I have Silent Hunter 4 wolves of the Pacific and I have some glitches with it (cant finish some career missions and war patrol problems).

You do not say whether you are running a stock or modded game.

I was wondering was Silent Hunter 5 better?

I would not look at it as being better but being different.
SH4 with the American boats is a good alternative to SH3 and SH5.
SH5 unmodded is unplayable.
It comes to life when "The Wolves Of Steel" mega mod is used and then it becomes an excellent game.
SH4 needs to be modded and there is the excellent Webster's GFO mega mod (see my signature) and also the new FOTRSU mega mod.
Both highly recommended.
The problem with SH5 for you is you only have a 1gb gpu.
You would need to set the in game graphics to low and possibly also reduce some of the sliders to a lower setting.
This could be done by experimenting if needed after selecting the low graphic setting.
There is an application that can help the frame rates called "Antilag" that would help you.
SH5 should however still be considered as it has high quality graphics even when you have to tweak them a bit.
According to vdr1981 SH5 can be played with a 512mb gpu will all graphics set to their lowest settings.
