The upgrade of gaming performance

I want to improve my computer performance when games. I would like to reach at least 60 fps on games such as Skyrim by running on the highest settings graphically. I don't know anything about other than some rudimentary knowledge material and would appreciate any ideas and links to hardware to buy. That is, graphics card, power supply.

My comps Info:

Model: h8-1000z

: Processor Processor AMD Athlon (TM) II X 4 840 T

RAM: 16 GB

Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 530

Power: 460 watts

Hello

Review this information on the system requirements of Skyrim.

The only thing I see which is low with your current PC is the video card.

Study it posted information onselection of a discrete graphics card Guide.

The 660 NVIDIA would be an excellent choice with your current diet.

The NVIDIA 670 or 680 would be better than the NVIDIA 660 if they adapt but should replace existing power. I recommend the Corsair CX600.

You can do a search on the internet on Skyrim performance, tuning and FPS. There are many game tweeks and changes of the parameters that could be used to improve performance.  Be aware that if you play online then your interent speed and performance of the remote server will also effect your game performance.

    Hi rmschaefer,

    Thanks for the upgrade to Mac OS Sierra! Looks like your Mac takes a bit longer at the right stop. Great way to make sure that all applications are closed before you stop. You can try to check your Mac logs or startup items. Your item journal are applications that run as soon as you start up your Mac. They can run in the background continuously slow down your machine. Sierra macOS: If you think you have incompatible connection points

    You can also check to see how much disk space you have on your Mac. With Mac OS Sierra, you can release and optimize your disk without effort space to allow your Mac to run to its full potential!  Information System for Mac: optimization of the storage on your Mac

    If the release of disk space on your Mac and the removal of the login items not solve the problem, try to start the Mac in Mode safe.  Try safe mode if your Mac does not start-up

    What is safe mode?

    Safe mode (sometimes called secure boot) is a way to start up your Mac so that it performs certain checks and prevents certain software from loading automatically or opening. From your Mac in safe mode does the following:
    Check your startup disk and attempts to fix problems if necessary directory
    Loads needed kernel extensions only
    Prevents elements start and the login items open automatically
    Disables the user installed fonts
    Delete font caches, hiding the kernel and other files of the system cache
    Together, these changes can help resolve or isolate issues related to your startup disk.

    These measures should have your Mac off normally as expected and the Mac OS Sierra also runs fluid it is supposed to. Please use the Apple Support communities to post your question.
    Good day.

  • Major Outlook and timing of the problems after the upgrade of the El Capitan

    On the advice of the Apple support (phone call) I recently upgraded from Yosemite to El Capitan 10.11.6.

    I have many problems. The two largest are (1) stands (2016) Outlook and frequently "must be closed; (2) calendars quickly goes to "not responding" after the launch and shows multiple entries for a single event. Example: I have a class to repeat each week (when I was in Yosemite). Before the upgrade, he showed the event once a week. After the upgrade, it it shows 13452 times the same day. I followed the advice on these topics, but nothing has worked. Similarly the calendars on my iPhone5 freezes as well.

    Hello Steve,.

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. I have a problem with your MacBook Air use after update is not what you expect. Based on what you said, it seems you can experience some software related issues, and here's how I recommend refine you and resolve these issues:

    1. first of all, try to run a quick with the disk utility tool test, as this can correct simple problems that you encounter. Then restart normally and retest your problems.

    Disk utility (El Capitan): a disc repair

    2. use Mode without fail to start up your Mac so that it performs certain checks, remove files from the system cache, check your startup disk and trying to fix problems if necessary directory. Test mode safe questions, then restart normally and test again.

    Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning
    Graphics performance limited in recovery of OS X or in safe mode

    3. you can find out if unexpected behavior is related to the user file or a parameter in trying to reproduce the problem to a different user account. This process includes creating a new user account, connect to it and test for the issue.

    How to test a question in another account on your Mac.

    See you soon!

  • After the upgrade to 10.11.6, mDNSResponder runs havoc

    Hello

    After the el Capitan to 10.11.6, upgrade my internet connection has been blocked by my ISP because of a flood of packets to multicast from my side.

    I studied using the monitor activity and found that mDNSResponder creates the network traffic with more than 20 MB per minute, and I see also all the lights on my network switches will blink quickly. The problem disappears if I manually kill the process; then it automatically restarts and creates only a few KB per min.

    It is two machines, an iMac and a Powerbook from 2015. Nothing else was changed other than the upgrade.

    So obviously something is wrong.

    Thanks for the resolution!

    W.

    Please read this message before doing anything.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

    The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

  • Action of 'Reply with template' missing the Message filters choice "perform these Actions."

