New pc specs, need advice?

September 3, 2011 at 9:35 pm

I just bought this, and I'd like to know what I should improve upon, if anything.

Video card (gpu)
ATI Radeon hd 5400
2GB video memory
DX9, DX10, DX11 support

Processor (cpu)
AMD Phenom II Quad Core 3.4Ghz rated at 7.2Ghz

HDD
1 Terabyte SATA II Hard Disk Drive

RAM
4.00 GB

Operating System
Windows 7 64-bit
(I've heard 64-bit is a big drain on resources, is there any way to ease that burden?)

Power Supply
500W

For some reason, my Windows experience index is only rating this at 2.1 out of 8!? What's wrong?
