I don't think AMD Athlon II X4 635 is that bad. It's nearly comparable to the Q8400 Quad Core in gaming performance. HD 6770 isn't exactly a very high end GPU also.

Edit: Oh, my bad. Just realized that the Athlon II X4 635 is under TS' Wishlist. TS, you already have this processor?

Try your HD 6770 first when it arrives next Mon, then report back your findings. Fingers crossed, it will fix your issue in Stronghold 3.
