p old/bad, right?

For basic tasks it's just fine.
I used to QTGMC deinterlace and x264 10 bit encode 1080p on an X2 5200+, and yours is 50% faster than that.

Mine is a little bit better.

>>51829301
Not really. His destroys yours single-threaded. Yours is only slightly faster if all 4 cores are loaded.

I don't know, I can't play any action-intensive class in team fortress 2 and it has gotten to the point where doing basic things like loading pages and watching youtube videos seems to be a strain on my computer as it takes much longer than it used to and seems to lag a lot. I wonder if it's not keeping pace with internet updates.

Or am I overlooking something? I use firefox and chrome. They're updated. I don't think it's a browser problem..
>>
>>51829353
Damn... My best bet is a used 7850 2GB and maybe an AMD FX CPU (used, of course). Third world country...
>>
>>51829385
Check temps
Make sure you're not loading 100 things on startup. (Or just clean install.)
>>
>>51829615
Clean install my browser or os?
I msconfig'd so not too much begins at startup. I ran CCleaner too.
>>
>>51829678
Sounds like your OS probably is fine.

Slowdowns can be caused by a failing hard drive. Check SMART data with CrystalDiskInfo.

I'm not sure how to read this information

>>51830080
You have sectors that went bad. That's not good.
If there's anything important on there that you don't have backed up, do so.

Scroll down to pending sectors.
>>
>>51830080
I just read a bit on wikipedia about the error it gives me. Now I'm worried my hard drive is going to crash. Is there a way i can fix it??

Based helper anon, where art thou?
>>
>>51831462
It could've been a one-time thing, or a sign of impending doom.

Backup.
You can try chkdsk /r. Just know that if your drive is dying this will sure as hell hurry it up.
>>
>>51830247
crack it open and repair the damaged sectors with a large speaker magnet

This is about the computer in general, not videogames. Why would I go on v?

lol xd computers are for gaymers!!

Do you know of any good guide to reinstalling Windows 7 on a new hard drive for if this one fails?
I figure I can just use the same product license as this computer but on a clean install.
>>
>>51831758
Its easy. Just look up a guide on line.

Be sure to write down your product key before this one dies though.

You can find it in the Control Panel under System
>>
>>51831758
Take out everything but the system drive, then boot to the DVD/USB.
Easiest will be to upgrade to 10 and just let the Media Creation Tool make your USB stick. You can use your 7 key.
>>
>>51831828
* you don't have to upgrade to 10 to use the media creation tool, it will just install 10.

>>51829385
It's good for basic tasks. Gaming is not one of those, tf2 is no exception. Tf2 is poorly optimised anyway
