hardware problems?

[Tyler22]

Ok heres what's going on. I am really into pc gaming and have been trying out alot of computer games lately....I have a dell 4700 with:

3.0 ghz cpu
1 Gb ram
80 Gig HD
And a radeon 800xl graphics card

i bought this new titanium case for it and it have 6 fans in it to keep it cool.....But no matter what game i play it is just WAY to laggy(choppy).....now I don't think it should be that choppy with those specs....because my specs are WAY over the recommended specs...anyone have any idea why the games are going so slow? thanks alot to anyone who replies!

not sure if you did this but - did you get the latest drivers for your video card and all?
