I don't know what you mean by "big games" but your graphics card is gonna hold you back from playing many games decently; & 3GB isn't very much RAM for gaming or even running Windows in general. Review from 2009: http://www.alphr.com/nvidia/nvidia-... message edited by riider

Alright, by big games I meant later games say 2010 to now. Is changing the processor to a quad core and overclocking going to make any difference because I cant afford a good graphics card at the moment. I have enough cooling, one fan in the front and two exhausts on the top back

✔ Best Answer

Overclocking the CPU should help overall performance, but it can't make up for too little RAM or a weak graphics card. If your games lag or stutter, try dialing back the game settings & use a lower gaming resolution. message edited by riider
