Here are the relevant bits of what I bought in 2012 from Cyberpowerpc:
CU-208-216 INTEL I7-3820 3.6 GHZ 10M LGA RETAIL 1 1,199.00 1,199.00
RM-317-802 4GB CORSAIR VENGEANCE 1600MHZ DDR3 4 4.50 18.00
MB-392-104 GIGABYTE X79-UP4 QUAD CROSSFIRE/ QUAD SLI SATA 3.0 US 1 -5.00
PS-121-112 CORSAIR CMPSU-850TX V2 POWER SUPPLY 1 56.00 56.00
VC-223-104 HIS ICQ AMD RADEON 7850 2GB PIC-E 1 24.00 24.00
Since then everything has been fine, because I play old games (namely Company of Heroes, CounterStrike, and Starcraft II) at max settings on a 27" monitor.
However, I recently played a Starcraft II game which lagged. So I'm trying to figure out where the weakness or bottleneck in my system is, but I haven't kept up with gaming tech for years.
With that said, I'm assuming it's the video card. Am I right?
