I upgraded my pc from e5700 3.0 ghz 2 gb raam 800 mhz geforce gt9500 to q8300 2.5 ghz 4 gb ram 1333 mhz ati 5700 1gb!and games like fable 3,assassins creed revelations all perform worse,and the weird thng is when I used auto detect settings in fable 3 it set it to very high with my old pc!and with my new pc it auto detects it to reasonable!someone explain plz!
 
Could you please correct the model of your graphics card?
I've never heard of an ATI 5700. There is an AMD HD5770 1GB model.

Secondly, what OS (operating system) were you using before and what OS are you using now?

I think that either you previously used DirectX 9 and now you're using DirectX 11 OR that you have Anti-Aliasing switched on, which you previously didn't have.

Oh yeah sorry I have the 5770 1 gb,and no same OS and anti aliasing was turned on prev asswell,yeah I think its the dx11 thng,anyway to override with which it renders
 
Might be a silly question but did you do a complete re install of your operating system when you upgraded? As in format?
 
+1 to KalMaverick's question. If you didn't format/completely reinstalled Windows, then I would suggest that you do so after you've backed up all your data.

Fable 3 & Assassins Creed:Revelations are both DirectX 9 games actually, so it won't use DX10 or DX11 for them.

I would suggest that you install the latest version of the DirectX 9 redistributable: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=8109 * I'm not 100% sure that that is indeed the latest version

Lately I've also seen quite a lot of performance related issues due to certain graphics card drivers. Perhaps just download & install the latest drivers again off the AMD website. If you've already got the latest, then perhaps try using an earlier version.

But I have newest version of dx11?
 
Makes a note not to buy Fable 3...
