I recently ran into some problems regarding graphical artifacts. My brother avidly plays games on our PC of varying graphical requirement. Our computer isn't really a gaming computer but for the longest time it's been able to run games like Minecraft, Toy Soldiers, and Universe Sandbox with no problem or lag whatsoever. Recently we've ran into a problem, though. Games like Minecraft, Universe Sandbox, and Empire Total war run with no problems, however other games we own that have similar graphics experience a ridiculous amount of graphical artifacts (I hope I'm using that term properly...).
Anyway, the point is that I'd really like some help finding out what the deal is. The majority of the games that we're having problems with are Steam related, however some of them aren't, and the majority of the games we have that work aren't Steam related, and yet a few are. At first I thought it had something to do with out graphics/video card, however if that was really the case would it act like this?
I'm not the most knowledgeable guy regarding computers, but I am willing to accept any advice given. For those who are curious here are some of our computer's specs:
HP Model e9220y
Processor: AMD Phenom II X4 910 Processor 2.60 GHz
8 GB of Ram
64-bit OS
I know it's not much at the moment, but I really don't know what specs would be considered the most relevant in this situation.
