I recently purchased a 144Hz monitor and am now saving to upgrade from the FX8320 to a Ryzen 2600. Curious about the benefits—especially for games like Rocket League, Rust, LoL, and R6 Siege. While I know the frame rate boost is significant, I'd love to understand just how much faster it would make a difference.
It also relies on your GPU, so could you tell me which one you have?
It relies on the extent of the FX bottleneck in those titles. I can mention that it would remove big framed drops and microstutters, though I don’t have direct experience with the specific games you referred to.
Depends on the graphics card and resolution. I'm assuming you're using the same system on your profile - an RX 580 - and that you're running the game at 1080p. If so, here's the video someone made of the Ryzen 5 2600 + RX 580 running Rocket League. Go ahead and compare it to whatever performance you get with your current setup. I saw a video of Rocket League being played on an FX 8320 + RX 480 and a Ryzen 5 2600 + RX 580, and the difference was definitely not trivial, but it looked fairly smooth on both systems.
This would let me purchase additional titles so I could finish up my configuration. It would keep me enjoying top frame rates at 144Hz. Plus, it would provide a superior experience moving forward.
