So i´ve bought a new system, with a 4200+ X2 processor, but it feels kinda slow, i really cant tell very much difference between this and my old P4 2.8 GHz.
Is there something i have to do to "get it going"?
Cuz this is kinda dissappointing i must say.

In 3dmark 06 i get 0.311 FPS in the first cpu-test, and 0.502 FPS in the second.


And one more thing, i thought i would be able to play Oblivion with high settings and good fps, but it really runs bad, is it because the computer only have 1GB ram? I have the x1950xt GPU so i cant imagine it being anything else, unless it´s the cpu but i cant imagine it being that bad.
I am very thankfull for any help.

And since it´s my first post here, hey all!

Hello welcome to the forums!
What brand of computer is it? You can have the fastest pentium chip, but if you have slow ram and a SLOW hard drive it will create bottle necks for you.

Try to find out how many RPM's your hard drive is. If it's slow you may want to and it's within the 30 days of your purchase I would try to return it.

Also remove all uncessary running programs in your system try aka right bottom side of your screen, this will free up your ram.

Hope this helps a little!:cheer2:
