I'm trying to be able to play games on my PC. I DL a free Ghost Recon game and it worked but with latency. Maybe about 1 second or so.
My PC is not designed for gaming and Idk much about PC.
I'm looking to get a game running that will be very basic. It's not out yet but Beta testing starts in 2 weeks. No specs have been released as of yet. It's very similar to Counterstrike.
Anyway what do I need to do? I've heard mixed feedback with my questions so was looking for more opinions.
Can I just get a new GPU and call it a day?
I attached pics of my power supply and motherboard at request of someone on another forum. Below the pics are all My specs that I could find. Also I used canirunthis.com with my PC as is and checked Counterstrike:GO and it said all was good except GPU.
