Why is PC gaming so shit?I bought a used and old PC but with good hardware.>AMD Radeon R7 200 series 2GB>Intel Xeon X-5450 3GHz>16 GB of RamBut almost everything runs like shit.>Cod2 has bad frame rates, unless I tinker in the setting, then the frame rate becomes mostly decent until the end of the levelMy system requirements are more than good.>Fallout 4 always has bad framerate, and it took me a lot of tinkering to make the screen fit the monitor but it looks stretched and ugly.I meet the minimum system requirements.>Outlast is mostly good but it could be better.Meanwhile I played VtMB and COD1 without any problems on a PC without a GPU.I spend as much time looking for fixes online and trying them as the time I spend gaming.Would installing Linux solve anything? Would my situation improve if I replace the CPU with an Intel Core i5-2400 3.1GHzAlso it constantly gets disconnected from the internet.
>AMD Radeon R7 200 series 2GB>Intel Xeon X-5450 3GHz>16 GB of Ram>why does everything run like shit
>>106893620>I bought a museum piece
>>106893633The system requirements are fine for most games tho>>106893629Whats wrong with that?
>>106893620that's an old PC. Play some old games, or just shit that'll run on any old potato. Portal and Terraria will be great on that.
>>106893620>uses GPU from 2013>wonders why new shit runs terribly
>>106893651Cod2 is old, outlast is less old and runs much better. Did you read the OP, or did you just look at the picrel and assumed that was the pc I purchased?
That setup is from 2007. Stick with games from 2007.
>>106893662None of those games are really new.
>>106893669They are newer than your gpu
>>106893666Learn to read.>>106893678So I cannot play battlefield 6 unless I buy a GPU that just got out, right genius?
>>106893693øhh yes you should not be running bf6 with any GPU that isn't a few years old at max.
>>106893693That's not remotely what I implied.
>>106893698Wrong.>>106893695Well I am running games that are actually older than my GPU, if anyone here could read.
>>106893712Yeah and that's why you are getting shit unplayable performance, genius.
>>106893620>Why is PC gaming so shit?>AMD Radeon R7 200 series 2GB>Intel Xeon X-5450 3GHz>16 GB of RamYeah if you buy shit old hardware you will get shit performance this is just a literal skill issue
>>106893720>games run like shit because the GPU is newer
>>106893734The game was never optimized for your gpu
>>106893620upgrade graphics card and you'll be fine.
>>106893663>Did you read the OP>>106893693>>Learn to read.okay lets simplify it for yougrug have old computergrug old computer slowold computer run games bad>Would installing Linux solve anything?grug install Gentoocoompiler make software run more gooderold computer still slow though
>>106893620This is a CPU from 2007. I hope you're not trying to run a modern OS on it.
>>106893620>Xeon X-5450Which OS?Did you check Task Manager? What is CPU usage? What is GPU usage?
>>106893620>good hardware>AMD Radeon R7 200 series 2GB>Intel Xeon X-5450 3GHz>16 GB of Ram
>>106895671Windows 10
>>106893646>The system requirements are fine for most games thoNo they aren't, you have 2GB of VRAM.
>>106893646No they aren't lol. That CPU is ancient. I bet even my slow ass 7 year old ultrabook could beat that PC in 7zip performance.
>>106893620Your CPU is almost old enough to legally post on this board.Upgrade or only play games made before 2012. Can't explain why COD2 runs like shit for you.>VtMB and COD1 run without any problemsWell Duh! Pentium 4s and Radeon 9x00 cards were still brand new when those games launched.>Fallout 4>I meet the minimum system requirementsyeah, minimum system requirements for the game to "run", not "run well".>Would my situation improve if I replace the CPU with an Intel Core i5-2400 3.1GHzYou'd be hunting for another motherboard because that doesn't use the same socket as a Xeon 5450. Even if you did upgrade, your computer would still be woefully obsolete.
>>106893620>>106893646Anon stfu and get dxvk/dgvoodoo already I told you on /v/ already
>>>/v/722999783
>>106898061He didn't even install the microcode for the cpu, it's stuck at 2 GHz
>>106893620OP is a stupid faggot.
>>106897212>you have 2GB of VRAMWhats vram? How do I make it better?>>106897287I play games even more ancient than that cpu and they play like shit so it can't be about performance. With cod 2 I sometimes tinker with the graphics settings and for a while it gets better but when the next level starts it ends up being shit again. Also I have an ATI HD4350 1GB but this would probably be a downgrade. >>106898048>play games made before 2012. Can't explain why COD2 runs like shit for you.Games made after 2012 like Outlast run much better though. >>106898057>dxvk/dgvoodooOh yeah I tried this but didn't work out. I don't remember what I tried tho. How can I make it work?Also I downloaded gta vice city and seems to work fine except the audio of the cutscenes doesn't work. >>106898079How do I do that? >>106898082No, you are.
>>106893620You can buy a surplus office PC that completely outclasses that pile of shit for like $50 on ebay. What the fuck are you even doing OP?
>>106898768>How do I do that?Either modify your bios image or boot windows10/linux. Linux definitely applies new microcodes and enables your cpu to run at full speed but I think windows 10 does it too
>>106893620Do you know if you've got an SSD or a hard drive? Windows 10 is cruel to mechanical hard drives. An SSD would be the most significant and worthwhile hardware upgrade you could make. Switching to Linux or Windows 7 would net you a lot of extra overhead for better performance.
>>106898838Except they don't even have gpus. I have such a pc but it doesn't turn on, so I thought I should use its cpu to replace the one from the pc Im using but I'm told it cannot be done because of the socket>>106898905I have an ssd>Switching to Linux or Windows 7 would net you a lot of extra overhead for better performance.Can I switch to any of these without deleting win10?
>>106898878How do I do this?
>>106899109I think you should stay on windows 10 for now. Try to get your cpu speed fixed. Have you been to the bios? What is your motherboard model?
>I bought a used and old PC but with good hardware.Good troll thread OP, I bet you're going to get some real answers out of a few people!
>>106899148>>106898768you cant use google or read the readme?
>>1068936462GB vram are you like crazy or something?enjoy your 2008-2010 games
>I paid money for e-waste, why won't it run Fallout 4?
