Hello i have a Micron PC. (don't laugh to hard!) Running a 1Ghz Tbird AMD Athlon.
I've done a few upgrades over the years(yes that wasn't a typo) like memory up to 758MB
ATI 9550 256MB. but i'm begining to guess that no matter how much you soup up a volkswagen, it still can't beat a ferrari!
even with overclocking the vid card it struggles to render 45 FPS. it still works good enough for most games but the newer games, well lets just say its struggles very badly! lol
i am somewhat computer literate, but i guess not quite in the league with some of you from what i've been reading on here.
is there anything that can be done to help this poor old comp. or is it really time to put it out to pasture? ive tried tweaking windows, and other routes but nothing really seems to help. i tried the ATItool and even then i can barely get 55FPS at 400.50/220.19. i don't think its the card i'm begining to think its the old girl lol. any suggestions will be appreciated. thanks
