing Company of Heroes. I run the game at maximum settings but at a reasonable resolution of 1024-1280. For the most part the game runs fine but during intensive scenes my frames can drop as low as 4-5 fps and from what ive read this graphics card should preform considerably better. Anyways id just like to know whats slowing me down at this point. Im sure its either my power supply (only 460W) or my physical memoy, 1GB DDR2 533Mhz. I believe the rest of my computer is up to date.
I would simply like an opinion on which of the two is most likely responsible for the poor framerates and which would be best to upgrade.
1.) 460W power supply
2.) 1GB DDR2 533Mhz.
Thanks for your help!
