New PC Ideas/ advice

Post by drakee510 »

Well I have been playing on a 2007 mac and I am tired of playing on min. settings. I really want to showcase my stuff on youtube but my dell runs fraps with 4fps. Does anyone have a build that they get over 100 fps. My budget is $500 £398 in euro ;) or somewhere around that.

over 100 fps is very difficult to get unless you have a supercomputer. Aim for 50-60 fps, makes it look realistic enough. From your budget, i think it is better to upgrade your dell with more RAM and get a better graphics card. That should technically help.

Youtube doesnt show more than 30 fps so you just need a pc that is stable at 30 fps while recording :)

For fraps its important to have two harddrives so you don't put all the pressure on a single one. It improves your framerate while recording drasticly.
