Perhaps try using one of the games I mentioned in my first reply at 6600K, then point out that you’re exaggerating. I never said everyone needs a Ryzen 3600. You can go with a 3300X, an 8th or 9th-gen i5, or even an 1600AF and still enjoy solid gaming. How did you come to think my setup was improperly configured? That’s why BF5 and Division 2 felt nearly unplayable due to stutters—clearly it wasn’t because the CPU was hitting all cores at once. No matter the GPU (tested with an R9 290 and RTX 2070) or the resolution (1080p or 1440p). There’s a reason Intel released Coffee Lake around the same time as Kaby Lake. The 7600K was essentially a reused 6600K, not too far from a 4690K, which itself was a recycled 4670K. I’d appreciate it if you could show me where I suggested a Ryzen 7 and new memory for games. Maybe stop overthinking and just admit when you’re wrong or unclear. It really helps.
@Mateyyy : I really don't feel the need to argue. Especially with someone who believes they know everything better. You seem to think my perspective isn't worth considering. It's like assuming a CPU issue is always due to a faulty processor just because you're confident in your knowledge. Of course, it doesn't matter much to you that people test games on 6600K without stuttering or low FPS. BF5? Link Or maybe The Division 2? Link AC Odyssey? Link - those are the games you mentioned. I don't notice any stuttering or performance drops, but honestly - you seem to think your setup is perfect because you've pushed it to its limits. Your OC skills must be impressive, making it unlikely you caused these problems by mistake. You can write a lot of theory, but facts show 6600K is more than capable for games. I have plenty of evidence for that. And you? What's your take on this?
I’d upgrade the i5-6600K to the moon and then get the top graphics card that matches 16GB of RAM if you haven’t got it yet. UwU
