How Do I Troubleshoot Gaming Performance on My PC? - Lifehacker

Troubleshooting a computer can be trying in the best of circumstances. Troubleshooting specific performance problems can be a hair-pulling experience?especially when those problems are game-related. Have any advice for a fellow reader?

I really want/need to upgrade my lower mid-level gaming PC, but my budget is extremely limited and I'm not sure where my money will be best invested. What's the best and most comprehensive way to diagnose my PC's trouble areas? I've been attempting to do so with a combination of FRAPS, Windows' built-in Resource Monitor, and AMD's Catalyst Control Center, but I'm either not educated enough to piece this data together, or they don't really go into the depth that I need. 3DMark seems to be a great benchmarking tool, but it's giving me some conflicting data from what I'm seeing while I'm actually playing games. Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!
