Hey everyone! Thinking about my computer's details and seeking advice to improve its speed.
Hey everyone! Thinking about my computer's details and seeking advice to improve its speed.
Thanks for your message! I recently upgraded my graphics card with around 8 gigabytes of VRAM, but it’s still running slowly and sometimes frustrates me. Could you let me know if my current setup is adequate for gaming? Also, how can I improve my frame rates in games since performance feels so poor at times?
Specs: AMD Radeon 5500 XT, AMD FX 6300 Six-Core at 3.50 GHz, 8 GB RAM, 650 V PSU.
Sorry it really bothers me when I invest in games only to see such low performance.
🙁
I’m still getting comfortable with PCs but I’m eager to learn and appreciate any advice you can share.
What's the budget? Likely we'll require a new motherboard CPU and RAM.
Hey there, thanks for reaching out. To sum it up, you've put a significant amount into that 8g VRAM graphics card, but your main goal is finding a new motherboard that supports an i7 9700k or possibly a Ryzen. The challenge is that swapping the CPU isn't an option, and I'm not very familiar with PC builds. You're hoping to find a prebuilt PC where you can enter your desired specifications, get a budget-friendly graphics card, swap it in, and add your old RAM and adjust the PSU wattage accordingly.
