I've Got It
Hello everyone

I got an 2x2 Ram DDR3Graphic Card : Asus GeForce GTX 660 Ti DirectCU II OC 2GB DDR5 192-bit
Processor : intel Core i7-3770 ( 3.40GHz,~ 3.9GHz )
And i am not yet satisfied by the fps which i get in games.
My question for you is: If i upgrade my ram from 4gb to -> 6gb or 8gb will it help my pc to increase some fps ?
Thanks for you attention and i wait your answer!

EDIT:I record my gameplays that's why i want more fps
 
Recording is always a hassle on the basic machines. Download a game booster, clean your computer, and most of all defrag your computer. I use Razer Game Booster personally and I would recommend it.
 
Okay thaks,so i will upgrade to 8 gb[DOUBLEPOST=1365326746,1365326530][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yea the 4gb is the bottle neck, upgrade it to 8GB.

Also cap your fps to 30, as that is all you need.

What do you mean by "cap your fps to 30" ?

By the way I record with fraps
 
I agree with Shane, you're being bottle necked by the 4 GBs of ram, if upgrading to 8 doesn't help, are you running all the games you play maxed and at 1920 x 1080? I'd say try lowering the resolution might help, if you personally don't want to then if you have AA on I'd recommend turning it off while recording and lowering some other settings. AA is a FPS killer in some cases. Hope it helps. :)

And about "capping" your game's Frames per second, some programs such as DXTory and Bandicam have such features built in. Some games like CoD WaW have console commands or even settings that allow you to do cap your FPS. :)
 
Is fraps recording to a separate hard drive? If its recording to the same drive windows or your games are on, then that's a much more likely bottleneck than ram.

What Shane is referring to is an option in fraps. You can set the fps cap in fraps options. There's no need to go above 30 for starting out.

Omg, I completely forgot about this. xD Yeah, you need 2 Hard Drives as you're going to run into problems with the HDD reading and writing. I'd recommend getting a HDD that can write at 100MBPs+ and have that your main HDD for recording, nothing else. I heard some stuff that recording to SSDs isn't good and can cause problems, but I might be wrong.
