New Comp Slow Framerate

Hey all,

Yesterday i just bought a HP a6614f desktop computer

AMD Phenom x4 9500 Quad Core Processor 2.20GHz

6g Ram 650g Hard drive

Nvidia Geforce 6150 SE Graphics Card

64-Bit Operating System Vista

Iam having low Framerate while in AV etc. I just 3 box, not five too. Iam assuming the Graphics card.

Before i go out looking for a new one, anyone have any suggestions why its low?

I turned all WoW settings down and i just cant figure out what else the problem would be.

Thanks The Bs

Edit: Iam using Keyclone

video card it is, buy now why the sales are on, i saw newegg with a 4870 deal for 159, whihc is so far the best deal ive seen. for a little less there is 9800gt etc.

i would assume it's the graphics card as well. 6150 SE... isn't that onboard video? that's really the only thing i can think of after looking at the rest of the specs. if you're 3-boxing then you shouldn't be maxing out your memory or cpu.
what are you looking at for a replacement video card? you'll probably need to upgrade the power supply as well, generally these brand name comps come with the bare minumum as far as power goes.

6150 SE??? what?? improve the graphics card and you should be alright.

definately the gfx card

AMD Phenom x4 9500

That chip suffers from the AMD TLB eratta causing a loss of 20-50% cpu performance depending on the task at hand, wow suffers about 30% in my experience.

I have an app that disables the TLB eratta at the expense of stability, I can't find where I got it right now to link...

the statement "it's a shit graphics card" is not false, it is one of the slowest graphics Adapters still available on the market.

On the bright side, at least the machine didn't come with a middle of the road video card that cost a little more. Now he can get a better card and there is really no loss. I hope there is a good video slot on that board though. :D

1) video card is shit
2) did you cap your FPS on your alt boxes? (if you're going to ask how, go ask google instead)

I did cap out the FPS

Ive been looking at the 9800gt

TLB Disable Tool

That link takes you to the tool that you need to run to get full performance out of any 9X00 series phenom.
