What parts need improvement?
What parts need improvement?
I'm encountering certain constraints at the moment. I'm seeking improvements but unsure what an upgrade would bring. Am I changing for the sake of it? My financial limits are clear, and I need to know my existing power supply model.
Just in a quick look, you could have a more powerful graphics card paired with the 12600K. If you are playing at 1080, I wouldn't change a thing. If you scaled up to 1440 then it would make sense to have a more powerful graphics option for more frames or more eye candy...but, the thing is, on paper the hardware as is makes a lot of sense both from a performance standpoint and value.
But really, getting down to the bones of it, the above post is spot on.
Thanks for the response!
I generally experience minimal lag, but frame drops occur when doing multiple tasks at once—like streaming on Discord while watching a video. I’m also looking to upgrade for better performance. The budget isn’t a concern as long as the value is there. Plus, I’d like some improved parts, such as more RAM (4 sticks vs 2).
Power supply: 800W Gold
i don't know any 800w models; they're usually around 750 or 850w.
a bios update could bring you a 14700k.
if your psu is solid, consider upgrading to a 4070 super that's coming out by the end of jan 2024.
alternatively, there might be some good deals on the standard 4070 during clearance sales.
or simply go with a 7900xtx or 4080 super if the budget allows and 4k at 12600k should work fine for now
I really have a strong feeling about the 14th gen it seems like a cheap imitation
maybe 13600k but more so 32gb of ram and a top-tier GPU !!