    Hello

    I just installed the latest version of Mozilla Thunderbird (24.4.0) and I am trying to create a "vacation response." I read on Mozilla's Support site:

    Another option is to create a message filter and respond to all incoming messages with a model.

    (see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/vacation-response?esab=a & s = out + of + the + office & r = 3 & as = s )

    I created a template and saved, and then I tried to create a message filter. However, there is no option for "Reply with template" in the list of choices for the action to perform. I see choices of action, for "Copy Message To", "move the Message to ' and"Forward Message To", but not"answer with model.

    Why is it missing and how to get what it appears?

    Thank you for helping.

    Hi sfhowes,

    I think I knew what is happening.

    First of all, I am a new user of Thunderbird. I have been using e-mail program from Apple on my Mac for many years. Since the upgrade to Maverick, his remark that the Mac mail program is unstable sometimes causing my Mac to freeze, sometimes lose my ability to change windows desktop, and slow clumsy scrolling problems in the e-mail program, but also the temporary e-mail program freeze.

    I installed the latest version of Thunderbird this weekend and am just become familiar with it. I have configured all 8 of my email accounts and they all worked very well. Then I added the Conversations module and I wanted to be able to rearrange the order of my eight accounts and found that Folderpane Tools was the ticket and it worked... had not noticed it was only up to 23... but it worked on 24.

    I said incorrectly that the Folderpanes changed the way that my folder pane displays things. It's the Conversation that made... FolderPane Tools let me reorganize and that's all. But information changed the way the things that have been presented in that in records added to organize by inboxes, sent, trash, etc. And models was one of these records, he added.

    Being unfamiliar with the models as I'm new to Thunderbird. Here is what happened. I created a message and saved as a template. I didn't realize that it was married to a particular account. And when I looked at the file of models I do not remember to see a subfolder for the specific account, for which the model was.

    After reading your last email that I removed the two add and my accounts appears in the folders pane as they did originally, most notable was the Inbox and folders of model disappeared.

    I tried to create a filter for a specific account and the problem remains, but I was wondering where my registered design went because I couldn't find it. So I created another and discovered that has created a new folder called Templates for the account that I was trying to make the filter "reply with template". And then I could see the "reply with template" option when creating a filter.

    To understand what was wrong in the first place, I reinstalled the Conversations, and all folders (Inbox, sent, trash, models) have been reinstated. I looked in the template folder and saw two subfolders, one for the account that I just created the new model and one for my default account. In my default account was the original model I've saved. And now when I try to create a filter by using the original template, I see the answer with the template option.

    I can no longer reproduce the problem since the Conversations, creating a second template and then uninstalling reinstalling Conversations.

    So, the problem is solved, but something is not quite write when the first model created during the installation of the add-on of Conversations. I don't remember see a subfolder in the Templates folder when I created the first model... I could be wrong, but all I remember is the model itself in the Template folder, and not in a subfolder. So I guess that the answer with the Template option did not appear because the model I made did not seem to be assigned to an account.

    Thanks for help.

  • Since the upgrade to 10.11.4 won't open my app store.

    Since the upgrade to 10.11.4 will not load the app store my mac icon. It opens, but all I get is a spinning wheel.

    Please test after taking each of the steps that you have not already tried it. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.

    Sometimes, the cause of the problem may be an Apple network, whereby failure cases none of the steps below will have no effect. You just have to wait for the failure be fixed. This should rarely, if ever, take more than a few hours.

    Step 1

    Connect to the App Store by selecting Sign In in the Store menu. If you are already connected, disconnect and then reconnect.

    Step 2

    Remove or disable "Little Snitch", or any other third party software like that blocks outbound connections to network, in accordance with the instructions of the developer.

    Step 3

    In the menu bar, select

     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network

    If the preferences window is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Click the Advanced button, and then select the Proxies tab. If any proxy are selected, make a note of and then deselect them. You need not change the bypass or the FTP settings. Click OK, and then apply. Test. The result may be that you can not connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if necessary.

    Step 4

    Log off or restart the computer.

    Step 5

    Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode).

    Step 6

    If possible, connect to a different network and test.

    Step 7

    Reset the NVRAM.

  • Cannot turn off after the upgrade to 10.11.4

    I have a late 2012 3.4 ghz i7 iMac / 32 RAM 10.11.4 running (and other iMacs around the office): I can't stop. When I try a stop down (after removal of servers/TimeMachine, close all applications - even unplugging the ethernet cable) - it goes to a black screen with the "circle of rotation of lines." They will be 'spin' this weekend if I let him. Instead, I'll put the machine to sleep during the week and make a hard cock down via the power button Friday night.

