I just built a new pc, its the first time ive ever owned a core 2 duo and assumed that it would have no problem running games, especially older games! But when i installed "NFS Most wanted Black" it ran awesome (as it should) but when i turned all the graphics options up it lagged.
Shouldnt my system run this perfectly as it is an older game on a brand new pc? What am i missing??? And what do i need to make this a good gaming pc???
Your graphics card is shockingly bad. New PCs don't come with graphics cards usually unless you pay a lot for them. Krj's recommendations are good, however you will almost certainly also need to change your power supply to use them - for that I recommend these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139003 Be advised that if your PC is in a relatively small case, you may also need to change that as well.
