Potential compatibility issue between AMD A8-7600 and GTX 750
Back then I upgraded to a GPU and switched to a TV, but I kept the HDMI cable connected to the motherboard instead of moving it. As soon as I realized the mistake, I replaced it right away. I didn’t notice any change in frame rate, just less heat and a bit less CPU load.
It was already quite bad five years back, especially the CPU is terrible. Don’t spend more on upgrades unless you find free components, upgrade to something like a Ryzen 2600 or similar, and get at least 8 or 16GB of DDR4 RAM—maybe an older one.
I see, my finances were very tight at the time, so I think that’s the only option we had available. It has helped me so far, but I kept worrying because it was hard to find anything about these components online. I have an old DDR3 4GB stick from my first PC—different brand and CL9 instead of CL11 like the one I’m using now. From what I know, mixing RAM brands can be risky if the system doesn’t boot properly. Should I try it anyway, hoping for any advantages?
Combining RAM might succeed or fail—it really depends. Often it attempts to run at the maximum speed both components allow, but you may need to adjust the timing settings yourself to get it working. It’s a good idea to try it anyway since avoiding slow page loading can slightly boost performance.
It seems like you're hitting a CPU limitation, which might explain why FPS isn't improving. You should definitely boost your graphics options beyond what your built-in drivers offer. If you haven't already, increasing them can help you get the most performance from your 750.
