Which is a better set up for higher framerates in ROBLOX -
Higher-tier GPU and a lower tier/older processor
Newer/higher tier processor with a lower tier GPU

Basically, I'm broke and want to play DRIVE at max settings above what I'm getting now which is like 24fps.
My specs are:
Core2quad @ 2.33ghz
Radeon 6570
5GB DDR3 RAM

To reduce lag, try turning down the gq (graphics quality) in the roblox game.

This normally works for me, as i have a low tier GPU aswell.



With this you should get around 78+ fps.

I did that, and even went as far to underclock my GPU to which there was no performance difference. At highest settings I got around the same framerates every time.
I think it's something to do with the enormous amount of inefficient lua code in that game mixed with my old processor, because I get 60fps on basically every other game I play.

Probably graphics. I have played ROBLOX on 1.0-1.4 GHZ Machines, have good built in graphics with no issues.

Its more CPU Intensive, it recognizes multi-core processors but not multi-core GPU's.

You could have a Pentium 4 and an AMD w9100 together and you wouldnt get that great of a graphical experience, or you could have an i7 and a ge fore gt640 from 2009 and get a fantastic graphical experience.

Go for a better processor, its used or more things anyway and would improve your build more than a new gpu.

The AMD Radeon HD 6570 (1GB) is a sub 100 dollar card, so it will degrade. With 5 GB DDR3 RAM, not bad. Honestly if you're aiming to get lag reduced, just simply turn down your graphics. I run on max with no lag with a GTX 960 2GB, 16 GB RAM, core I5 Quad Processor. But let's be honest, it's over kill obviously.

You can get a pretty decent gaming rig for under 500 dollars providing you already have mouse, keyboard, screen, and DDR3 RAM MIGHT work if you wanna use the same motherboard.

My 500 dollar laptop can barely handle Roblox and it's fairly new, with Pentium Core and 8 GB RAM. The graphics are... well standard.
