GPU Help

That might be part of your slowdown, since an APU graphics use system ram. That ram is fine for most anything, but is weak for gaming memory. But getting a discrete gpu solves that anyway.

Anyway, if you can reach to $150 I recommend this:

That 750 ti will blow my 650 out of the water and I like my card.

If a $150 card is all that it will take to convert this rig to a functional gaming rig (at least for my purposes), then I'd say I can definitely justify the GTX750. Most of my PC gaming friends are "serious", and will barely look at a GPU if it costs less than $300 :|

I swear one of my friends has spent more time modding Skyrim and upgrading his PC than he's actually spent playing Skyrim...

EDIT: What is the functional difference between the two you linked?

My Radeon 7870 was $170 and I can run any game in existence on high or ultra settings.

Edit: The one Nobbs posted has a better cooler and a factory overclock.

Sounds great, I'll order the Gigabyte model once I figure out a few other things I need. I've been looking into a 3.5" internal card reader and an SSD, so I may as well order everything at once.

That card should be a decent gaming card.
