my gpu is a 2060 asus rtx 6gb card, i've been using it since 2020. it's been a decent upgrade compared to the 1060 6gb card i had before, but the rtx and newer models feel like an improvement. i'm running 16gb corsair memory with an older cpu, a 2600 ryzen 5 3.4ghz 6core 12 thread processor. i mostly stick with what i have because upgrading the cpu isn't really necessary at the moment. i think my older 8 core am3plus fx 8 core 3.2ghz chip should work fine, though the tuf board i have only fits the 2600 socket.

i've managed to play every title from past games, including gta v with mods, rdr2, cyberpunk, and most other good titles, with minimal issues. i know i could benefit from more memory and a better cpu, but the budget is tight. so i'm sticking with what i have.

with my current configuration, a 500 w bronze rated evga psu is performing well. it got really hot recently because of the new windows, and my pc automatically shut down due to overheating over three days. i'm also playing jedi survivor and adjusting the duel gpu fan settings to run at around 40% capacity, which should help it cool down a bit.

anyone have any advice on improving my setup?

I’m already doing my best to maintain the operation, and it looks like the shutdown might be due to the window replacement. If that’s the case, it should be a short-term issue at most, since once the new windows are installed—especially if they’re thermopane—problems should be resolved.

Another suggestion would be to plan your gaming sessions carefully while the window replacement is ongoing. Heat tends to accumulate in homes during the evening, so using well-placed fans could help with ventilation.

I realized I was missing some curiosity, so I thought maybe I mentioned turning the duel fans up by 10% and setting them to 41 degrees Celsius. I wanted to enable it at 41°C, but since I haven’t had a shutdown in a while, I checked for guides on overvolting my GPU. However, I didn’t find any video that matches my specific card and explains everything clearly without assuming I already know a lot about using OC utilization for the GPU. I’ve never had my GPU fail in years before, which is surprising. Now I’m considering getting more RAM and a Ryzen 7 soon. I’m thinking about upgrading from my 6GB 2060 to a 3060 12GB, which is a big jump from 279. I also noticed the 5000-series models are coming out, so I’m a bit uncertain about what to do next. My mind is trying to handle five things at once—computers, music, building, painting, and more. It’s getting exhausting. Still, thank you for your feedback; it’s helpful and I appreciate the read.

The ventilation system in your home is designed with a whole house fan. It's installed centrally in the ceiling and removes warm air from inside, sending it up to the attic where it's expelled through attic vents. This method is both efficient and a cost-effective solution for cooling your house during hot summers.