    I think it has something to do with the upgrade to 10.11.4. I have reset the PRAM and tried also to start up in the 'hidden' startup disk and first aid running without result. Tried to find preferences for throw - unsuccessfully - Finder found "com.apple.finder.sfl" I should throw?

    Hi This is my first time asking something in the forums. (At least I think) Well anyway, I got the Macbook Pro Mid 2012 13 "with the retina also runs the OS El captain. I do computer for school and sometimes animation video editing and ive noticed some performance as my projects get bigger and bigger issues. I want to improve my mac, but I'm not very tech savy and don't want to do something useless, so I had a few questions, I wanted to ask you.

    Do I need for my hard drive and my Ram?

    What effect will the upgrade of my Ram and what effect will be upgrading my hard drive with an SSD?

    I saw this SSD online and thought of novice opion that sounds get Id more bang for my buck (link) with her. Is this good? What more to kill? WiIll it still works? Could you suggest some other good affordable options?

    My next question if I decide to upgrade my Ram can provide you with some good affordable links to buy of new RAM sticks, is also 8 GB, the best he can do?

    My next question I watched a few videos online and by installing the updates level looks really easy and fast. But I use bootcamp (to play games sometimes), and I wanted to know if I save my files on my drive as ive seen people do videos, (something to wipe the drive and put it back in after installing updates) will be I lose my windows 7, I lost the disc to reinstall and he check so I really want to buy a new also do not want to lose the things I put in memory.

    From the retina MacBooks you is impossible to pass the ram as it is soldered to the logic board. As with the hard drive, it's just a card ssd and you can't get those anywhere because their hard to find.

  • 3D photo restores do not properly since the upgrade

    I developed an application in labview 2012 and have recently updated until 2014.

    Since this upgrade, I have a problem with my 3d image rendered incorrectly.

    I am attaching the images as it is difficult to describe the problem. There should be 4 of robot arm placed on the corners of a gray box that is placed slightly above the ground. The image with the removed soil that shows the best, but it is obviously incorrect. Remove objects and textures can give better results in some respects, but the question is always present whenever I changed something.

    It seems that parts of models are not rendered or sections are not rendered in the correct order, but I'm not aware of all the properties change this.

    I tried to change the clip plain but documentation is very limited and I doubt that's the problem anyway as the middle of the image which is incorrect, the floor and the ends of the robots never seem to cut.

    I am running Labview Robotics 2014 and using the Robotics Toolbox to generate arms on Windows 7 64 bit with nvidea GeForce GTX 760 graphics card.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Nick

    I experienced similar problems with the rendering window. I feel quite informal and subjective, it is that the render window is something that NEITHER is not updated with the latest improvements in graphics cards, and having developers use real 3D image controls instead.

    I experimentally tested the 3D picture control and I can't see any advantage of the render window of performance compared to the 3D so image my, yet unofficial, impression is that image 3D controls are hardware accelerated now but it is not clearly stated in the documentation for LabVIEW.

    You can put a window on a façade of VI 3D and select in the context menu 'Fit control component' and create a window similar to the rendering window. It requires a little more programming, but you get a lot more flexibility for your application.

  • G42 - 490 YOU: what changes can I see or wait until after the upgrade of RAM?

    Hello

    My PC model # is G42-490TU, processor - Intel Core (TM) i3 CPU M370,
    RAM: 6.00 GB (2.93 usable), System Type: 32-bit operating system.

    I've recently upgraded RAM 2.00 GB to 6,00 GB with 2.93 GB usable, that's what it shows.

    I want to know if this 2.93 GB of 6,00 GB usable the correct value of the memory that is made available?

    Also, I want to know what changes can I see or wait after upgrading the RAM from 2.00 to 6.00 GB where 2.93 GB is usable? How does this improve the effectiveness of my PC? Is there something that needs to be done on my own apart from adding the RAM to increase performance and the maintenance of my PC?

    Thank you best regards &,.

    The problem is the operating system of your laptop is 32-bit.

    A 32-bit operating system can use @ 3.25 GB installed memory.

    Install additional 4 GB to a laptop that had 2 GB was a regrettable mistake.

    As long as the 4 GB memory module you have is compatible, you'd better remove the 2 GB module and put the 4 GB module in its place.

    You won't find a lot of improvement with the current configuration of a 2 GB module and a 4 GB module. With this memory configuration does not work in dual channel mode.  You would be better with two modules of 4 GB, but this is only if you upgrade your operating system to a 64-bit version.

    In fact, you would have improved if your OS is 64-bit. A 64-bit Windows operating system will recognize and use the installed memory.

    If you really want to improve the performance of the laptop, you should consider upgrading to a SATA SSD 256 GB drive at least.
