When you start up a modern game on a low-specced machine, it may not always use the most optimal graphics settings by default, so before you try anything else, head into your game's Video Options menu and turn down everything as low as possible.
When I say 'turn everything down,' I mean everything. Not only should you lower fancy graphical effects like anti-aliasing, shadow detail, and texture quality, but you'll want to crank down the resolution, too. If running a game at p or less is what it takes to reach a playable framerate, that's what you'll have to do.

It supports a number of different games and offers multiple profiles for balancing graphics and performance. I generally recommend tweaking the settings yourself rather than using third-party software—that way, if something ever breaks, you'll know why and how to fix it.
But it's a valid option if you want it.
