Hey guys thanks for your help.

Radunas/Freyar, yes it is a GT630 not a GTX .... but surely I would be able to get better than what I am getting even with that... or is that just wishful thinking on my behalf?

Radunas, thanks for your suggestions... My drivers were the first thing I thought of, so I made sure they were up to date - made no difference...I have never used MSI afterburner, do you think it would help?
