GPU help

[Sir Scruffy]

Hey i was hoping someone should help me out with a problem I've been having.

 

I'm running a AMD FX8350 CPU, 8gb 1600ghz RAM, GTX 650 Ti Boost 2gb GPU and 2 screens on top of that.

When i run both screens playing games on both, sometimes 6 of the same game (3 on each) my pc lags and mouse jolts back and forth making it very hard to play or even close things down, is this my GPU running out of VRAM?

 

I am trying to use MSI Afterburner to see what my GPU is doing and I can't get my head around it,

Is GPU usage, % the % of VRAM im using?

and when it comes to RAM usage, MB is that how much RAM i am using or is RAM usage, MB the % I'm using?

 

please help as i want to fix this lag and don't want to pay what I don't need to, to fix my pc.

GPU usage is represented by a precentage, vram usage is represented by megabytes. ram usage is on a seperate line.

[Sir Scruffy]

Yes but my RAM usage, MB is running at 6142, memory usage, MB at 1549, and GPU usage, % is 99 just from 1 game...

screenshots man screenshots. and u trying to run 6 instances of the same game/ application, which game are u trying to play? and 6 on 2 screen vs 12 on one screen shouldn't be much of a difference, are u sure that both monitors are plugged into the same GPU? or one on the motherboard and one on the 650?

i try run Runescape on 5+ accounts at once on min graphics, if one of them goes any higher my lag begins and everything doesn't work.
does this mean i need to up my GPU or RAM?

the whole dang thing. but you're probably running out of cycles on the gpu core itself.

meaning what, because i was looking at putting another 8gb of RAM in and getting a 1050ti 4gb, would that help or just be waste?

you have enough ram already so more wouldn't do anything to help. your issue is probably the GPU being too weak so i'd upgrade it. see if you can get an rx 470/570 instead.

[Sir Scruffy]

why rx470/570 over a gtx 1050ti or 1060?
