Fatal1ty IN9

When I bought this mobo it came with everything except for the processor which i bought seperatly and put in myself. Ever since then i've been wondering if the whole thing is working properly, even tho it is really fast, still i'm wondering
Should it be faster?

my computer specs are

Fatal1ty Motherboard IN9 32X Sli
Athlon AMDAM2 64 Dual Core 2.2ghz 7300+ energy efficient.
1 gig DDR2 Ram
geforce 7300gs 256mb gphx card

Initially when i installed the processor my computer kept on turning off because it was not recognizing the cpu fan and i still to this day i don't understand why it wasn't recognizing it in the uguru section of the bios.

I got around this by having uguru not monitoring the cpu fan so my computer didn't turn off all the time and not load up.

I've recently started playing LoTR Online and i expected it to run perfectly on my computer, and in the beginning it seemed to run fine, but now i'm starting to experiance difficulties.

The settings on LoTR are set to default, and tho the game is still playable i've recently been recieving Lag spikes quite a lot when in an area which requires a lot of loading, and i did not expect my computer to have lag while loading something in only Medium graphics setting when my friends computer which has worse specs than mine runs totally smoothly in the High setting.

I'm starting to think that my system is set up wrongly, or that i need to buy new ram or something, because my computer has the power on paper, but is not fullfilling that power in reality, and im jsut confused as to why it isn't.

 

its your video card. while the rest of ur specs are state of the art, the video card is lacking a bit. step up to an 8600GTS/GT at least and you'll be able to max out pretty much everything. o, just noticed. ad another gig of RAM too if u can. If you have Vista, id add the RAM before i did anything else

 

:waveFirstly,WELCOME on MG:wave

FOr this mobo you have WOW,7300 is something like buying Mercedes with third class tyres,and wanting to go 200kph.So buy something that you will use in the future in SLI mode.

 

Thanks for your replies Yeah i'm saving for a new gphx card atm and i've bought another gig of ram which is in the post.
