Computer Problems

[TMAN10112]

Recently I upgraded my graphics card to a radeon HD 4870 along with a new power supply to power it. Being new to computer gaming I started the "will this run" thread to ask if I could run Crysis: Warhead where I was told that I could run it on full settings. I bought the game but when I tryed to play it, I could barly run it on minimum settings without the fps dropping. I think the problem is my motherboard which I havent upgraded at all. so would my motherboard make that much of a difference and which motherboard wouls you sugest that I get.

Do you have the latest drivers installed?

It could be your processor or your mother board or maybe ram.

How much RAM and what kind of processor are you running?

My graphics card isn't as good as that, and it runs crysis on full setting, though glitchy. Computers are a bit difficult to understand, mainly because all the information isn't well presented.
